Haven't been doing too much walking these cold days and somehow i'm blaming that on our sleepless nights, or i should say my sleepless nights....Mac has been tossing and tuning, these nights, and also talking in his sleep...which is a kind of problem but wasn't too bad until a couple of nights and especially last night where he woke up and didn't know where he was, and was searching all over the place saying, i have to press these buttons...i tried to speak softly as i know when someone is sleep walking one is not supposed to be rough or loud...didn't matter....as he continued to walk around the room, and if i said anything, he would yell - 'shut up' yikes...i was trying to calm him and at the same time wondering...should i call the night nurse ...what would she do...she may be rough..who knows.. So these days I'm looking like a racoon with a black mask over my eyes - sleep ...wish i could...even in the days, he seems to need me to be wide awake, i try to lie down and he says...'are you sleeping ...does the cat need to be fed...the radio needs to be turned off...i guess he feels at loose ends if I'm not on-target. Anyway, i'm trying to remember what i said that calmed him down last night...as i don't want to have any more problems...or i want to have more sleep....that's the main thing ...
We've been out and about to different places which may be disconcerting for him, and he may feel anxiety which goes into his sleep pattern, but he doesn't want to stay home with anyone, insists on coming with me and then gets a bit jumpy and wanting to return home...oh well onward and upward..
he is still fine in the day and i want to keep the two of us together as long as possible, so will decide to get someone for him next time i have too many places to go in a day..that could be the problem also...who knows...must do that.
In the meantime there is always chocolate....so good afternoon....
