Dad's Weekend

Dad had a nice weekend.

Bettie watched Dad on Saturday so I could go to exercise class. When I got back home Dad was already asleep at 8 p.m.

On Sunday we went to church. Afterwards we had the buffet at the dining hall. Dad was mad when I suggested he eat his dessert. So I decided it was time to leave. We spent the afternoon watching football and playing miniature bowling with Collin at my house. Then a pizza dinner and cake for dessert.

Dad got up about two in the morning and came to my room. He talked about something and finally went back to bed.

Today Dad goes to Dr. Southard, dermatologist to check his skin for pre-cancerous growths. Then to Senior Services for the day.

Jason and Ashley and Collin Visit Dad

Jason, Ashley and Collin stayed over the weekend at my house. Dad came over on Saturday and he and I watched Collin while Jason and Ashley went to get the wedding rings.

Collin kept running around the sofa where Dad was sitting (Dad was enjoying the Imaginary Friends on the Cartoon Channel), so finally when he climbed over Dad, he grabbed him and started tickling Collin. Collin got off and proclamed that "he was ticklish". Anyway he later "poked" Dad in the face and Dad lifted his legs and tripped Collin. Collin and Dad seemed to enjoy it!

On Sunday my friend Ann watched Dad. Dad explained how he was trying to keep the Red Chritmas plant alive until Valentines Day. (a challenge sometimes).

Dad woke up early and took off his wet clothes and sat in the chair. The night before he had taken off his briefs and replaced them with two pairs of boxer shorts.

Dad's Weekend

Dad woke me up about 2 am Saturday morning. He was chomping on nuts [He stood at my doorway until I woke up. In my dreams I thought it was the vacuum cleaner]. He wanted to talk about something, but I convinced him to wait until the morning. He spent the rest of the night in the easy chair with the afghan covering him completely (face included).

We went to church on Sunday. Dad was able to walk down the aisle just holding my arm and his cane. As we were leaving he was able to maneuver up the aisle by himself.

Today Dad went to the podiatrist to have his toes trimmed. Sometimes, when the doctor touches his big toes he starts to cry out, then he begins to laugh a bit. Not sure if it hurts or just scares him or both. The podiatrist told Dad to just relax his feet, but Dad keeps wanted to wiggle his feet a little.

We then went to Senior Services for the day. They made gingerbread cookies; he brought back a couple. When we left Dad wanted to make sure that all the ladies who were still there (about three) were "taken care of".
