Day 175

Day 175
Saturday November 16, 2013
Physical:
This was a fairly good day.  DH slept until around 2:00, and I got him up when company came.  After they left he wanted to go back to bed, but I did persuade him to eat a bowl of soup first.  Just as I was getting him up, we had a few more minutes of company; and then I got him to ged.  That was around 5:00; later in the evening he semi-woke and watched his favorite show.
He coughed an awful lot during the night.
People:
This was an extraordinarily nice day.  Two nieces, a nephew(in-0law), and a  Totally Adorable great-nephew came by for a visit.    They were here a couple of hours, and we both enjoyed the visit SO much.  Plus, my niece helped me sort of box of papers .. was able to reduce it to a quarter of what it was!
After they left (as mentioned above), DH's cousin came by for a quick visit.  His sister had a birthday party cookout, and since the cousin was so close they came by.  The one disappointment (which fortunately, DH is not even aware of) is that his brother, who lives over an hour away, was at the party .. only 3 miles down the road from us.  But he didn't come by or even call.
Emotions:
All over the place!  I was anxious in the morning, wanting to be sure the house looked nice but frustrated at being unable to see other than that there was no "big" clutter on the floors. I was super happy during the afternoon, and DH seemed to be doing well with only some mild confusion (quite unlike this day has started!).  I was disappointed about DH's brother not coming over; but I did get some very good news on the phone later in the evening.
