Some weird memory recovery.

Heading Back, Yea!

It just seemed so right yesterday, after I made up my mind to book a room for us. On the Pacific Coast Highway, just across from the beach, and a short walk from the pier. I'm so excited to be going. I told Sweetie what we are going to do, and she seemed to understand, time will tell. Haven't told the kids, on leaving or arriving, what we're up to. 

I think I'm going to keep Sweetie in her all day pads while we are there. Less time to miss with her toiletings, and more time just being there. This is going to be a bear necessity trip. Change of underwear, toothbrush, and her "stuff" to keep Mr. Sundowners away. I'm hoping that she will be at ease while we are there. 

With the pandemic, I'm not sure how my daughters will react to us coming. Both are afraid of catching the virus, and may not want to see us until it has all passed away. 

I'm going to get out an old lap top and see if I can get it to co-operate so I can post while I'm away. If not, I'll update you when we get home. 

Yesterday, I thought I was going to have some hydration problems. When Sweetie came downstairs, the first thing I do is to take her and change her pullups. She was dry as a bone in the desert. Knowing I kept her watered all day, I was surprised to see how dry she was. It wasn't until later when we went upstairs to brush our teeth and when I picked up the toilet seat and found out why she was so dry. She went all by herself. Amazing. 

Now I'm wondering if she is doing a short bounce back in some weird memory recovery. I know that will happen, it is usually a short period of time, then the enviably crash, some kind of free falling memory dump. As if she is able to use that part of her past one last time until it is gone of good. 

This trip is something that I've been asking my Driver about. With the lifting of cares that came from making the decision, then acting, makes this feel so right. I know we are going to be talking about this for the next couple of days. He knows the twist and turns ahead, so it won't surprise Him. For He know that it is all on the Road to Dementia Town, and a side trip to California isn't out of His way. We're good, driving down the Road to Dementia Town via a detour to California, with our Shiny Side Up. If you can make it, that's great, if not, just remember that when your on your Road to Dementia Town, you've gotta Keep Your Shiny Side Up. TTFN, Love Ya and God Bless.
