We tried reducing Don's Prednisone to 5mg. but will have to put him back up to 10mg. tomorrow as the drop in dosage effects his breathing/coughing too much. He's been eating very well and asking for food which is unusual. Don's activity level hasn't changed and sometimes he actually balks at a suggestion that he do this or that. We'll just see how that goes for a while and we may have to have a 'heart to heart' chitchat.
I hope it warms up a little this week so I can get out to my bird feeders as they need to be cleaned and filled for the winter. I do enjoy watching my birds. I find it to be very relaxing and uplifting. Gods tiny creatures busy living another day. This past week I have missed Skeeter more than I have in several months. Again, I think it's probably the onset of winter.
In the past few months I have been trying to let my hair grow out to about midway to my shoulders. Well...that just isn't going to work. I don't have the patience to mess with my hair so tomorrow I'm getting it cut back to the short look I've had for a few years now. It's easy and quick, and usually looks pretty nice. The only other option is a perm and I don't want to start that whole expensive routine!
This week I have set myself some 'goals' to get done. Tomorrow Don sees the cardio doctor so while we're out I will get some errands done. Don will get too tired rather quickly so I'll have to pick the most pressing ones to do first. Wednesday is the day Joe visits Don, and the Medical Center volunteers are having a jewelry sale that I may visit because a jeweler donates his time and replaces watch batteries which I desperately need.
Lord, your presence gives me solace and, at the same time, strength. I ask your special blessings on my family that they may stay loving and healthy and hold onto their integrity. Please continue to embrace my soul. Amen.
