COMMENTS:
I put away groceries before getting Rose up and giving her breakfast.  She relaxed when I cleaned up the kitchen. After lunch and 2p meds, Rose had a nice nap.  She had a late shower after her nap.  The showering process took a lot out of her today, she was pretty well spent after that, ate dinner with her eyes closed. Dr. Vesper went back to bed after breakfast, but was up in time to leave for church & the gym. He arrive home a little after 3p, snacked on a protein bar & coffee while going through the mail and reading the WSJ. After dinner, they watched TV while I cleaned up the kitchen and prepared for bedtime routine.

NOTE:

COMMENTS:
Rose was unresponsive and nonverbal today. She seemed comfortable and ate well, she did take a nap, but only a short one. Dr. Vesper had been up, ate breakfast, and went back to bed. I woke him just in time to get ready for church and the gym. He had his usual snack of coffee and protein bar when he returned home. After going through his mail and reading the WSJ, he watched TV until dinner. Dinner, clean up and bedtime prep all routine.

NOTE:
Eads Fence was here today to resolve the gate issue. He had a long list of reasons why the gate wasn’t working properly. I recorded his explanation, which I will save to discuss with the family when everyone is home for Dr. Vesper’s birthday.
