COMMENTS:  Dr. Vesper got up around 11:30, he took his a.m. meds with breakfast. After breakfast, he did PT, nap and TV, in that order.  I had planned  to give him a shave and shower in the afternoon (early dental appointment tomorrow), but he insisted on waiting until after dinner.  After dinner, his excuse was he wanted to watch the presidents  speech. He finally ran out of excuses when I told him he would have to get up at 7a tomorrow. He took his p.m. meds and made it to bed around 10:30. I prepared morning meds and breakfast for tomorrow while he was watching TV before his shower.

COMMENTS:
Dr. Vesper was up at 10:30, ate breakfast, took morning meds and did his usual reading. We did exercise in the afternoon,  followed by a late lunch.  He  it was pretty quiet today, except for a nice long phone conversation with Mary, she calls almost daily, but most of the time it’s just a short conversation. He dozed off a couple of times, but didn’t sleep very long.  He went through his mail and read the WSJ while I warmed up leftovers for dinner.  He watched TV until bedtime. I set the table for breakfast and prepared morning meds. He took his p.m. meds and I helped him get ready for bed.
