This week we didn't do a whole lot. But here are some highlights:
1. I pointed to his photo with him and mom and he said, "that's me!", when I pointed to mom, he said, "that's my wife, that's your mom!" It was cute.
2. we went to the senior center and he was on the bike for about 20 minutes straight! And then he got on a couple of rowing machines and was on those for another 15 mins. It helped that there was an interesting cooking show on tv. He really likes exercising.
3. we watched a dog show on tv twice. He really liked it.
4. today we went to Costco and he was really concerned about how much we were buying. He wasn't in a good mood so he wouldn't try any samples. Later we went to Cactus and Tropicals and he picked out 3 flowering plants. He did really great there and walked quite a bit. Then we went to World Market. I though he'd get a kick out of all that stuff. And he seemed interested. He looked closely at a lot of things. At last we went to the Tofu restaurant and he laughed at the sign, "just tofu". He was trying to figure it out. I forgot I had to pick up my rental car and needed to get home soon, so I packed all the food up and made him leave :( He said, we're going home already? He still had food in his mouth. Oops. Oh well, we were out for about 4 hours. Yesterday, he was really really tired. Thursday was the last day of hospice and the nurse gave him a flu shot. We didn't know it'd end so quickly so we didn't get to say good bye to Elise.
5. Tonight, he talked a LOT! But he was upset about Trevor, Carl and Ryan. I couldn't understand everything he was saying, but he had a lot of energy and was talking to them very loudly. He kept saying he wanted permission from their parents to come here (he's always worried about insurance if something happens). And he wanted a signature. and he told Ryan to watch over Trevor or something... He wants others to ask for permission to stay in his home... seems logical! Ryan showed him some new Christmas lights that he plans to put up. Dad was happy and liked the new ones. He kept saying take those one's down and replace them with these.
