Paperwork delayed!

 Trying to feel less stressed about Rob not telling me about the paperwork he received that had to be submitted by Aug 29th, the doctor being away till Sept 6th when I finally found out about the paperwork and got it filled out - to having his insurance cancelling his short-term disability due to lack of paperwork, and his job expecting him back on Aug 29th and wondering why he didn't show up.

About his driver's license being suspended which means he cannot work, since he drives for a living.

He forgot he had an appointment with his family doctor, never mentioned it to me, and so he missed it.

It's all straightened out finally, short-term disability has been renewed - and even more paperwork I need to fill out and submit - so not feeling less stressed yet.

Oh, and he finally told his family about his dementia diagnosis and prostate cancer diagnosis, and now his family wants me to drive him 3 hours away so they can see him. His dad is fighting colon cancer and mom is recovering from several strokes, so expecting them to drive here is unfair.

But the idea of being in the car with his backseat driving, and criticism, and my little dog who barks the whole time... I might end up putting them both out to the side of the road!!

Conversations with Rob

 Rob:  Where's the relish?? Did you forget to buy some? Me: Yes, I bought a bottle, is it not in the fridge? Rob: No, I looked and it's not! Me: Not in the pantry? Rob: No, it's not there! Me: Well, I am sure I bought one. Soon the whole family is hunting everywhere for the relish. So strange, where could it have gone?? Well, I found the relish. It was on the counter, right next to his hotdogs - where HE put it, right before sending us all hunting for the relish!

All About Rob

  You asked me to let you know what you need to watch for with Rob. I really do not like to talk about him, when he is listening. He gets upset, and then I have to deal with his anger. I prefer to keep him happy as much as possible, That can be a full-time job in itself. Since he will be in a familiar place, he will probably be just fine. Changes in his routine can get him agitated, but most of the time he is pretty good. Most of the time he is quite jolly, can be the "life of the party", which is not who he used to be! LOL If he does get agitated, he might simply refuse to talk to anyone. I have learned to ignore him when he gets like that, and he usually gets over it. Other times, he has suddenly stormed out of the house and taken off. Fortunately I have a Life360 app on my phone, that I can track him, and know where he is. I usually just let him come home when he is ready. Sometimes, if he gets frustrated about being unable to figure out how to do something he used to be a...

More June Updates

We had a ton of logs and kindling piled up over the years that Rob had cut up, from fallen branches and dead trees. I decided to offer it for free on a FB Free Stuff site and told Rob that my son and I had moved the logs and kindling out to the driveaway to make it easier for people to pick up. It took 4 people with cars, and another with a pickup truck to haul it all away! Rob was convinced someone was going to walk up our driveway with a match and set it all on fire.
