I have been remiss, and for that I apologize. It is getting harder to write when there is nothing positive to report. Glen's breathing is definitly beginning to decline, as predicted by his doctor. My own guess is that this decrease in oxygen is contributing to the worsening of the dementia symptoms. He is becoming more difficult to live with. Yesterday he kept getting up from his nap (and believe me.. getting his rest is VITAL). He finally said it was because he wanted to watch Wendy Williams. I said no, you're going to rest. If you want to turn on the TV in your room for a little bit, I guess that's ok. So later that evening, he was doing the power grind thing with his teeth and when pressed for a reason informed me that it was because I wouldn't let him watch his girl friend.
I actually was able to get out and get my hair done today!! Then Rushi and I grabbed some lunch. We were looking for a parking lot to just park and eat our Jack in the Box chicken and what do we drive past but Zorba's!! For those who haven't known us for 30 years.. Zorba's was the site of our wedding reception. So I pulled in.. and it's closed.. boarded and chained. Kinda figured somehow. When we spotted the giant bee hive on the corner, we rolled up the windows and decided it was time to leave.
Landscaping is moving forward as finances permit. I really hope to get it finished in time for Glen to be able to enjoy it.. he's not going to get the retirement he so dearly wanted ... I fear it's going to be a close race. Our contractor and his wife are simply saints. If anyone needs a landscaper in San Jose, I can give you a thus far unqualified recommendation.
And so it goes. It's been fun to see that folks have been inspired to go through old pictures and post what they find. When the time comes, I may be lifting a few.
