Dec. 3rd, 2022 03:46 pmI was able to get to the craft show last night. I enjoy the vibe although some of the folks can be weird. I sold a few things and my friend sold out of her trees. I go just to show what I do. Show my best and let the world see me. It's not important that I sell while I still have a job, but it is good when I do. I get off on knowing that something I make will be part of someone else's Christmas traditions. On an annoying note I had 3 calls from medical people after 5 PM... OMG leave me alone.
Today I woke up to give Dad the 5 AM pill. I am trying to pill train him. Next week when I am at wrk I will have his phone alarm go off. I expect him to call upstairs and tell me that he took the pill. Then he can do what he wants. I will give him tasks.
At 7:30 my phone started. I had 8 calls by 11 and a visiting nurse at 11:30. Grr...
For the first day Dad looks okay. For a few days he had a haunted wide eyed look. I hadn't seem him in a week and he lost 15 more pounds. He lost 40 pounds since October 16.
This afternoon I was able to clear out the entrance to the cellar so the new oil tank can come in on Wednesday. It took a couple hours. I am rather gratefully that it is warm and rainy today. Trying to conserve oil has added to my anxiety levels.
Right now I am pretty tired. Dinner is baked fish. Not hard to make.

That's a lot. Maybe his task should be trying to regain some of that lost weight?

I hope he works with it easily. :)
HUGS, Jon
