COMMENTS:
I took care of Hillary & Kemper and did chores until Dr. Vesper woke up at 10:45a. He had breakfast and took his morning meds.  I had put off giving him a shave and shower until late this evening because of the pool party scheduled for tomorrow. A little after 11, I got a text from Stephanie saying the pool party had been moved to today at 3:30. After he finished breakfast, I gave him a quick shave and a shower, and helped him get dressed. He relaxed in his chair while I tidied up the bathrooms and put out fresh and towels. In the afternoon he had a snack, did exercise and watched TV. I had planned to do the grocery shopping tomorrow morning, but a quick trip to IGA for picnic necessities solved the problem.  Andrew made some great burgers and dogs on the grill, and with a few side dishes, we had a nice farewell to Summer dinner. I set the table with morning meds and breakfast for tomorrow. After all the guest left, Andrew and the girls headed home, Stephanie was the last one to leave at 11. Dr. Vesper took his p.m. meds and I helped him change into his PJs and get ready for bed.
