Today when I came over, George was outside looking at the fish in the pond. I went over and told him hi. He said “What are those fish doing?” I told him they were playing because it was nice weather. He motioned that they were following each other. As I was cleaning up a bit while George was getting ready, Hideo (Sp?) came over for a visit. I helped George get ready so he could visit with them. When he saw their car he said “Oh nice car!" He was showing them his rocks and his box that he made. We had lunch at home today; I had a hard time keeping him awake. I asked him if he liked my new shirt (Roses), he gave me his OK sign and said it looked really ‘clean’ and it was ‘nice’. I told him we were leaving soon and he needed to get ready (“We’re leaving in 15 minutes…10 minutes…”) I got him to get up. We went to Lowe’s to get some more flowers; they were having a sale. (He wasn't too thrilled about the idea of going to the cemetery). We took the wheelchair with us and I kept asking him if he wanted to sit down. No…no…no…he was just pushing it. I’m glad he wanted to walk. He finally sat down. He was pushing the cart and I was pushing him. A lady walked by and said “That’s team work.” When we got home, he was showing me where he wanted the flowers and then he got in the shower. It looks like it’s going to rain.

Hi Jody,
Now the comment box looks like it used to. I hope this one posts! Anyway, I didn't know that Hideo and Kayoko came last Friday. How nice! It's great to see him showing them his rocks. I think I was watching the camera before you got there and he was standing by the window looking out. Looks like he was up and active so no wonder he was tired. Looks like you got him out though. Sounds like a busy day! Sorry about skype today. I was out when you texted. And when i got home to type in your skype name it didn't show up. maybe I typed in the wrong one? Anyway, I hope yu are out having fun!

Hi Sharon,
Glad the blog seems to be OK. Ya it was really nice of them to come. They were re-surfacing the road on that day and it was supposed to be closed til 5ish. I was worried when I saw a car pull up :/ someone took the baracades down, guess it's done early :) Ya he seems to be getting up earlier and he's dressed when I get there. No problem about skype, I'm glad you got my skype name on too ;) the one at the house was saying I had the wrong password. He seemed a little resistent to go to the antique shop even though he wanted to check it out. I told him if it was boring or if he didn't like it we could leave. He seemed interested looking at everything :) something different to do anyway.

Hi Jody,
An antique shop sounds like a good idea. He likes to look at interesting things. I wish there was a place where he could pick things up and touch them!

I just checked the camera today and it looked like he wasn't out of his room all morning :( I see you went in there --it's 2pm. I hope he isn't getting sick again.
