CAREGIVING: This week I bought a caregiver cam. That’s what I am calling it, anyway. Everybody is spying on everybody. A musician friend gave me an Amazon gift card and in addition to some pajama bottoms for Kathy and some Oral-B toothbrush heads, I ordered an inexpensive internet camera. It is like a web cam except that it works with your network. I was worried that it would be too complicated for me to set up but it was pretty easy. My goal is to be able to check Kathy when I am working upstairs on music or down in the basement. I can view the camera and adjust it with my phone too. I does use infrared to see in the dark. Here is a selfie of me in the dark.
With luck I may be able to watch when I am out of the house but that is what having health aides is about. This will simply allow me to be in two nearby places at the same time. This last photo is a composite of three overlapped shots of us. It is a pretty typical afternoon scene, here. Kathy napping. Marty napping. Me pecking away.
