Harlan does not know how to use the call button in his room so he calls me when he has a problem and either I help him fix it over the phone or I call the desk and they go down to help him. Today he called and I did not understand what his problem was and I was about to leave to go in to see him so I told him I'd take care of it when I got in. When I got in we talked to Paula and everything was okay but she said that they have tried to get him to use the call button, he just does not understand how to use it and have given up on teaching him. I'm glad he can call me because I do call the desk and they have helped him.
Paula asked me if I wanted them to get his hair cut as it really needed cutting and he wants it left longer then a "buzz job" but he can't keep it combed and he naps so much it always looks messy, today I gave him a hair cut, it needs no combing and will be easy to shampoo. He also decided he wanted a shave and I promised him I'd shave him when we got back from bingo.
Today was bingo and he played well but when we got back to his room he said he'd rather go to McD for coffee then have me shave him, I suggested he shave in the morning, hope he does for church. I try not to mention tomorrow is church as he gets stressed over getting ready for church up to the point of not sleeping at night.
After coffee at McD I went home and mixed up a batch of chocolate chip cookies, they are so good. Until tomorrow Good Night.....Fran
