April 21,22,23 Ruth

Very nice week, came in on Monday morning and talked with Sylvia about what happened over the extended weekend. She told me that she has Bill walking around the house 3 times a day and that they are keeping pretty active. Sylvia is doing a really good job, everything that I outlined in the initial training is being accomplished, Bill and Jean seem to be content.

Friday 4/18- My sister came down from Flagstaff and dropped off Jean's chairs and leaves to the table in the kitchen. Jean and I mailed her a check on 4/22, we wrote the amount and check number in the BLUE binder. The invoice is also in the pocket of the binder, in case there are any questions.

Sylvia and Jean ordered some clothes from Casual Living for about 500 dollars. Sylvia said that she tried to get out of it, but Jean was very insistent. I let Sylvia know that the next time Jean gets the shopping bug , Sylvia needs to tell her she will order it online. By ordering it online, it magically becomes "out of stock" or on "backorder." Jean ordered 4 pair of the same flip flops in different colors. The only problem is: Jean can no longer wear flip flops, they give her no support and her toes fall off the side of the foot board. We just got rid of a lot of her shoes and now she is buying more.

Tuesday- Jay painted the silver stripe on Jean's breakfast table. It took an hour, we then moved the glass table top from downstairs to the table upstairs. Jean was very irritable yesterday. At 5pm we met Cookie and Cis at Ruth's Chris. Bill has been asking to go there since January. After dinner, Cis was a little confused about who was taking her home. I asked Bill, "is it okay if we drive Cis home" he turned to me and said in all seriousness, "Can't she walk?" We all got a good laugh out of that one. We drove Cis home and then we were home by 8pm. Got them settled and in their PJ's. Lights out at 10pm.

Today- We have a 2:15pm appointment with Dr. Khaled's Coumadin clinic to check Bill's INR.

3PM Dr. Campbell- foot doctor.

4pm Early Dinner-

7pm Jean and I will go grocery shopping for some supplies.

I showed Sylvia how to get on to the Internet and the blog. It will take her some time to figure out the technology, hopefully we will see a blog from her soon.

Have a good weekend
