Worst Part of the Day - Oh it twas shower day for my stinky patient on the couch. And it was hard (for me) and hard (for him). He got woozy in the shower and it freaked me out. I did not enjoy seeing STAPLES holding puckered skin together - ugh. I did not enjoy feeling like he was going to fall when we went UP the stairs and DOWN the stairs. And finally we got him back to the couch and there he laid. As I walked to the kitchen and put my head down in a dramatic and emotional fashion. And I sat there until my patient called for something (which was about two minutes. Heh heh. Actually he really hasn't been that bad.)
Best Part of the Day - Do you think Steinbeck fashioned Lenny from "Of Mice and Men" after a 16 month old? This child! One minute he is kissing you with exaggerated noises and motions and the next he is pulling the sh#t out of your hair. He then stands there with his head cocked, thumb in mouth and blue eyes wide in adorable innocence. Then he is grabbing whatever is toward the edge of the counter. Okay - maybe it's not Lenny he's aping. Maybe it's some sort of crazy bipolar type with a case of the "grabby hands". Also - SB is now "drawing" letters. It's so odd - he can't make all the right sounds to speak but he is trying to write his letters. (And I have to say that his 'D' is pretty good.)
