George was dressed and sleeping on the couch when I came over today. He chose to go to the sushi place on Highland drive. He told the guy there that owns it “I remember you; I used to live over in Holladay…” When I asked him what he wanted to do he actually said “Let’s go over the

mountain” and he did that wave motion with his hands for the ski jumpers. I told

him they weren’t jumping yet but that we could go up. We were walking along Main Street and he said “Can we go in there?” It was a southwest store and he was in there for quite awhile. (He hasn’t said that in a long time, lately he just shrugs his shoulders and says he doesn’t care where or what he does). It was so cool that he made that decision. :) A lot of the shops were closed and don’t open until the end of May but it was still fun to go up there with him. It was cool weather up there. When we were leaving the shop there were people coming in and he said “There’s lots of stuff in there.” (He got the pictures in the mail today. Thanks Sharon!) There are two more pictures of Park City on photobucket.
Friday May 13, 2011
George was sitting at the table eating chips when I came over. I asked him if he wanted to go out and eat he said he didn’t, and he was hungry anyway. I come over a little later on Friday’s so I just made him what he showed me he wanted. We ended up eating outside cause it was such a nice day! Really hot compared to how it has been. He saw an airplane and mentioned that it was going to “California.” It was just a mellow day today. I asked him a few times if he just wanted to go for a drive. He just waved his hands and said “I don’t feel like it.” He just wanted to relax and enjoy the day. We sat outside on the front porch and watched his neighbors and just talked. It’s so nice and peaceful out on the porch. He got in the shower today too. Maybe Monday we can skype with Sharon.

Thanks Jody! I'm glad to see the blog works for you now. It's odd though. I thought I posted comments on the previous 2 but they're not there. Oh well... I think I was suggesting that maybe you could add hours to other days and skip this Friday? David and I will be there at 10am. I hope you can maintain your hours for the week and thought this method may work. I'm glad to see you went to Park City and had fun shopping! Its great to see him taking interest. I know he's anxious for the jumping to start. I was going to check with you about skyping, but I figured you were out havng fun:) We'll be out soon so I'm not too anxious to skype.
Thanks again! And see you soon,
Sharon
Thanks for everything Sharon! Talk to you soon :)
