She loves the day club,  but sometimes I think she might be onto me. The other morning we were in the car on the way there and she turned to me and asked, "what exactly is the purpose of this place we're going, anyway?" I answered the best way I knew how.

"It's a place where people your age can spend the day together so they don't have to be alone all day." I know she has a fear of being alone and it's the bigger reason we don't leave her alone anymore. 

She said, "well, that's a good idea and they really are all very nice there." Then she added, "you just make sure you tell them that I'm not an inmate there and that I still have all of my faculties."

I assured her,"they already know all about you, Mom."
