Karen Berg, PA Visit on Wednesday

Karen came for her visit. It has been six weeks since the last visit. She asked Dad a few questions. He replied that he was miserable but when she asked further he said that in general he was doing fine. She also checked the "hard place on his inner arm" and seemed to think it was doing okay. She will plan a visit in about 3 months. She said we can call at any time if something comes up. (I have her card next to the phone in the kitchen.)

Afterwards I talked a bit with Ilene and we talked about changing her schedule. She will look it over and share her thoughts soon. She was open to all my suggestions.

I also mentioned the laundry detergent usage and Ilene said that her son thinks she uses too much also so it doesn't bother her to be criticized. She will try to limit her wash to two times a week with small and/or "emergency" loads in between.

I told Ilene that my sisters think she is doing a great job!

Dad's Weekend

Saturday went well. Dad watched a lot of golf and I worked on the jigsaw puzzle (after going to my morning exercise class in the morning).

Later we went outside and looked at the tomato, pepper and watermelon plants that Ilene had planted. Dad had mentioned that he needed to clean out the gutters so I thought he might want to go outside for awhile. I did a little weeding and Dad sat on the side. He took a slight tumble while seated, but was okay, since he didn't fall much and it was on the grass. (Next time I will not let him walk with his slippers on; he might have had better balance with shoes). He laid there for awhile and then said how decrepit he felt.

After a while we went back in and had a nice fish meal. On Sunday we watched some more golf. Dad's eyes really lit up when he watched Tiger Woods sink the winning putt!

Today Dad complained that someone took $26,000 out of the account. They made him sign a paper. I told him we would call up Chip later and talk about it and that seemed to satisfy him.
