Take your party elsewhere redirect

We had a somewhat normal day under the circumstances. A few trip to take my spouse ‘home’. Ran a couple of errands, as we do to help the day go by. Pre-Dinner trip was to daughters farm, where she got to visit with daughter and granddaughter. Made two post-dinner trips. The last one after a quiet discussion in our bedroom so as to not disturb the others in the house (none) we decided it would be better if we completed our trip and went home where we could sleep in our own beds. Trip completed. Straightening up before bed, talking about the dog sleeping on her bed. Spouse went to the bedroom, came back and announced: “You re going to have to take the party somewhere else, i have kids and adults to put to bed.” After a few attempts, i realized she was telling me i would have to go and take the people in the living room. Asked if her husband was here, because he asked me over because i wanted to borrow one of his tools or get a report for work.Received a hearty “BYE” and a wave as i left. Our daughter had called when i told her what was up. She asked for me a couple of times. I had gone outside took of my coat and waited a few minutes and came back in. I was ME again.

Question: How can one redirect a person when these things happen? This was the first time something like this happened. It is usually after repeated “where have the parents gone” (both deceased) and I cannot provide anything other than ‘visiting friends/family/church meetings or went away for the weekend/day” or a phone number where they can be reached or the note they left, ‘they always leave a note’. Sometimes works, sometimes not. And, short story, i am asked to leave. Again daughters intervention and a trip outside and back resolve things.

I am getting used to not being recognized, it is happening more often than not later in the day (sundowining). But, dread the time when I am asked to leave and cannot recover. Anyways, any thoughts would be appreciated. I will check back as best as I can. Thank you.
