Today was exceptionally busy, especially for Dick.

The nurse, Megan, from VNA came over again today to recheck Dick and to redress the wound on his leg with a new ointment.   I have great hopes for this medication.

She left and we finished breakfast and then Bobbie came because Dick had his hair cut appointment at 11:30AM.   We got there on time with no trouble   Janet was ready for us.   The hair cut is at Shear Delight at the Plymouth Care Center where Dick spent his recovery.  We saw Lori, his physical therapist from that time and several other of the care givers.    Anyway his hair and beard are all cut and trimmed and he looks and feels good.

Home again, Bobbie, Dick and I feasted on brats, rice, broccoli and salad.  I had made an apple cheesecake for dessert.   

We finished before Dick's next appointment.  A physical therapist from VNA came and put him through his paces.  She was very nice but will not be the regular person. 

Needless to say, Dick is exhausted.   He has not had that much activity in one day in months.

Bobbie and I racked the last of the gallons of wine in the winery that  are about ready for filtering and bottling.   we figure that we can do that about the time I am back from Ireland.

So it was a truly busy day.  Tomorrow will be busy for me as I am having lunch with the girls and working at Rhine in the evening, but Dick should be able to rest up a bit with any luck at all.

So the day is done and I am glad.   Roxie got tired of all the visitors, except for Bobbie of course.   When we went downstairs to rack the wine, she was in "her" room so we just got to business.   We had the door almost shut.   She figured out where we were and was quite annoyed with us as she had to push the door open herself.   She yammered at us for quite a while before forgiving us.



So Have a nice Friday

God Love You
