Well this is different... writing in the morning instead of at midnight. We'll see if it helps my spelling. I have my doubts.

So what's new. Went for an "assesment drive" Sunday afternoon to see how I felt about Glen continuing to drive. I will admit... I was really surprised. If anything, Glen's driving has improved! He's much more cautious and far less agressive than he used to be. Of course... that was Sunday, and he hasn't wanted to drive since! He's talking about going to the Y today.. but that's only a couple of miles down the hill.

Went to the attorney's office yesterday and got everything signed: Living Trust, Wills, Power of Attorney, Advanced Directive. Just knowing that's all in place is a huge relief. Still need to get copies sent to various "powers that be" like Kaiser and the Lockheed and UTC benefits people but that's the easy part.

Glen's energy level seems to still be way down. He took Monday off, worked half a day yesterday, is taking today off. I've asked him to find out from his boss or the benefits office exactly how much sick leave he has coming. I know where to find the info on his vacation time. Since we're going on vacation next week any way, I may try to talk him into just planning on taking the next 2 weeks off. It really is time to start transitioning him to disability. It's a scary transition.. but one we need to face.

John Chickosky is joining us for dinner tonight... further inspiration to remove the top layer of retriever hair from the carpet! Had planned on spending the day cleaning house and grocery shopping... now I need to add in making sure Glen's ok, and probably a call to the doctor. Hope John's up for pizza!

OK, guess I'd better get to it.
