Dysregulated
Everyone has been dysregulated since the coffee and Final Fantasy earlier this week. I don’t think it’s going to kill us but everyone has been yelling bloody murder at me so in this case I may be wrong. I am starting to catastrophize like the rest of the family. We need each other and if…

Dissociation
If you read yesterday’s posts you may guess that Stephanie was none too happy with me about getting laser focused on Final Fantasy. She doesn’t for obvious reasons like being considered a “distraction.” The language that she used was that I dissociate. Apparently that is a bigger problem than I realized and far more general…

Keep the Cat in the House
Ben doesn’t like it when the cats are outside. It’s a cold rainy day to at least today I am inclined to agree with him. The problem is that he doesn’t have a good idea of whether Ether is in or out. He opens the door to check and Ether runs out. Then the cat…

Lazy Weekends
Stephanie has been getting up in the morning so I don’t have to do so. Oddly she doesn’t bill on the weekends so Saturday and Sunday are technically her days off. But my days off are Monday and Tuesday, and I still work. Caregiving is on call 24/7. I am still ending up being lazy…

The Last Drop of Water
About a year ago Ben and I had a fight because he put half a bottle of water into his water bottle because that was all that was left in the gallon jug. He tried to pour the half bottle down the drain and I tried to stop him. So he doesn’t like it when…

Evening Hymns
I had already listened to my daily hymns when Ben asked for pills and soda simultaneously. As I’ve said here before he cannot have both at the same time. Caffeine and Benadryl tend to cancel each other out in his body. So I made him use expressive language to choose between the two. He wanted…

Turds
Ben usually gets a bath when he wants one. He sat on the toilet before he got in his bath tonight. A storm rolled in and Stephanie suggested that he sounded distressed because of it even though he was in the bath. I checked and he was sitting sideways in the tub with his legs…
