Sometimes fustrations get in the way.

In front of the USS Midway

Daycare is beginning to bug me. Had another conversation with the directer of the facility. She wants to know if I can drop Sweetie off later in the morning. You see, she is beginning to be a handful between the time I drop her off and the late comers arrive. 

With the late comers coming in, Sweetie wants to get out the door and won't settle down until the all of the commotion stops. She has already given me a pamphlet on a different facility that provides more supervision for their clients. Its on the other side of town, and they provide transportation, and there is a higher cost for Sweetie to go there. 

Where she is, they told me that she would become accustom to being there and will learn to enjoy being there. That hasn't been the case. She was getting to the point of when I would turn in to park, she would plea and cry about being there. She is so attached to me, the idea of being away from me is horrifying to her. 

We are trying a prescription for anti-anxious with her, something that the daycare directer suggested. This was the second day with Sweetie being on the medication, and she was ready to tell me that it isn't working. I'm willing to work with her, but... If there was another facility close by, I'd pull her out of there and move her. I've thought of in-home help but the cost is 3 to 4Xs as much as what I'm paying now. This is one of those things that I'll just leave with my Driver.

Outside of that, we had a great day. Sweetie is loving her new shoes and so am I. She can go with or without socks. While it is still cold outside, I'll continue to have her wear socks, when it warms up, sockless. 

We're working into a routine of her body clock. If I can get her to the bathroom around 2pm, I know we can get nature calls done without too much difficulties. Then we can go out and do some walking, shopping or whatever. 

Today we're going over to the grandson's and bring pizza. It will be a Valentine's Day for her. She doesn't know that it is Valentine's Day tomorrow, she's lucky to know what day of the week it is. 

Found some Easter Eggs yesterday. One of the eggs was and will be potty timing. Anytime we can minimize a body function, that is a relief big time. She ate all her dinner and her sundowners did not kick in. We worked on the puzzle, and had times of joy during the day. 

The sky is changing colors and that means the day is coming. Today is my day of phone Bible study with a friend in Texas, and then off to son's house. What my Driver is planning is always a surprise, so I need to get on with it. The motor is running and He is waiting for me. Into the passenger's side, buckle up, and down the road we go. Heading to Dementia Town keeping my Shinny Side Up. Don't let the sun get in your eyes as you join us, keeping your Shinny Side Up. God Bless.
