07:45 AM: I’m up, and it looks like I beat Mom.  She’s still sleeping.  So I’m off to a shower.  Sister Jojo will be coming shortly, and she’ll help Mom do whatever while I’m getting clean.   

08:30 AM: Jojo got Mom up and about.  She’s now sitting in her easy chair.  I dispensed morning meds.

08:45 AM: Sister Jojo and I are headed   shopping.  Back later.

01:00 PM: We’re back home, and I’ve put away all groceries and other supplies.  We helped Mom into her wheelchair so she could buzz around the house with us as we took care of various domestic tasks. 

05:00 PM: I assembled Mom’s new dining set throughout the afternoon. Assembly went well, although I have four extra wood screws left over.  Hmmmm, did I not put them where I was supposed to, or did they just give me extras?  I think, they gave me extras.  :-)   I’ll look into it a bit more later to be sure. 

05:30 PM: Vacuumed the kitchen, to pick up those little Styrofoam bits that were shed from the dining set packing materials.   A few of the attachments on her vacuum cleaner were hard installing and removing.  So I sanded off the rough spots on the mating metals and sprayed a little white lithium grease on the joints.  That fixed it.  Now, the pieces snap on and off quite easily. 

05:45 PM: Replaced the bulb socket in Mom’s lamp in the sitting room.  The light would cut out often with the old one, and this new one seems to have eliminated the trouble. 

06:00 PM: Mom cooked some sloppy Joes for supper. 

07:00 PM: Dispensed Mom’s evening meds and got her back into her easy chair. 

07:30 PM: Sister Jojo just called to say that they need help relocating their Internet router.  They require some RG-6 cables with F fittings, and a splitter.  I have all that stuff.  So she’s coming to take me to her house to change the cabling.  Back later.

08:15 PM: We got her telephone working again.  Now we’re heading back home, but taking the long way, to look at peoples’ Christmas lights. 

08:45 PM: We’re back home again. 

09:10 PM: I watched the rest of   Frosty The Snow Man   with Mom and part of   Frosty Returns

09:20 PM: Now, I’m on the phone with   [Emmy],   watching the rest of    Frosty Returns

12:00 AM: Worked the   DJ Gig: 2010-12-31   project; just processed more 2010 music.

12:15 AM: Helped Mom to bed and dispensed her night time meds.  Now, I’m headed there as well.  More later, and take care.
