A joyous/sad time.

Her home away from home.



When I see these pictures of her and the ocean, I too want to make another journey back to the beach. I'm sure she could make the trip, but for what purpose? For me it would be a joyous/sad time. 

Would she feel lost? Would she understand where she is? And in the long run, would she remember? In my estimation, it wouldn't be worth it at all. It just might be a disaster and away from home, how would I handle it. 

Of course her taking CBD would smooth out most of the highs and lows of the trip. Again, with the pandemic, and restriction on traveling right now, would it be a good time to travel? These and many other questions bounce in my head and the need to get away from her builds inside of me. Then again, it is like having a motorhome, where you pack up all that is around you and take it with you. 

I'm looking at putting Sweetie in for a respite stay in a facility so I can get some time to myself for a week or two. For I am getting itchy too.  

Sunday


I'm having problems with the Nanny Cam, and will have to spend some troubleshooting time with the support team to resolve the problems. 

Sweetie is sleeping more, and depending on how you look at it, it is either a good/bad thing. Knowing that there is the possibly of her turning the time table around so that she is awake all night and sleeps all day long isn't a good thing for me. So, now my job, for my sanity, is to make sure she is up for the daylight hours. 

That is difficult for her. She doesn't want to get up, and I know if I let her stay in bed, she will leak through her pullups. So, as of now, I talk her into getting up, going potty, changing her, and letting her go back to sleep. Usually, for about 30 minutes. One of the ways to get her going is to tell her a meal is ready for her. Her hunger will get her up, and once up, I keep her up. 

I've learned how to let her know we are going out, and to phrase it in such a way that she will want to go with me. To get her up and moving is good for both of us. 

I'm going to go over our travel plans with my Driver. I noticed that there are some forks in the road coming up, and if He will, confide in me the path ahead. Knowing Him, we'll take the right road. Sometimes it doesn't feel right to me, so I trust Him for the days ride will end at the right place. 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...
