COMMENTS:
Dr. Vesper got up while I was carrying in groceries & supplies. He had already starting eating, so no glucose reading.  I put away  frozen/refrigerated items only, then got Rose up and dressed for breakfast.  After breakfast I finished putting away food and supplies. The afternoon consisted of physical therapy, naps & TV.  Sandy came over this afternoon and got the salt spreader on the truck, still don’t have the snow blade on, but hopefully a good layer of salt will help with the ice.  TV after dinner, pm meds at bedtime.

VISITORS/WORKERS:
Sandy Hayslip – Borrowed insulation for frozen pipes

COMMENTS:
Dr. Vesper was at the table eating breakfast when I arrived at 9:45a.  The police was just leaving, not sure what happened, but think he set the alarm off when he put Kemper out and when Dial One called, he didn’t remember the passwords so they called the police, only a guess, he didn’t remember what happened.  He went back to bed after breakfast and slept until 1:30p.  Rose was wide awake @ 10a, I got her up and ready for breakfast. After exercise and lunch, she took a long nap and was still sleeping when Susan arrived @ 5p.  She was sleeping so well I didn’t wake her at 4:30 to go the bathroom, Susan said she would take her when she got her up for dinner, which was helpful, since I’m still on bending & lifting restrictions from my eye surgery last Friday.  I was supposed to be off today, but got called in to fill-in for another caregiver.
