D D Only I

can fix what's broken in my life ( that is if there is any "patch" big enough  for the job.)
   I didn't get that first sentence down when hubby woke. First words out of him were " Turn the fucking heat on in here. I'm frozen."      It's fucking 80 in here. I shit you not! There he is lying in bed without pj bottoms. 
He use to tell my poor dad when he lived with us, "put some more clothes on" as he sat at our table trying to drink his coffee. sighhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh Different tune he is singing now and we didn't keep the house at eight degrees for dad.  Now he has begun the song and dance about the blankets all being on my side.  That's where he throws them when he get up to use his pot and that's where he is now. No amount of reasoning, explaining, satisfied him. " Keep it up and see how fast twin mattress get in our bedroom", I retorted. STILL he wouldn't end it. "What good would those do? I've had my own covers before. I've tuned him OUT. I shit you not ! Later he'll say, "I was only joking with you."  Yeah right!

NOTHING....ABSOLUTELY NOTHING got done last night. Contractor changed his plans. Son Randy came all the way back from his place in NH ( maybe 30 miles ) and when I asked if he was at least going to hook my new PC up, he gave me the old, "I'll do it tomorrow when my mind is fresher." HUH??? 
He no sooner leaves and Tracie comes.   Hubby and I had shared a container of leftover spaghetti . His I nuked. Mine I ate cold. I like cold spaghetti and pizza.  Later on she asked if she could get us something else to eat as she was going to run for chicken parm and we got a small sausage and pepper pizza to share.
She sat in his wheelchair to watch Dancing With The Stars with us and I laid on my bed and kept dozing off.
The recliner is GONE :0)   She had the good sense to leave before it was over so that I could sleeeeeeeeeeep.  THIS TIME!  sighhhhhhhhhhhhh   Her surgery to remove that ? is Dec. 4th   She asked an old friend of her moms to take her to Lahey Hospital in Peabody that day. I'm glad that Lucy can do that for her. Today is the inspection of her apartment by Legal Aide that she asked to intervene on her behalf to her apartment manager. The SECOND INSPECTION. sighhhhhhhhhhhhh    They thought she could do more to make her place less cluttered. 

Jill's B/P was 163/102 this morning. Doctor called her last night after seven and upped two of her meds.
She usually takes them at seven, but popped them in her mouth at 6:30 after Butch took her B/P.  Then he left for his 24 hour shift at the fire station. :0)  She was thanking the Lord when I inquired where he was off to. He's trying to make himself indispensible to her. Ain't going to happen!
SOB Speak of the devil. He's back . Went to his place to shower and change into a uniform.  Making himself instant coffee now.   It's 7:30, His shift starts at eight.
When the dogs began their yipping, I thought it was Randy coming through the door.  Soon....sighhhhhhhhhhhhh
 Nurse Stephanie will be here at nine or quarter of. Kathy to bathe hubby at nine thirty. 
Contractor ?????????????????????????????????????
I should shower and dress before then. "SHOULD" is the key word here.
I'll entertain the thought.     I shit you not!  Later......................

It's nine a.m. I'm showered and dressed.  Randy and a worker arrived and I've been yelling " shut the door " repeatedly and my son gets pissed off. He's trying to carry tools and supplies in.  While I understand...hubby will not when he notices the temp change in the house. sighhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
Lo and behold....  the worker that was supposedly fired is here working along side of my son. If I question it..,...best not to.

Now it's nearing the end of my day. It's quarter past five. Randy is still working alongside John the contractor's helper.That must mean they don't hate each other today. ;0)   They tore the door out to the outside in Jill's room and are installing the window as I type.  He never did install my new PC.  Asked me if it could wait another day and I told him yes. Wish I knew what the hurry was to purchase it the other day. sighhhhhhhhh
   Jill's B/P was 130/82 this morning an hour after she took her increased meds. :0).
Tomorrow hubby sees his primary and a Dr,Hays from the paliative care part of Hospice should have talked to him today and I truly hope they came to an agreement.  We shall see.
Hair dresser comes to cut our hair at 4:30 also. 
One of our neighbors was given less than five days to live.  Guess things could be worst for me. It's our long time neighbor Glenn's live-in girlfriend Terri's mother. Her dad has prostrate cancer. :0( Genn's step father passed away down the Cape of cancer a week or so ago. 
Our baby shower is Sunday.  Sad times and happy times. 
Being that Jill is home, I think I will go off with Tracie for awhile.  .;0) I'm getting excited at the thought.
Hubby suggested that I do. Even better. I shit you not!
Hope the world is treating all of you good. 

That's All Folks!
