COMMENTS:
Rose was awake and alert all day, she ate well, but required a lot of coaxing.  Dr. Vesper was still eating breakfast when I arrived at 10a, I think he was a late riser today. He did go back to bed after breakfast, but only had a few minutes before getting ready for church. He came home after his workout at the gym and spent most of the remaining afternoon going through the mail, reading and watching TV.  He did go outside to walk around and when Sandy arrived around 3p, he spent some time talking with her.

COMMENTS:
Rose was not a big fan of showering and dressing today. Once dressed in warm clothes, she was very pleasant.  Rose had a late shower today (after lunch and 2 PM meds) so she was just starting to get sleepy when everyone arrived for dinner. She ate well and enjoyed dessert.  Dr. Vesper went back to bed after breakfast, but didn’t sleep as late as he has the two previous days.  He dressed in his jeans, so I thought he would be going outside to enjoy the wonderful record-breaking weather, but he stayed inside, went through the mail, read and watch TV until everyone arrived for dinner. Mary Lou, Stephanie and Debbie brought dinner, Rose provided the Graeters, Andrew and the girls cleaned up. Mary Lou made her mother’s recipe of French stew, it was delicious!

NOTE:
All went well with Hillary spending time inside on night #2

COMMENTS:
Rose was quiet and relaxed, she ate well but slowly and have a nice afternoon nap. Dr. Vesper had his normal Monday, slept until church, have a nice workout, and spent the afternoon reading and watching TV.  After dinner we worked on developing a relationship between Kemper and Hillary. By the end of the night  they were sleeping on the floor within a foot of each other. Hopefully, they will be coexisting  before the first snowflake  and Hillary will be an indoor kitty, then aunt Stephanie won’t have to worry about her freezing to death.

COMMENTS:
Rose was very quiet today, no nap, finished all of her food, but took a long time and with lots of coaxing.   Dr. Vesper went back to bed after breakfast and didn’t come out of the bedroom until 5:30p, except to go to the bathroom.  I did hear the TV on mid afternoon, so I’m sure he wasn’t sleeping the entire time. I teased him about being mad at Rose, because he stayed in his room all day, but he seemed fine once he was in the living room.  I had already done some dinner prep,  so it didn’t take long once he was up.  He ate well and was in a pleasant mood.

Rose had an average day, ate very well, good nap in the afternoon and not overly rigid. Dr. Vesper was up, ate breakfast and was back in bed before Elena arrived @ 9:30a. I had to get him up @ 1:30 so Elena could clean the bedroom.  He never went outside the house except briefly to fill the birdfeeders.
