Still has a few abilities
I had brought my dw a few towels but only one color and I brought an example for her. Her work isn't as good but it only has minor imperfections. For 2 days she keep counting the towels. I left this morning after her breakfast, I had to mow. I got back this afternoon and lo and behold she had a towel done. Praise the Lord. She was in the hall when I got there with the pass around baby talking with a lady. I am gonna start giving her more time alone to get acclimated and socialize.

Thanks I was really surprised. She had a mme the other night, that is so hard to watching tough on the pwd, I am curious about the score. Her last slums was a 12. But I go with what she still has, not what she doesn't have. I was almost thinking of taking the towels home, but not now. I brought her another easy craft she likes, it's a coloring she does. She makes it look like a stain glass window. If she does one I'll post it. I am hoping this place is gonna work out!0

It's great that she can get into doing something like that. You've had a hard enough time. I hope this turns out to be the best place for her.0

What good news in that your dear wife seems to be settling in well, and what a wonderful thing in that she has been able to retain some of her craft capabilities. It is a good idea you have to give her some space so that she can begin to acclimate a bit more as well as socializing and making connections with others more freely. Well done - may this be a good care match.
How delighted you must have been to see the completed towel; the photo of it looks perfect.

TBE, so happy for your dw. Her towel looks beautiful. It’s so great she still enjoys doing her crafts. You might be right about giving her some time to socialize and meet others. Give her a little time and yourself also. Take care.
