George was still in bed today when I came over. Dennis was home and said he might have gone to bed around 8:00 this morning. I cleaned, went in occasionally and checked in on him. When he got up, I fixed him some lunch and he finished his weaving project. He ended up wanting to do more later on Wednesday. I was sitting with him at the table and he was looking at the weaving 'stuff'. I asked him what he was thinking and he looked at me and pointed and said "White ones". So we put the white strings on. Today we tied it off (I'll have to ask Ryan how to do it, it's not working when I do it. This project is meant for kids!) He took a nap on the couch afterwards while I finished up the laundry.

George took a shower first thing when I came over, he was in his room and wasn't dressed yet, seemed like a good time to do it ;) He seems well rested.
I'm not sure how his weekend was, but we weren't able to get out of the house today. He is more alert today though. I fixed him some lunch and coffee and we sat outside for a little bit and looked at his neighbor's dog and at his flowers. He came inside to finish his lunch and he did a little bit of weaving while he was eating. He chose the purple color to start out with.

I went over a little early today so George could skype with Sharon today. We had a bit of a problem getting it started but once it was up, they visited and had lunch. He went to show her his doll that he's had in his room for awhile. (It's one of the dolls that his wife made) He got a kick out of showing it to Sharon. He is still a bit confused and tired today but a lot better than on Wednesday :) He took a nap after he was done with his skype visit with Sharon.

I came over a little bit earlier today and George was in his room remaking his bed. I let him do his own thing for awhile when he was done getting part of the way ready. He layed down and took a nap, I helped him finish getting ready when he woke up. Dennis said he has been really confused the last couple of days. I had a hard time redirecting him on what to do today too. When he was ready and after I pulled the car out, I went in to get him and he was in the bathroom. He didn't want to go anywhere cause he had been in the bathroom a few times. He was pretty definite about it. I pulled the car back in the garage and made him some lunch at home. I gave him some Metamucil too. Hopefully that helps :/ It was nice when we were going to go out, but it turned into a blah day outside. Hopefully we can get out Friday even if it's just to the Senior Center. Maybe skype first? ;)

April 9, 2011

I didn't go over to the house today.

George was already finding things to eat today. We had lunch together first then we went back to finish getting him ready for the day. When he was ready, he talked to Sharon on skype :) It was snowing after he was done with skype so we did an art project. I let him choose from...the yarn thing, rocks on his box and buttons. He chose to put rocks on his box. I showed him the picture of the three of us (George Sharon and myself) at Snowbird at the mining place. I put that inside on the top and he pointed where he wanted me to put the glue for each rock. He had to put some back and get the 'right' one to put on. He took a nap while the rocks on the top dried.

When I drove up there were some recycling items by the mailbox. George was looking out the door when I came inside and asked me what happened to it, I told him I put it away. "Oh you took it." He finished getting dressed then I gave him three choices of where he wanted to go and eat, Chinese, Japanese or American. He chose Japanese and when I asked where, he pointed to Mt. Fugi (They were closed, I forgot they are only open for dinner now.) We went to the place on Highland Drive instead. When we were done with lunch we went to the barber shop to pay Yao for the haircut on Friday. We came home and George got in the shower and then we decorated the tree with the flowers and the butterfly's that we all got when Sharon was here. It looks nice and springy :)

George was in the front bathroom cleaning today. Everything was out, even the drawers. When I asked him what he was doing, he pointed to underneath the sink and said "It's dirty." Glad to see he was up and being active. We went back to his bathroom to get ready for the day. When he was ready to go, I had him choose from some cards I picked out. We went to lunch at Paradise Bakery and then to Cactus and Tropicals. We were there for a long time looking at plants and flowers and just everything they had there. He ended up getting a small plant and two flowers, it wore him out. When we got back, he started cleaning.
