Shout the praises of CBD.

It snowed and is still snowing. 

My post yesterday, was correct in what we were going to do, accept for the second trip to the mall, that didn't happen. It snowed all day, and as of this morning, it is still snowing. According to the weather reports, it is going to continue to snow most of the day. This is the earliest it has snowed here that I can remember. 

The time to shout the praises of CBD are now. For I was giving Sweetie a dose every 2/3 hours, and we got through the day without too much trouble. I did make a mistake by trying to watch a scary movie, and it was too much for her. Lesson learned. You would of thought I had learned that lesson before, and I had, it was just a refresher course. 

I don't know how much Sweetie understands what snow is. It used to be one of her favorite things to watch. Watching it fall, as the scenery would change, the snow would cover everything, turning everything into soft white mounds snow. She just loved it. Now, I'm sure she doesn't know or understand what is happening. 

We went to the mall earlier in the day, and it was lightly snowing . When we walked into the mall, she was complaining about all the stuff on her. I brushed it off, and told her what it was, again, not a sign of recognition of what snow is. It was the same when we got back into the car, stuff all over her, she almost panicked. I was able to calm her down, and give her another dose of CBD. 

Today, it looks like we are going to be snowed in, again. That is OK, for my Driver and I will work out the day, and with His guidance we will make it through. Rain or shine, snow or no snow, all things work for the good, as long as I listen and follow my Driver's lead. If it was better times, it would be snuggling on the couch, with a cup of hot cholate, but now it will be sitting on the couch, with a blanket, holding Sweetie's hand, as we pass the day away. With one eye on the TV, and the other eye on the clock, as to when to medicate Sweetie, we will get pass this day. For it is one day at a time, as we motor down the Road to Dementia Town, Keeping our Shiny Side Up. C'ya, Luv 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...
