Sweetie and youngest daughter.
Had one of those days that came straight out of of the theme of Happy Days. It started well and finished well. The reason I pulled this picture is that I told her youngest about getting cremation policies for us, about the ern, and memory box.
The memory box is for keep sakes and stuff. I'm not a imaginative type guy, and she is very creative. I asked her if she would take the box and do her magic with it. She's coming over tomorrow to get it. I know it will be done with extreme love and care.
With spring right around the corner, it is time for me to fumigate the house. About ten years ago, we had cockroaches in the pantry, and crickets in the other parts of the house. I tried everything to get rid of the pest. My last effort was to put out those home fumigation kits. It worked. After that, I began a regimentation of doing it twice a year. Spring and autumn. We have been bug free since. So, on Monday, before we head off to the golf course, I'm going to set off the bombs, so by the time we get back, it will be safe for us to come back in.
Friday.
The day went so well for us. When I got her up, she was smiling, eyes twinkling, and it was such a joy for me. It set the mood for the day. She didn't wet through, so I didn't need to change the drop cloths or wash sheets or change pants. Yea. She even had a small bm while she was sitting on the potty. Good start to what was to be a good day.
After breakfast, we were up and running. Heading for the golf course. It was breezier then I thought and Sweetie was chilled at the beginning. Before we left the house, I'd given her an extra does of CBD, as a precaution against bad behavior. It worked. She hung in there and by the time we were half way through, it had warmed up to where she was enjoying herself.
I'm trying something new with meals. I feel that by eating by the clock on the wall, isn't the best thing for her, or me. I can eat because it is time, yet my body isn't really ready to eat, not hungry. So, to use me as a timing device, I'm starting to have smaller meals twice a day, and a good dinner at the end. Sweetie eats because I put food in front of her, not because she is hungry. I don't think she has been hungry for a long time. When she eats, and she is hungry, the food disappears off her plate. If she isn't very hungry, the "I'm not hungry" behavior starts. I'm trying to find a balance of intake to match the energy output. That will also equated to a good night sleep. A healthier life style for both of us.
Healthier lifestyle is just right around the corner. Driver is seeing a better road ahead, and we are taking it. A chance to pick up some hidden Easter Eggs along the way. As we head down the Road to Dementia Town, Keeping our Shiny Side Up. C'ya, Luv ya, and God Bless.
