I'm exhausted, but the housework is almost done.

Today has felt long. I got a lot done. Killed it with both Myles and Survey Junki, and back to power through some more to keep earning those pennies here. The dishwasher is done. Just waiting for it to cool. George brought both the trash and recycle bins back up the hill and into our fence. I even got him to get the mail, I think. So, for him, that's doing a lot. Plus, those are things he'd do. So, to see him doing them is a good thing. He wants me to leave him alone, but I don't think so. I'd love to, but that's not a risk I'm going to take. He doesn't want to do much of anything, but I'm still afraid to leave him alone. He's getting stronger at least. He's just not there yet.

You are absolutely right to stay on him, and I am glad to hear you are.

@kaylachan Does he ever see anyone besides medical professionals?

@AmbiePam Not right now, no. He does see the neighbors if they happen to be outside. He does call out to them, too. We've had other professionals in our home, too. Such as AC repair, inspectors for said ac and so on. I've handled most of it, but George had done his usual watching them work.

I am happy to see him trying to do the things he's used to doing. It shows he's getting better.

I can feel you. When my father got sick before, I am scared of not being with him.

I'm glad you're watching him. My husband got out of bed at the rehab facility and fell. They found him on the floor. Sigh.
