Weekend with Grandpa & J-Night

    On Saturday, Grandpa Potter finally got to come home. He started to perk up when he heard he'd be released, he didn't much enjoy the hospital. He looked a lot better on Saturday then when I saw him on Friday. Saturday I helped pick-up a new recliner. It's nice, and Grandpa says it's comfortable. On Sunday, he seemed to be doing even better. He's still pretty tired/weak. Emily is staying a few more days there to help out, and we've setup a bed downstairs, since he doesn't need to be messing with stairs yet. The left side of his face is still a little paralyzed, which is affecting his speech and eating slightly. I'll see him again on Friday, when I head back to Tulsa for the weekend. I didn't mention it before, but he's also been diagnosed with Parkinson's Disease. He's getting medication for that now.

J-Night

    I went to J-Night on Sunday evening with my roommate and Doug. It was pretty cool. J-Night is a program the Japanse Student Association puts on. Had a nice dinner before a show. I also go some caligraphy done for "archery" and "bo staff". The dances, drums, and performances were very interesting, glad I got the chance to go. They had a little trouble figuring out what word bo staff actually was, hopefully they got it right? The paper the caligraphy is on is about 9 1/2 x 13, it's actually a little tiny bit past 13. I'll have to hunt for some frames for them.

    

    That's all for now, I think I'm going to take a nap, need to catch up on some sleep.

    TUMEO.
