I had just stepped out of the shower and phone rang this morning. Seems Cowboy and a fellow named Donald had an "altercation". The head nurse said Cowboy and Donald had landed some punches and kicks to each other but neither was hurt. They have a protocol where this means for the next 72 hours each of them will be checked on every 15 minutes. OK, I understand that. I actually feel kind of bad that they have that extra task to add to their rather crowded list of things to do every day.
When I get to the home, after I chatted with Cowboy for a bit, I ask him about the incident. He said the fellow tried to crawl into bed with him and he told him no and asked him to leave. Donald didn't. So Cowboy kicked him out of the bed. I am sure I shouldn't feel this way but I found the whole thing kind of funny. Nobody messes with "Cowboy". I am so glad no one was hurt.
Cowboy told me if he tried it again he was going to "kick his ass". One more thing to keep me awake at night. Actually I suspect it is a non event. I know Donald and he is always wandering around and walking into other people's rooms and is just completely out of it.
We had a nice visit today and Cowboy went outside for a while. It is unseasonably warm, but that is not all bad. Awfully windy though. They had fried chicken, mashed potatoes, corn on the cob, a roll and a brownie for lunch plus he had water, tea and milk. Mercy, it is a lot of food. I need to ask if Cowboy is gaining weight.
I came home after lunch and felt rather bad so laid down for a nap and then found I was having stomach cramps. Oh Lord, I hope I am not taking something !
Better tonight so probably nothing.
