What's in a day

Let's start with how Joes' day goes. He gets up and goes in and turns on the computer. We moved it upstairs after our son moved out. Then he goes down and feeds and waters the bird. , takes his meds. That may or may not tire him out so he will sit and most likely fall asleep sitting on the couch. On Fridays that is towel day. He gathers all the towels in the house and washes, dries and puts them away. This could take anywhere from an hour and a half to all day because he has forgotten that he started them, and most likely will sleep again. He has his tacquitos several times in a day or not depending on wheter or not he remembers if he is hungry. We all ask him if he wants anything. Then there are the times that he is staring off into space and you ask if anything is wrong and he shrugs and says Ehh. Yesterday I asked him and he said that he was tired and did not care anymore. He wants to go home. It is getting harder for him to get his thoughts across and out to us. We play alot more charades. It is a good thing I know how his brain works or we would never have a conversation.
I think that is enough for now and will do more later.
Take care
