Some updates – Jordyn sees Santa

Matt noticed yesterday that I had missed taking my antidepressants Saturday and Sunday. This is probably what contributed my total tailspin on Sunday. I'm still here.
My wife took Jordyn to see Santa. I am sure that she told Santa that she was a good girl. I think her motto is "there's a sucker born every minute". She is so cute sometimes that I'm sure she had Santa fooled. Last night my wife went out with their sisters. How she was gone Jordyn a bulb off of the tree, chewed it up and ate part of it, found a kleenex and ate it and found the stuffed toy Grumpy Cat, carried it around, flipped in the air, chewed on it but she did not tear it apart. She barked a bunch while my wife was gone because she thinks if she barks my wife will come back sooner. Of course she totally ignores me especially now that my voice is faint and weak. I don't think she ate much of the Christmas ornament. She is used to eating tissues so that is a big deal and she did not destroy the calling cat. I'm getting used to her barking and just ignore. She did find a eating utensil and carried it around a little while but that's no big deal. She is so happy when my wife gets home. She is definitely my wife's dog.
When we had the queen bed in here my wife used to have her put her paws on my chest and her head down on my chest. This is giving Poppa a night nighthug. Then she would get a biscuit which she cared about more than Poppa. With the hospital bed and the computer table over me she cannot get up to my head area. Sunday night the table was not up yet so she could climb up and she climbed up to my head. A lot of times she plopped down with her tail against the top of my head. Sunday night she plopped down so that she was sitting on my head. It was very funny. This is why we call her the Galloot. She stomps where she wants and plops down where she wants. She is not a dainty little thing. I've been telling her if I can I'm going to bite her so she knows that I am the A-dog. I did not do it because I was afraid of what I might bite. I guess she knows that she is the top dog.
It's time to sign off for now. Take care dear reader. We have two nursing technicians who get me up in the morning now so Janette does not have to come home. I'm not sure how well it is going because they ask me lots of questions. I don't do well with decisions anymore. I'm used to my wife knowing what I need taken care. Hopefully we get past learning curve soon. Decisions are bad enough but before my coffee, crazy. I did get a shave this morning. No blood so it went good. We thought we would see more of the nurse but so far not much. I hope that changes soon because only she can redress my wounds.
