Yes Helen,
I myself usually prefer a good stiff bourbon and coke at night while I am here ... however I've been getting home to late at night and to tired to even mix a drink.

Phewwwwwwww, this is hard work !
But seeing her better cared for because of all my perserverence and assertiveness in assuring she is getting what she needs keeps us both happy.

Instead of the drink tonight, I bought myself some special bath salts and oils for my long hot tub tonight ...

Warm thoughts, sweet dreams.
Betty
