Today, I got up at 4AM. William and I are so used to getting up early for the pool. Even when I cannot make it to the pool. Our regular pool is closed, so when I have the morning shift, I cannot make it to the pool. But, we are up anyways. We chose to listen to the news.

I manage to snooze a little. I am up at 6AM. I get up and showered and ready for work.

I drive to work and stop by the donut shop to pick up some kalouches and donuts for the kids at work.

I get to work early. We have a whole new staff of technicians and we need to be very organized in order to keep up.

The caregiver comes to the house at 7AM. I am gone by the time she gets there.

The day at work is crazy busy....William has a dental appointment at 2PM. I get off at 2Pm. I have the caregiver take him to the dentist. He had to have a cap replaced and a filling done. A old cap had fallen off last week and he a temporary in his mouth for a week.

I get home at 2:45P and fine Wm and the caregiver at home. I tell William that we have to get ready to go the pool. The new place that we are going to...takes us 30 minutes to get to.

William is not excited to go. But, i think that I surprised him and he gets ready to go. I change him into his swimming trunks and I change and get the towels and the change of clothes ready.

We get to the pool around 4Pm. I keep him walking in the pool for 45 minutes. I get to do my lap swimming. William counts my laps while standing in the warm pool.

He has his shower. This is always an ordeal. But, I like to shower at the YMCA.

I ask him where he wants to go for dinner. I have not eaten all day. He decides on Jasons.

I drive us to Jasons and William chooses a California club. I choose a meatball sandwich.

While we are waiting for the food. William mentions that he would like to have some ice cream. They have a serve yourself ice cream machine. So i get him icecream to start. and of course some root beer to drink. William ends up having the meat ball sandwich. I assumed as much. He loves meat balls. i had the California club. They were both delicious.

I stop by the grocery store on the way home. Wm even says "do you want me to go in with you?" I say, 'no". It will be faster by myself.

I cannot believe it. It is almost 7Pm by the time we get home.

I still have to do some computer work for work.

William says that he is tired at 8PM and goes to bed. I then finish my work and decided to check in on the board.

Debbie's blog prompted me to write about my day.

Debbie....I let alot of things slide. I just do not have time to do baseboards and etc. I had done a little knitting. I love to knit and sew and read. I just do not have time to do alot of house work.

I do have a caretaker that does light housecleaning and the laundry and the dishes.

William was so happy to get out. I told him that we did well today. He agreed. We are a good team and can get alot done together.

Keeping him busy is the best thing. It is tiring and means that I have to let things slide. But, I am glad that He is really tired and can sleep well. I also sleep so well.

Good night all.
