September 12- Saturday

I picked up Dad around 9:15 am for breakfast at McDonald's. He didn't need any groceries. He wanted a hair cut at his favorite barber shop which he was able to direct me. (it's located in the Super Target parking lot) off of Parrish Lane. After the hair cut we picked up his dry cleaning at Bountiful Family Cleaners on 500 West and around 300 South. I needed to pick up a few items at Costco, so he and I went together. (ironically, we ran into Gary!) He loves pushing the grocery cart around. After, we walked around the parking lot for about 10 minutes looking for my car, since I forgot where I parked!! My dementia was in rare form today!? I was a little rushed for time since I had to be to Tara's in Riverton by 1pm, so I didn't get a chance to wash the dishes or anything. I put a few photos around I found in his closet that I framed. I talked to him about Meals on Wheels. He said he would be fine with it if he didn't have to pay. He was in an extremely happy mood today. He was pretty tired when we arrived home. I asked him about the prescription Dr. Lym gave him for constipation and said he would get it later, so Todd or Sheryl, maybe on Monday. Apparently, it's something he can buy over the counter. The doctor wrote it up as a prescription so perhaps his insurance would cover it for him, but I think he would prefer buying it over the counter.
