Our love is endless.

Our love is endless and cannot be washed away.


There are so many thoughts running through my brain this morning. Everything from the out pouring of love from you my dear friends to the events of yesterday. Though I do not know you, I know you and love you. 

What started out as a labor, a dairy, log of life with Sweetie, and as the year has come and past, has turned into a conversation with you, my friend. For we share something that most people don't, a disease that affects more than most know or understand. 

This story has turned into a blessing that I cannot describe. A joy that only out of sorrow can produce. Because there has to be an opposite to anything, before their can be choices. For without sorrow, how can their be joy? Without struggle, you cannot become strong, Without loneliness, you cannot have fellowship. I truly believe that is what is happening now, because of you. Thank you. 

Tuesday
Trying something new, let see how it works. It was a strange day for us. Sweetie was her normal morning gal. Not wanting to get up, but I got her up anyway. She was wet and I know she would get cold and smelly if I didn't get her out of bed. She is having a difficult time moving in the morning. I'm wondering how much longer I can go before she will need a walker. And then will she be strong enough to use it. 

Her skin is getting very sensitive now. If she isn't ready for me to touch her, dress her, or wipe her, ouch or oww is her response. It doesn't matter how gentle I am, she just hurts. 

A little different change for breakfast, we sat on the couch and ate toast. I made her her own, and then later, made some for me, sat down, and she wanted half of it. After that we repeated it one more time. 

It was cold and windy, so no golf. After spending a couple of hours watching Micky Mouse Club, Juniors, I wanted out. So, in the car, and took a drive. We headed northwest to Cuba. A nice 45 minute drive, one way, and back. It was enjoyable ride, with the New Mexico landscape going by. This is a very colorful ride, so Sweetie had many things to look at. 

It was a good time with Driver yesterday. Riding along, checking out the landscape, the colors mingling together. There was never too much dull colors and the right blend of joyous colors. And that is the way it was, as we travel 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...
