Burn Out
OMG; Julie, if I do this again, please hit me one time upside the head, I will get it, promise! LOL.
Bruce's next Botox is Monday. He has been working so hard on the exercises PT gave him. His follow up Botox eval was not good and we were so hoping that Monday, Physiatrist would be pleased with the improvement from the exercises.
Next Wednesday is blood work for the Diabetes management. All of this was scheduled three months ago, so not like I didn't know.
But NO, Debbie has to push the envelope. The overnight at Foxwoods required a lot of planning. We did not grocery shop, so of course, needed fresh produce and meat.
Winter is upcoming, so planned on furnace cleaning and we needed some flue work, so that was all afternoon. Bruce did not nap - too much noise. I had to put him in the shower once the water was turned back on and that was the start of what is turning out to be a very difficult week.
Tuesday was the repair of the windshields of both vehicles. They did a terrific job. Changed the wiper blades, washed all the windows and vaccumed the front areas. Still again, no nap for Bruce. He did exercise.
Erma today. But I realized I have hairdresser tomorrow and will have to leave him alone, again after leaving him alone all morning. And while it is nap time, Bruce understands that I will not leave him alone in bed. So guilt charges in. I load him up this afternoon so we can get through errands. And I got take out lunch.
Carl and Debi to come for dinner tonight. Debi is not feeling well. But Carl says he will come and take out the AC. Furnace needs air filter change. Serviceman always did this for me. But I find out from Bruce that was because Bruce had a stash of filters down there. Well apparently we ran out of those. Repairman ran me through the change, but I can't get Bruce down there and Carl is coming, so of course had to get the air filters. I replaced it fine, but just the supervision from someone who knows what I am looking at.
So now, I have totally blown his diet and his exercise routine. Plus he is exhausted and confused from no nap. Tomorrow is to be the same and Friday we both have Eye Doctor at 1 pm. The hits just keep coming!
I am exhausted and I have to wait to medicate him for the night - LOL. All I want is to grab Kira and go to bed. Poor Carl, he thought he was coming to store two AC units. Ended up with three - he did not know of Mary's unit in the guest bedroom; locking down the windows - my hands are just too bad to do this; taking down three boxes of books and moving three more to the door and the furnace filter change. LOL good thing he loves us.
Saturday will be a down day unless I can think of something else to jam in there - LOL. Debbie
