COMMENTS:
Rose was cheerful and relaxed today, she was quiet,  but more talkative in the afternoon. I spent some time on the phone with Nationwide Ins Co regarding storm damage coverage, downed tree. Also, talked to Charlie Hoh (neighbor) regarding responsibility of tree removal,  after making a trip up to look at the location, he determined it was on the property line and said he would take care of it.

COMMENTS:
Rose was in her happy mood today, which means showering and dressing went well. She was cheerful all afternoon and a lot more chatty than she has been the last few days. We had lots of excitement with a large tree down across the driveway in back of the middle school, due to very heavy rain and High winds.

COMMENTS:
Rose got up in a cheerful mood today, was very relaxed. Tiffany came at 5p for the 5-9p training, which covered dinner, evening medications and bedtime routine. We had a bad storm, which brought a tree down across the driveway, causing a bit of a delay, but all work out well in the end. Tiffany is a little nervous about her upcoming solo, but I feel certain she understands all of her duties, including the lift and I’m sure she’ll do well.
