sorry I missed yesterday, no idea why, just did not get round to it. My new carer came just after 9am, I had a shower!!! Managed fine.
My carer was first in this morning, I just had a strip wash and cleaned my teeth. DB followed me more or less straight away, he had his breakfast and then had a dizzy, so has spent part of the morning asleep.
We had words last night about his eating, he cannot cut things up, moans the knives are blunt, they are not, I cut his meal up, he then announced there was too much for him to eat, there was too much on the plate...........I had to shut myself in the bathroom whilst I had a quiet scream...........He seems to want to eat slop all the time, complains he cannot chew, his teeth are not sharp enough, should I get the dental techie to file them all to points????? So today I am doing sausage. mash and veggies, he had better eat it!! If it was fish and chips it would be gone in a trice.................
My right knee seems to be responding to the cream I am using, the last couple of days it has been quite comfortable for a change, I use the cream 3 times a day.
I am going to nip to Aldi whilst he has his siesta, I need some baking spuds, something else he will eat, but wants the skin soft, so I do them in the microwave, finish mine off with 10 minutes in the pressure cooker.
I need to do some serious thinking about the future..........watch this space. It does not involve moving either!!
Am glad your shower went so well and know it is a pleasure to be nice and clean! Good to hear that the cream you use on your know works so well to dull the discomfort. What is the name of that cream? You can email that information if you choose to.
ReplyDeleteHope you don't lose patience with DB's need for you to cut his meat or make soft food for him from now on. Dearie me!
Will be interested in hearing what you're contemplating for the future.
We went to the post office today to mail a high school cuff bracelet to the high school where my parents and mother's sister all graduated nearly 100 years ago. DH polished the cuff bracelet and it looks brand new. The librarian at the school is so excited it's on the way to her.
Also went to GoodWill to pass on good clothing and other things that others can use.
Made a fritatta for DS2 this afternoon and am whipped. He was very appreciative.
Hugs!
