Walks, chores, and Mickey's Clubhouse.

Where else, the Huntington Beach Pier.

Did I step in it, you be the judge. Little bit off subject, yet, it isn't. As we are all experiencing the lock down, meetings with groups of people are frown upon. That includes my Alzheimer's support group. I just asked our group leader about setting up a Zoom meeting. And then volunteered to set it up. Talk about getting out of my comfort zone. I think a Zoom meeting is better than nothing. I know I sure could use one about now. 

Could Yesterday not have been a more perfect day? It was one of those days that say, you can do it, it's not that hard. Only had one sight moment that sundowners got ahead of me, and the lady was kind and helpful. 

We did walks, watched Mickey's Clubhouse, cleaned the aquarium, sat in the back yard watching birds come to our feeders and just enjoyed the day. By keeping one eye on Sweetie and the other on the clock, I was able to regulate her intake of CBD and water. Those two things help keep sundowners either away or limit its appearing. 

One of the things I enjoy the most is walking with her. Saying silly rhymes to her, having her look at me and smile, holding her hand or putting my arms around her when a dog will come and bark at us as we walk by. Those all to few moments when we seem to connect, that the love in her heart shines through. Those are the Easter Eggs that I cherish the most. Sometimes I'm glad that she is who and where she is, for I wouldn't know what to do if she was healthy. But, then again, it would be something that is unanswerable, for she isn't and I am, and this is now my life's mission. To care for Sweetie. 

My Driver told me once, that life without a purpose isn't worth living. That old saying is so true today. "Aim at nothing, and you'll hit it every time." With my Driver's help and advice, we'll make it to our destination, not Dementia Town, we'll find the joy of loving care. Speaking of my Driver, its time to join Him, it looks like it will be a great day on the road. He's got a cooler of refreshments, and so we're off. Got my cool sunglasses on, relaxing in the passenger's seat, watching the sun come up, as we head off down the Road to Dementia Town, keeping our Shiny Side Up. May you have a good day, as you navigate your day trip driving down to Dementia Town, keeping your Shiny Side Up. Love Ya, and God Bless.
