CP slept late again this morning but woke with some energy. He and Nancy went for 2 walks, played checkers and went out for ice cream.
Nancy's Notes:
Today was a good day. CP is not "swimmyheaded" but he did get tired on the walk. I encouraged him to turn back for home and he didn't want to so we went one house further. After we got home we sat out in the back yard on the patio, I put the umbrella up so that he could sit in the shade. While we were sitting there he asked me if this was Reid's house. I gave him a Missouri Conservation magazine and he seems to be enjoying learning something new.
When I got home at 5:00 Reid was mowing. I carried in the groceries, fixed CP's dinner and he wanted to eat in "his room". I took it down to him and he was in a grumpy mood. He told me that he might as well just lay down and die. Said, "I've lived beyond being useful to anyone." I asked him if he'd had a bad and and he said that he had. I asked him what made it a bad day and he said that all my life all I wanted to do was retire and have nothing to do. Now that that's where I am...I hate it.
We are going to try to get him out of the house more often. We'll see if that helps!
