Frustration

Today, I barely got enough sleep, but I did. I cleaned out very little of my bedroom, very little. Then, I tackled coloring my hair. I supposed Tommy found some very old boxes. The first box of color was very still and would not run. So, I tossed it. Then, I tried another box of color. Tossed it. Third box was okay and in date. 

I cannot raise my arms to put color on hair at back of neck. No, Tommy cannot do that simple thing. He had color all over me. I finally got it on and hopefully correctly. 

Tonight, we watched most of a very good movie, forgot the name. Bette Davis played twins and one murdered the other. I could tell every mistake she made to get caught. We did not watch the rest. 

Have you seen Tony Shalhoub's "Breaking Bread?" You might like that. 

I have had friends who had to go to wound care for horrible wounds/sores. Tommy has one leg from knee to foot that is raw, swollen, hot. I described the debriding, digging, bandaging and continuous daily care and doctor visits or nurses coming to him to heal his leg and save it. Several  days ago, I tried to get what doctor recommended, and he refused to let me put it on his legs or do it himself. After I described the process he might have to go through. He came and let me medicate his legs with oil. I suppose I anointed them. 

It works when I tell him how bad things can get. Diabetes will see him with amputated leg or legs. He thinks getting the Dexcom G7 is all he needs and a few doses of insulin. His monitor alerts him to levels as high as 378 and then he goes to eat more bread! A good friend lost both legs because she lived like she did not have diabetes. I just had another talk, not fussing, just explaining. He swallowed hard. 

We have rain again. Hopefully, it won't rain on Halloween. 

I have heard nothing from the new electrician, so no telling what is happening. After bombarding from old electrician and new ones to get our business, it is quiet and peaceful. Plus, all the calls have ceased.

We have plans all week and so does the rain. ugh

Is it rainy or stormy at your house?
