February visits!

Just a brief update--Todd, Sheryl, Den and myself, as couples are taking turns caring for dad on a weekly basis. This is our week. The second week of February, Dad was generally in happy spirits when Den or I were with him. He was asking about his money again. We did the usual visits complete with trips to the grocery store, hair appointments and out to lunch etc. I'm concerned about his hygiene and his eating habits. Also, his back was bothering him.
It's the beginning of the fourth week of February, and Dad was very happy today. We spent half the day together doing his errands and mine. As long as I am holding his hand or he is pushing the shopping cart he is on sure footings. He said his TV is going out and he wants the one that was in his bedroom, which we took over there once and it didn't fit on his dresser, so we took to DI. Dennis plans on buying him a new TV when the old one goes out. I took his laundry home to do, but there were no underwear in the pile of shirts and jeans. He is a little discouraged that he doesn't receive much mail in his mailbox. So, maybe we could drop him a line now and then. His back is feeling better today. He said he thought he remembered the girl in the photo with him. He said, I think it's a girl in my ward because she looks so familiar!
