Richard's up and going again

We have had a good day until an hour ago. Richard hopped up out of bed this morning and was up all day. Even walking without his walker. I finished painting the downstairs wall.

Go to Sleep and Why are You Yelling at Me

Well we've been up since 3am again. For some reason he thinks I'm deaf this morning. I fixed him 2 cheese sandwiches and he finally went back to sleep. He keeps waking up and wanting to get dressed for the bath aide at 10am. I was forceful with my request to go back to sleep the last deaf yelling... Sign in to see full entry.
