Day 205
(Sunday and) Monday December 16, 2013
Physical:
Saturday night/Sunday morning was a bad night. But Sunday was a relatively calm day. DH ended up being up a very long time (due to insisting on getting up so early). Sunday night he woke up after only 3 hours, and it was very difficult to get him to go back to sleep; but once he did, he slept all night. He did, however, again insist on getting up early. He had only been uup about an hour when the CNA got here, and then he slept until mid afternoon.
This morning he was "at the aquarium"; but by afternoon he had sort of accepted that he was at home. He's been very calm this afternoon, so I hope for a good night!
People:
On Sunday the kids were here as usual, but the day was different. TGF had to take her oldest to the next town over for a date, and the smaller ones were to go to a Christmas party. We got shopping done, but there was no time for any other projects (like reading mail). Today the CNA came earlier than usual, and the rest of the day was quiet. I made a call and was waiting for a reply, which did not happen - very annoying.
Emotions:
Well, I had the silly idea that I had a small slice of time I could sit here and write. DH was in a weird place. I couldn't figure out how to work the lift chair .. turns out he wanted to watch what I'm watching because "Big Bang" was a rerun (they all are!!). So I changed his channel .. but he wanted me to stay in there. But then it was time to get him to bed. And things went downhill from there. No details needed; but I have to find some way to get him to grasp the fact that in the evening he is too tired for anything but straight from wheelchair to bed. If he doesn't like it, too bad. I can't deal any more. Even the nurse and CNA aren't supposed to try to lift him because he's too heavy and too unstable.
Right now I'm too tired to even think, much less write.
