George had his Friday lunch skype with Sharon today. He even got to meet some of their neighbors. He ate all of his lunch and was busy ‘cleaning’. He was going to take a short nap but he didn't want to. I had him get on his shoes and then he decided on a nap. We were going to go out but his short nap turned into a long one. I left him a snack and something to drink before I left. 

I had to wake George up today. He slept all day yesterday! After he was ready we did his exercises and then he had a shake. We went and got his flu shot at Walgreen’s. Thanks for the reminder Sharon! :) We looked around the store and at the Halloween decorations, he wasn't too into that. Usually I’ll get a grin when I put on a mask. ;) We took a drive up to the mountains to see the changing leaves. It was pretty. Mountains of orange and yellow. I made him something to eat before I left.

George was sitting outside on the porch in his robe, it was a nice day. He wasn't quite ready to come in yet so we sat outside for a bit, enjoyed the weather and watched the neighbor’s and the mailman. When he was ready, he went inside and took a shower. The plan for today was to have a picnic at the park. It ended up being too windy to do that so we went and had lunch and then walked around the mall. He saw someone he knew at Hallmark; Tom Shimizu (sp?) and his wife. He pointed at Godiva so we went in and got a chocolate. When we got back, I got him a snack and he watched TV.

Today is lunch skype day with Sharon. We did George’s exercises first, he was distracted but we got them done and then I showed him pictures of the boys on face book while we were waiting. He wasn't talkative today. Sharon and George ate together and then Georgetook a little bit of a nap. I had him get his shoes on and we went for a drive up to the mountains to see the snow! There was a lot more than I thought. We had to wait for construction on the way down :/ He had a snack, read the paper, watched TV and took a nap when we got back.

(There are 2 more pics on photobucket of today).

We went to the Krishna Temple today. When we got there we went back to the Temple; we took our shoes off first. The girl that was showing us around was explaining things to us and let me take pictures of the Temple. She gave George a rose and blessed him and put a ‘third eye’ on both of us. We looked around the gift shop afterwards at all the Indian things they have. It was interesting. She was talking to George in the gift shop and he said “I’m Japanese, she’s American.” She was a really sweet girl. We went to Wheeler Farm and looked at the pumpkin patch and then to the ‘Halloween house’ to see how it was decorated this year. When we got back, I made George something to eat while he watched golf.

(There are 5 more pics on photobucket. Good luck, it's changed and might be hard to find.) :/

I was surprised to see George up again and dressed. He was sitting outside on the porch. I went in and got his sunglasses for him but he decided to come in. While he was back in the bathroom, he took a shower and got dressed again. I bought us some Jamba Juice and then we took a long drive to the downtown area. On the way, I noticed a Krishna Temple and thought it would be fun to go there. There was a sign that said they give daily tours. One of the Monks came out and talked to us. The temple is closed on Monday’s. We’ll try again. We finished our drive, stopped a couple places then went and had sushi. (The guy at the restaurant came and talked to George. His Dad or Uncle is Sage and he also knows Dennis. His son worked for him). George came home and got in the shower again.

It has been a cold few days. It has already snowed up in the mountains! George was up and already dressed and pretty much ready to go :) He had a lunch skype with Sharon and ate really well again today. Sharon showed him the weather out there and it looked pretty nice. He took a little bit of a nap and when he woke up I got him another Ensure. We did some exercises after that and he did really well. He wanted to keep doing more walking. We practiced sidestepping and he did good at that too.

It’s a really overcast and cool day today. It’s supposed to rain. I think it’s going to go straight to winter type weather without even having a fall :( I went over to the house a little later today thinking that George would still be in bed. When I got there, I was pleasantly surprised! He was up, dressed and walking around! He had been up since early in the morning without even a nap. I had him do his exercises and he did really well! We
even did a couple more than we usually do. We got his jacket on and went outside to check the mail and then came in and had lunch. He ate a lot. After lunch we took off the spring/summer flowers from the tree and put on the fall flowers and leaves. He did really well at putting them where he wanted them. I did some laundry and he helped me by putting his shirts and pants on hangers. I got him the lint roller and he cleaned up his blanket on his bed a bit. I gave him a massage and took him out on the couch to lay down to finish it; he fell asleep afterwards. I went and got a blanket for him so he could take a nice nap.
