Sick wife 5

Tuesday I made Evelyn eat half a banana and drink some Gatorade before I went to work. Kara had a project of cleaning and painting some of the filters in the lobby of the restaurant. She sent me to Lowes to get some cans of spray paint and a ceiling fan brush. I was pleased to find a brush so I bought one for us as well. I cleaned the fans but got out of doing the cleaning of the filters. I did my regular work except the contracted window washer comes each Tuesday so I didn’t have that to do. I came home after eating an order of chicken taquitos and picking up some popsicles for Evelyn. I made her eat one popsicle and I heated some more rice and topped it with brown sugar. She liked it better and it should provide more energy. I also forced more Gatorade down her. We both showered because we both wanted me to be here when she took hers. She was much stronger than in the one Sunday. Her voice was also stronger. We made sure she took all her medicine. I just kept pumping things into her. During the morning the Nurse Practioner had called wanting her to come in a day early. She will have blood work tomorrow and another appointment afterward. I hope she has raised her electrolytes. We had an association meeting tonight and tried to deal with our drainage problems. We don’t personally have the problem but others in Cypress Meadows have. Afterward some of the neighbors came to see how Evelyn was. Jim Rogers and I drank a beer while Kathy, Anna and Diane talked with Evelyn in bed. We called the Beelis to wish Noah a happy birthday. We have been so involved with this disease that we haven’t got a card or any new bills to send to him. We watched a bit of the All Star Baseball game and went to sleep.
