(written and leaving unedited and unfinished as it was when i was interrupted when writing it in Seattle)
Well, no, time is going the same speed but my father seems to be stuck in a 10-25% real time speed loop.
It is a bit of a struggle, he can still manage to get some stuff done, but everything he can do he has to do really really really slowly.
Good to be here, yes, good to hang out with him, I think so. Sitting and not doing much is fine. I've cleaned the kitchen here, taken out the compost, sorted the recycling, not much else to do. The washer/dryer are too intimidating to tackle, although perhaps not really. Things have a place and I don't know where the stuff in the drier goes or what settings on the dryer the stuff in the wash uses.
We've got some sun that's out now, pretty decent outside, but we're inside, with windows.
He's been working on lunch for 90+ minutes, that's just the eating of it. The making took another 45.
Things are slow. He's there mentally most of the time. He is still super stubborn, and determined and seems to have an exaggerated estimation of what he can manage but could be the other way around and worse. My brother and his wife are saints and it is not easy for them,
