Today was a quiet day of packing and reflecting. I’m going to Charlottesville tomorrow and plan to stay until something happens. I didn’t take any photos today.
I walked a total of 2.51 miles today. And I finished the Veterans Day challenge by doing a workout for at least 11 minutes.
We wrote an article about what Virginia wines to have with Thanksgiving dinner. Here are some we recommended.
Not much of an update on my father. He’s about the same. The hospice nurse checked in on him today.
I walked a total of 1.80 miles today.
Using the exercise app I walked 1.72 miles today. I didn’t take any photos.
My brother reports my father didn’t eat anything at all today. He’s slipping away I fear.
I took my walk later in the afternoon today. It has been getting dark earlier and earlier everyday of course. My walk ended when it was dark. I decided to sit and rest at the bench and took a picture while sitting.
My father continues his decline. My brother reported that he didn’t eat any food today but did take water and some coffee. He is slowly unaware of what’s going on around him or who people are. He does still have his eyes open and reacts without words. I’m not sure how much longer he has. I have plans to return to Charlottesville on Monday but am wondering if I should go earlier. I’ll think about it.
Using the exercise app I walked 1.84 miles today.
I stayed up late last night watching the election results. It was slow to happen but there was a blue wave in the House. The dems gained 37 seats in the house. Yay! But in the senate the dems actually lost a few seats. There are some still yet to be determined so the final number may take a few days. The dems also picked up lots of governorships across the country. That’s a good thing too!
Here’s what the leaves look like right outside our kitchen window. I think they are beautiful.
My father is on the decline. He is eating very little but is still drinking water and coffee. He still loves his coffee!
Using the exercise app I walked 2.26 miles outside. It’s getting cool so I’m enjoying getting outside again.
