So, all was good.

Its the smile, it has always been
the smile. 
Its 4:45 in the morning, I've done my morning meditational reading and prayer time, and now it is the time for me to open up my heart had tell you about yesterday. This blog, this journal, this diary, is something of a way for me to empty out yesterday and make room for what is waiting for me today. Like eating, if there isn't a way to make room for more food, if I eat and just continually eat, I get stuffed and uncomfortable, and eventually, ruin my health by getting fat. That is something that I shouldn't do, for I have a purpose in my life and that is another life. 

Sweetie doesn't know just how much she depends on me, and how much she puts a purpose in my life. I was thinking that life is like a job, or the military, or even a sports team. Anyone can join, if your healthy enough and can qualify for that activity, but to really get the benefits out of what you joined up to do, you have to work hard to become a sergeant, chief, officer, starter, or a manager, to get promoted. As for me, what is my promotion? My job will be finished when I don't have to care of Sweetie anymore, when I'll be footloose and fancy-free. From what I know, that may not be as enjoyable as it seems. As for now, I must be satisfied doing what I'm doing. Taking it one day at a time. 

We had a real good day and it was enjoyable. Up, breakfast, shower, and shopping. Had to buy a new coffee pot, the old one's switch wasn't working and would soon fail. So, we replaced it. 

Something of a revelations about eating. She usually eats almost anything I put in front of her, so she is eating well. Last night we had pasta with spaghettis sauce. I should of waited to let it cool down before I gave it to her, and she tried, and gave up on it. No matter how many times I tried to get her to eat, she just refused and we know what that can lead to if I push too hard. So, I got her a applesauce cup, she likes that. I also know that she had a good breakfast and lunch and wasn't starving so why worry if she doesn't eat. So, all was good.

Good? Yet, my Driver is here, He is always Good. The stay at my Oasis was well worth the side trip, I wonder what He has up His sleeve today. I do know, whatever it is, I'll get something I need out of it. So, off we go, me in the passenger's seat, Driver behind the wheel, and we motor down the Road to Dementia Town, Keeping our Shiny Side Up. I hope you get what you need as you drive the Road to Dementia Town, Keeping Your Shiny Side Up too. Take care, Love Ya, and God Bless.

A fitting farewell.

When we were young. I've been rummaging around and found this picture of Sweetie and me. We had been married for about a year when this...
