Well Carl slept well and everyone was trying to feed him high protein this morning so that was good. My knee is still killing me. Had a long telephone conversation with my ex-wife, our kids, Carl, she likes him a lot. Kathy left for the airport this morning could only take off for the couple days. the sisters and parents are still here. they have been talking a lot and enjoying being together. I'll post a pic if I can figure out how to do it. 

I have help for 4 days here so am taking advantage of that. Ill go to work Tuesday and Wed then Dr stuff all day Thursday and the family fly home. They are en DC  or S. Cal. so long way off. Will have to get anal about all this then but now enjoying the help. 

Cat was left in last night, she hid under the bed I think. I had an ice bag on my knee when I fell asleep. this morning it was empty and had claw holes all over. Wet carpet. Worried about her playing with Carl's catheter bag, can't really hurt him but the thought of stale pee all over the carpet is not exciting. Her playing with the medical supplies is not cool either. Moving the food bowl outside now. weather is good and she likes being out in warm weather anyway so a wish come true. Puma is a good cat but not a good situation for her right now. Kula the dog is loving it. He has had more people walking him then ever. He does live outside but visits in and is just a happy camper. we keep him form the living room/bedroom but actually he doesn't want Carl now anyway he has all these others.
