Dad's 3

Thur. to Wed.  We are getting settled in and enjoying the time we are having with dad.  I am able to see how great a nurse and her knowledge of things are.  The Hospice care is wonderful.  Everyone has a great concern for dad and his well being.  We are able to get out in the afternoons for a swim. We still have some care for the car and the rig.

Sat.  The windshield came in on the rig.  We were told they would come to the rig to replace it.  We cancelled the insurance while we are storing it.  They told us they needed to replace the windshield in there shop.  The owner had a tag he will use while I brought it to them.  They would come and escort us.  After I got there we found out I was to high and wide to fit into their shop.  The  pictures below are the team that worked on the rig.  They had to take apart a lot more of the rig than I thought they would.  They got the job done seven hours after I got there.  It was to take two hours.  While they worked on the rig I was able to get the rest of it washed.  I had to do it in the sun which was very hot and made the rig hot to touch.  On the way back to the storage area it rained and the bottom is now dirty again. When I got home I was exhausted.  The hot sun toke it all out of me.


Sun.  Linda went to church in the morning and I went to a pot luck dinner and church in the evening.

Tues   Linda went to see our new family Dr which she really liked.  Hospice had a person that sat with dad while the two of us went out.  Dad has been wanting us to go out to dinner for our ann. (top left, as we were leaving) We were able to go to a restaurant on St. Pete Beach called Rumfish Grill(top two right pictures [the fish tank, folks are able to swim in it twice a day]).  They had a summer special for Appetizers; Tuna Poke (with miso dressing-wakame-sesame oil) and Spiced Blue Crab Bisque (with sherry-thyme-cream)(bottom left). For dinner we both had Hoisin Glazed Salmon (with sesame vegetable-coconut jasmine rice-house kimchee).  For dessert Classic Florida Key Lime Pie and Chocolate Cheese Cake(bottom two right). The food was soon good.   We did not finish dinner or dessert so we have lunch for the three of us on Wed. It felt so nice to get to go somewhere together for the fist time in 6 weeks!  We felt like teenagers going on a date!!



Wed. I went to our new family Dr. I to like him very much. Took dad with us for a swim. We only could stay 10 min but it was worth it.
