Easter Weekend
Dad and I went to the Easter Mass on Sunday. The whole church was full! But by the end the seating at the back was more roomy!
We went to Jason and Ashley's house and Grandpa gave Collin an Easter Basket. Then I went outside with Collin and helped him find the boiled eggs. Then I hid the plastic ones and he had fun finding them. Collin's other grandfather Irwin hid some candy as well, a lot around Jason't car!
Then Ashley and her sister Jennifer prepared a brunch with Scrambled eggs, bacon, sausage, biscuits, a variety of muffins, sausage gravy, fried potatoes, Monkey bread, French toast casserole, fresh pineapple and strawberries! Dad wasn't eating much, but just let him sit and he finally finished the whole plate!
We then went home and had some food from the dining hall: lamb, sqaush, green beans, Mashed potatoes. Dad picked at his food, but when we went back to his house he had some mixed nuts and chocolate.

Dad's Weekend
It was a fairly quiet weekend. I worked on the jigsaw puzzle while Dad watched the basketball.
On Sunday we went over to my house. Dad did not eat too well on Sunday though he did try everything, just didn't eat very much. He did manage to finish the ice cream in the evening though.
At the dining hall on Sunday a man came over and talked about his service in the merchant marines in WWII and asked about the size of the Destroyers that Dad served on. Dad didn't say much but he obviously enjoyed the conversation.

Dad Weak Today
Dad has been in bed all day. Every time I try to help him up he just falls back into bed. He is hurting but I don't know what exactly.
He didn't eat dinner, just some pecan pie and nothing today, just water.
I left a message for Dr. Lichstein. Also the nurse did not come last week--I thought she was scheduled to come. I called the Bayada nurses and Barbara was going to call Theresa and find out what is going on.
Ilene should be here. She can monitor him tonight and see if he improves. I also asked Suzie to drop by after work if she is up to it.

Drive with Dad
I drove down to see Jason's new house with Dad (about 60 miles). Jason wasn't home--out getting his TV screen fixed. One of the remote controls for the Wii system got thrown at the screen and tore it a bit. I guess those games can get violent! It is nicely sodded in the front with straw in the back that will hopefully grow grass really soon. Inside it is airy and nice with a small bedroom next to front door that will be used for computer room. There is a nice master bath with a very large tub! Not sure if it is a hot tub or not. The toilets are lower than Dad's though, so he was surprised when he started to sit down. I was too!
When we got back Dad was too tired to get up and eat dinner. He barely ate 1/2 of a pecan pie. I hope he is okay. Maybe he is coming down with flu or just tired, not sure.
I hope the ride did not tire him; I thought he would enjoy the change of scenery. Oh well.
