Hello From Rockville

Today I had an early start on the day as I had an appointment in Sartell at 8 AM. I didn't go into to see Harlan until the afternoon.

When I went into see him he wasn't in his room (it was 2 PM) and a few minuets later he showed up, he told me he had just eaten his dinner. I try and call him at his meal time to remind him to go eat and I found out today that he tells me is going but he doesn't. His excuse - after he hangs up he doesn't remember what I had told him, I scolded him and told him I wasn't going to call him any more to remind him to eat. He told me if I wasn't going to call him he'd call me all night long every five minuets and he laughed and so did I. At 5:30 I called him to remind him to eat and about 6 he called me to let me know he had eaten his supper and he wasn't going to eat any more today. He really doesn't understand the concept of breakfast, dinner and supper, three meals a day. He had breakfast when we went to Perkins for our afternoon treat, egg, sausage and breakfast potatoes. He doesn't want me to be upset with him so we do a lot of hugs and I reassure him I love him and I really can't get too mad at him I just want him to eat his meals.

Today was an other good day.....Fran
