How are you doing on his Monday morning? I started today at 5:55am caring for Chris. It is a cool 56 degrees this morning and not bad at all. I have no real plans for today and that is the way I believe Mondays should be. How about you?

We will be getting ourselves together for our mini-trip to Prescott over the next couple of days. We will be leaving on Wednesday morning and returning on Friday afternoon, a very short trip. A respite type trip that is needed very much. The coffee is good and hot this morning and that is a good thing indeed.

We I had better get busy and I am headed for the Bow-Flex for a workout this morning. Have a wonderful day all and stay safe.

Later........................

Good Morning JT. Have a good week in school and at work.

Sharon, you have to stop eating those TV dinners, smile.

Good Night

Good Night All,

Well the fire in the fireplace has gone out so I guess it is time for me to hit the sheets. Elise and I sat by the fire and we had a good glass of red to relax. Elise called it a day a before the fire went out. Mike just left and I will check on Chris.

We had very nice dinner at Buddy's Grill with Elise's Mom. Elise had trout and veggies and a baked potato. Her Mom and I had the meatloaf and gravy with veggies and Au gratin potatoes. Of course we shared a bottle of red. For dessert Elise's Mom had ice cream with chocolate sauce. Elise and I shared a drink made with ice cream orange vodka, and something else but it tasted like a cream sickle. It was great!!

Well I had better get to sleep and look forward to MONDAY!!!! Hope your day went well?

Night...............................

Good Night JT.

Rosie, glad that you liked the photo of Chris.

Pearl, good luck with your turkey. Cook it in the oven. Glad you liked the photo of Chris.

Good Night Mary. Have a great upcoming week.

Good Afternoon

Good Afternoon,

We are back from breakfast and Elise is caring for Chris. I just took Elise's Mom home and I will stop in Blockbusters to pick up a DVD. I am on my way to a place called Total Wine. It is a new store here in the Tucson area. I am going to purchase a couple of bottles of champagne. One will be Don Perignon and the other will be Veuve Clicquot. We will keep them on hand for a special event or New Years Eve.

Elise is giving Chris a bio-feedback treatment, he gets one every Sunday along with some up time in his standing frame. The later is not his most favorite thing to do at all. After Chris is relaxed we will just hang around until we go out to dinner with Elise's Mom this evening after Mike arrives to care for Chris for the evening.

I am back from getting the champagne and they did not have the Clicquot as advertised in stock, a bit of a disappointment for us. Well I will chat at you later in the evening after we return from dinner.

Cheers....................................

How are things going so far on this fine Sunday morning? I started the day at 5:50am by looking in on Chris and getting him settled. Elise will be caring for Chris this morning. I have my coffee in hand and Chris and I are listening to a CD called New Age Piano. I love it and so does Chris. It is very relaxing and soothing and it has put me into a very nice mellow frame of mind.

We are going to go out to breakfast with Elise's Mom this morning to a place called The Hungry Fox. The food there is really good. Elise's Mom surprised us last night because she wants to take us to dinner this evening at Buddy's Grill. We were planning on going to the movies this evening after Mike the caregiver arrived, but dinner at Buddy's Grill is a winner.

Well, I had better get myself together and check on Chris. Have a wonderful Sunday everyone.

Later.........................................

Good Morning JT, h0w are things going in Tempe? I see that the Sun Devils won the game yesterday. We lost to Oregon.

Jeanne, you and the girls would be a welcome sight to show up on our mini-trip to Prescott. We would have a good time and I am sure we could throw down a few Margarita's, eh?

Marcie & Cher, you have given some great responses to emails. Their is nothing stronger than the will and foresight of a strong woman. I appreciate you very much.

Erika, a good glass of red wine after a good show is an excellent choice. Wunderbar!!

In the above photo Chris is thinking about Turkey Day.

Pearl,yes Chris was saying hello in the short video.

Night,nite!

Good Night,

It has been a very good day, today. I picked up Elise's Mom at 4:30pm for dinner. We had buffalo burgers, fries, pickles and ice cream. It was outstanding. We watched our Wildcats lose the football game but they played very well during the second half, but Oregon beat us.

We took Elise's Mom home after the game was over. We returned home and Elise called it a night. I will stay up until Mike leaves for the evening, and I will check on Chris. We hope that your day was a good one as well?

Cheers.............................................................

Cheers.........................................

Good Morning JT are you still going to be the best man at your friends wedding?

Sharon, that is so funny that you are hungry after you read our blog. We prefer reds over white unless it is a high end white because it gives us headaches, go figure eh?

Pearl, so glad to hear that your Mom is doing much better.

Ross, talk about senior moments, I have been getting them more often than not lately.

Herman, what are you guys doing for Thanksgiving?

Good Night

Good Night,

Well it has been another good day. Elise and I went to do some shopping for her Mom for the holidays and afterward we went to the movies. We saw The Secret Life of Bees it is excellent. We returned home and Brent the caregiver returned with Chris from Chicky Cheese. We left for dinner at Cody's Beef and Beans. Elise had a salad, prime rib with real horseradish, baked potato. I had veggie soup, country style ribs, beans, and fries. Of course we shared a carafe of Burgundy that was pretty good.

We returned home and we sat outside at the fireplace, and we had another glass of Burgundy. Elise was pretty much done for the day and she called it a night. I stayed up until Brent the caregiver left and I checked on Chris before I decided to turn in a well. It has been a good day. We wish everyone a good night.

Bye...................................

Good Night JT.

Herman, we will contact you about our choice for Tempe for the month of December.

Mary, it was so good to hear from you today about the coins in a jar. I have been doing this now for many years.

Morning,

I started today at 5:40am caring for Chris and Elise is well she is still counting those lizards this morning. I just put on the coffee and Chris is enjoying his ride in the Pink Cadillac along with Sister Re. Come on coffee, hurry up, smile.

I believe that Elise is feeling even better today at least I hope. After Brent arrives this afternoon to care for Chris we may go to the movies and maybe just maybe we will stop at Starbucks to grab a Frappacino as well, they are really good. While at Starbucks we will people watch as well.

Also later in the evening we will start a fire in the outdoor fireplace and just chill for a bit. Well, that is our plan for today, we will see if it takes flight. The coffee is done and I am headed for a cup. Have a good day everyone because the weekend is near.
