I have a lot of excuses but doesnt make it right. Ok the first excuses are valid. I didn't have internet service on Jan 2 & 3 but yesterday was inexcusable. So here we go because we have catching up to do.
Jan 2 & 3
Mario continues to depend on me for getting up. My shoulder really hurts. That's my bad shoulder. I have to talk to his other caregiver and see how he deals with it. Maybe he assists him during the week and he expects it. He definitely deteriorates as the day wears on but that doesnt make it ok. Sunday was a good day. I actually persuaded (with the assistance of his daughter Saturday) to use his cable. I cut out the list of the Comcast cable channels out of the Sunday paper and taped them to the back of the remote so now he knows wht the channels are. Anything but Judge Judy. jeopardy i don't mind but 3 hours of straight judge shows will grate on anyones' nerves. Sunday we watched Goodfellas. It's been forever since I saw that movie and it was a nice refresher. I couldn't believe he actually didn't change the channel ONCE. And he made it through the entire movie! He is usually down for the count shortly after 8pm after flipping some channels. But he was up til 9pm til the very end of the movies. Nice end to a long weekend.
Monday morning flew by. One hour of work and I'm done. I even got to leave early because Earl got a ride to work again. I caught the early bus and took a cab home from the square. I wanted to get home early so I had time to take a leisurely shower and scrub the smell of Mario off me. He doesn't smell or anything and he is always clean but I just want the smell of hsi house off me. I wanna smell like me and my body wash and wrap myself in my nice puffy towels and linger around in my robe for a little bit and not have to rish to get dressed. John said he was an early bird and is up at the crack of dawn. He also said that he would probably be early which means I needed more cushion time to be comfortable. But I am getting ahead of myself.
I spoke to John after I put Mario to bed. It was brief but we discussed our plans for money to take the ride to Allentown. He was determined to send his picture in an email. Well, I looked at the Gmail spot and I couldn't figure it out. Apparently, he did better than I did because he sent it! Gotta go into settings. I wouldn't have thought of that it is usually pretty evident how to attach files. He is cute. He is self degragating at times like he mentioned he needed Just for men hair dye and his bout with cancer is defintely an issue for him because he brings it up alot. Its ok with me. Shit happens! He is well now and I know its part of his recent past so maybe its because it is sooo recent. So now I know who I am meeting so we are off to a good start. Our conversation didnt last long because he is early to bed early to rise.
So I went to bed but of course as usual I couldn't sleep. Maybe anxiety did it to me. Always worried I am not gonna wake up on time and I don't wanna get held up on a Monday when I just wanna be out the door. I left my stuff at work I will do my laundry there. It's such a pain in the butt to transport the very same clothes I am gonna wear again anyway home just to wash I will just buy some detergent to keep there with my stuff. Less than 12 hours til our meeting.
