So you wont believe this, but I get paid to sit. Yes...its true! I am so much of a in-the-way person people actually pay me to stay out of the way. Well, not exactly. But That is a more fun way to think of it. Really what I do is take care of an elderly gentlemen who is 86. But because I phrase it in such a humorous way some people don't actually think I 'work'. But that is Soo not true. I worked really hard. Especially yesterday! This is me, and what I did all day.....While keeping an eye on him.
And this is what I was doing by the end of the day.
Now, you might think that there is not problem here, but there was! I had to go. But it was the evening and he had had 2 Therapist and a nurse come and do exercises with him. So he was tired and confused. So here is the deal. If he gets up I have to walk behind him so if he falls he not only gets hurt but I get crushed too. And when he is confused he likes to walk around his house 'looking' for stuff. (yesterday is just so happened to be a box with stuff in it he needed to make copies of.) [Don't ask.] And after he found it he was going to be ready to go. Well, I eventually talked him into waiting for his daughter to get him so she could take him. Then we sat down and watched Tv. Every time I got up he would start to get up thinking it was 'time to go...' So I had to sit there. And sit. And sit. Finally, after like an hour of sitting, he fell asleep. So you see, I do work!
