Day 196

Day 196
(Friday and) Saturday December 7, 2013
Physical:
Friday was a quiet day for DH; he stayed in bed all day.  Partly because he didn't feel like "bothering"; but also because I couldn't get the remote in the living room to work, so he just watched his TV in his room.   He asked to have his hair washed, but the CNA can only use a chemical "dry" wash.  I don't much like the way it makes his hair feel .. but we'll have to wait for a warmer day to attempt a regular shampoo.  On Saturday he got up early, and stayed up until around dark.  He was still awake after 11:00 though.  I was told he ate pretty good, though a lot was snackis and treats.  
People: 
On Friday the CNA came as usual.  A friend came by and helped me with some decorating.  On Saturday DSS spent the whole day here with DH.  I spent the day with DS and DIL and grands 2 hours away.  TGF was here from mid afternoon until we got home.  I think it was a bit of an eye-opening experience for DSS to see what I deal with daily. When they brought me home .. 10:30ish I think .. everyone stayed and visited a bit.  That was actually very nice (at Thanksgiving the families were divided because of the space).
Emotions:
Getting Christmas decorations up helped my mood a lot.  I still have more to do, but I'm less worried about it now.  I don't even care if trees get decorated (although I think a lot of the grands plan to tackle that next weekend).  I got extremely frustrated with DH this morning.  But I had a good "day off", and I'm really trying to be more patient.
It's a very very cold gray wet day, and that makes it hard for me to accomplish much.  I have laundry to do; but thankfully tI did not come home to a big mess last night.  I may move furniture today .. that should make me tired enough to not get moody in this weather!
