Finally made the bed.

I just got the clean sheets on the bed. I change them out every time. Its tiring, but I wanted to make sure I had fresh sheets on the bed for later. George is watching T.J. Hooker, which gave me time to do the job. Keep him busy, I get work done.
He still struggles to talk, and what he says sometimes makes no sense. However, that might be perment and it's a lot better than it was. I can understand him. For the most part.
Not sure if we'll go outside today, because he has days where I can't seem to get him off the couch. That concerns me. But I have to roll with the punches. I can't force him to do anything.

He's doing the best with what he has. But, I do find doing some tasks tedious.

Is he back functional yet? Sounds like he is not Sometimes with strokes, they could seem much better but in other areas and heard empathy or understanding people's emotions is more or less out the window for them at this stage in their life.
It does not sound easy at all,much respect miss Lady. I am not sure what advice would help you, just who knows. Things surprise you sometimes, sometimes they do not, but like you said keep rolling with punches and see what happens.

He's a year out-post stroke. And he's done remarkable since. He has his good days and his bad. But, I make sure to praise and encourage him every step of the way. Even if he says he doesn't need praise like a kid, he does. I know how he feels. I have a TBI and a lot of things tire me out easily. I run into times where I'd rather sleep then do anything. We're a lot better then we were a year ago. He can walk, he can use his hands.

My husband is stubborn too. I just have to bite my tongue and move on. I don't want an argument. Have a good day.
