Today (Wednesday)George was awake when I came over! We got his weight at 100 lbs. and his BP was 90’s/60’s. We went to the Clark Planetarium. We ended up going to a later show (Glad they had them available this time). We got lost in the parking lot! I said “This is crazy” George was shaking his head saying “You’re telling me”. We got the run around of where to go but once there it was a good underwater show. We went to lunch at Hooters after. He said he’d never been to a place where they ‘dress like that’ before. He said his waitress had a fat a**, made me laugh. It was a long but fun and funny day.

Today, George was really talkative. We spent about an hour or so just talking, it was really nice. He called Marissa a “Young chick”. He is so animated in his expressions. We went to a new Chinese place that is just opening up in the Sandy area; it’s called Kahoon’s. We were the only ones there. We talked to one of the girls working there for a long time; she though it was pretty cool that George was named after a president. She learned a lot about him and you know he likes to talk :) While we were there, he asked me if I had a tattoo on my chest (It was just a vein). Kinda funny though.

I’m baaack. I was on vacation last week and Sharon was with George for the last 2 weeks before that. I’m glad to be back :) Today George weighed 101 lbs! Wahoo! He gained 1 lb. Course it could be from the knee pads. (Thanks Sharon) His BP was 116/63 (I think). After that we talked for a bit, I showed George some pictures on the computer where we went. I reassured him that I am still going to be around. We went to lunch at the Jasmine and came home at 3:30. We got caught in construction and when we were finally able to go he said “Go, go go” while he laughed, it was funny. (I thought PT was coming today for some reason). He fell asleep on the couch when we got home. He seemed pretty tired today.

Today we had leftovers for lunch; I had great plans today, to go to the Clark Planetarium. They had a show that started at 1:30. I didn’t get there till 12:30 and by the time we ate, it was too late. :( George seemed excited and interested about it. I’m sure he will love it when we go. We ended up going to Cactus and Tropicals instead, (after he visited with his neighbor). He bought a lot of flowers that he wants to plant in the backyard. His weight was the same at 100 lbs. and his BP was 130/60.Very good! (I’ll be taking his BP every Wednesday too.)

(This week I am coming over on Mon. and Wed. instead of Wed. and Fri. because of the 4th of July)

George and I went to Rock Creek Pizza for lunch. It took awhile to get him out, he was pretty confused and not able to stay on track, I think due to his change in routine. After lunch, we went to the driving range at Pebblebrook. I was surprised at how well he did! :) He was hitting all the balls on the first try, and hitting them far. (At one point though he was calling them "basketballs") I really wish I had the video camera! But I just wanted to get out of the house, I forgot, I will bring it next time. I did get a couple of pictures though. He was telling me how to hold the club and how to hit the ball. I hit a few, but not as good as him! It was nice weather while we were there; it was a little cloudy and windy. It did wear him out though and I think he was sleeping by the time I closed the door to leave ;)
