Buona Sera!

Buona Sera!



How are you doing? We have wind, clouds and it looks like we might get some rain. How was your day?

It has been a pretty good one for the most part. Chris and Elise both got their massages. All was going well, up until I took over caring for Chris.

I gave him the once over like we always do to make sure that all is as it should be after the caregiver left. Well, today it was another (SNAFU). During my check I found that Chris's catheter was not on securely. So, I had to put him back to bed, underdress him, re-catheter him and I had to give him a bed-bath. The catheter was changed by the caregiver and once again she had a short-coming. While I had him in bed, I started a (laser) treatment as well. This always changes my mood, but today I am not feeling well, and it just made things worse. I am still not feeling well this evening.

I am caring for Chris tonight and Elise is in the main house watching to news. Chris is resting and watching TV.

My playmate prepared corn on the cob, mashed potatoes, cottage cheese and baby carrots for dinner. My appetite was not the best tonight.

Tomorrow is going to be another stay-at-home day. The water tech is coming out to change filters in the osmosis tank. They gave a window of 9am to 11am. I hate waiting around for windows. So that means I have to be here until Elise gets back.

You get a good night's sleep so you can be ready for Taco Tuesday. I will chat at you later.

Buona Notte...Jessie and Elise

Buona Sera!

Buona Sera!

How are things going for you today? We are good here. The month of September is the busiest month for my playmate and me. We have a lot going on. 

I got all of my tasks taken care of today and that is always a good thing in my book.

Chris and I watched a horror movie this afternoon and we loved it. 

My playmate prepared breakfast for dinner. We enjoyed homemade pancakes, eggs, and sausages. We watched "Midsomer Murders" on a DVD with Chris. My shorty and I try to guess who the murderer is and most of the time we are incorrect. Smile!

I enrolled in Alison Medical Courses today. My first class is a continuation class on "Dementia". I started the class today.

Well, I am sure that my loyal blog followers are ready for the pictures from our camping trip in the mountains. We enjoyed our short get-away very much. We got plenty of rest and relaxation. We got plenty of exercise as well. We both slept pretty well. I did hear the rustling of woodland creatures during the night outside of the cabin. We saw several deer, and we saw a baby bear crossing the road on our way home. We enjoyed our outdoor meals and the firepit was very nice at night. We took a hike to the "Bathtub" the water was freezing. My shorty suggested that we (skinny-dip) in the "Bathtub" but there were way too many eyes around. Smile! Enjoy the pictures, they will give you an idea as to how much fun we had. Enjoy!


























I am caring for Chris tonight. He is resting watching TV and downing his supplemental drip. I will give him some yogurt for dessert.

Get a good night's sleep so you can be ready for "Hump Day". Tomorrow is "Chefs Day". We will be tossing about pots and pans in the (cucina). The dinner will be "Chicken Gnocchi" with string beans. My Sous Chef will select a good libation to go along with the meal.

Buona notte...Jessie and Elise
