Smiles

picture of a picture of us

Sunday morning, and with it comes the day of cleaning. Going to do some housecleaning today. I'm turning into quite the Artie Homemaker. Got plans to clean the stove, vacuum the living room. Maybe even see if Sweetie will help doing some dusting.  

Yesterday, was shower and haircut day. We had a small incident while in the shower, the shower head pop off and a hard stream of water hit Sweetie. When that happened she just wanted to get out of the shower as quickly as she could. I was able to calm her down, and finish washing her. 

After the shower, and dried off, I was able to trim her hair and her toe and finger nails without too much of a hassle. Something that has been bugging me, is the dirt under her nails. Trying to get her to wash her hands, and spend time in the water to loosen and clean her nails is a struggle. I can cut her nails short, which helps, but it doesn't get to the problem. There is so much dirt under her nails, you'd think she was a auto mechanic.

We had bacon and eggs for breakfast. Normally, I'd give her one egg, but because she isn't eating very much now a days, I tried two eggs and watched to see how she would do. She ate it all. You don't know how happy that made me to watch those eggs disappear, I sat there with a smile on my face. 

Getting a smile on my face these days is the working of my Driver. He knows the joys that lay ahead, that smiles are still available for the seeking. Seeking the good stuff, and when the good stuff seems no more, He provides some more, but different good stuff. I'm ready to go on an Easter Egg hunt this morning, as we drive down the Road to Dementia Town, leading a caravan of cars as we go, Keeping our Shiny Sides 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...
