Rollercoaster day.

Queen of my heart.


There are times when I sit down and talk about my day with Sweetie, I struggle with looking at pictures of her that I have take over the years. 

As we have traveled down this road, I can see different groupings. Like this one here. It was a time when we would go to a certain Burger King, get breakfast, and watch the balloons float by. 

Sweetie just loved to watch the balloons, she would just get tickled. We can sit in our back yard and watch them there too. They will fly by, and if we are in the house, there is a sudden darkness, then light again. The balloon's shadow had move across our house. They, sometimes, would be close enough we could yell greetings, and then they would float away. Hurried on the by the breeze. 

Sunday

I had prepared myself for Sunday morning. From the night before, Sweetie bottom was busy most of the evening as the M of M was at work. I had to take off her overnight pad, because she had soiled it, so I knew what was waiting for me when I got her up. I wasn't disappointed. 

For the second morning, she went into the shower. Once that is over, she needs time to recover, and that is what she did. Back to bed, and rest. These seems to be the new pattern for her. Her new normal, (your going to be seeing this more and more.). She may fight and struggle, but at this time the benefits out weight the struggle. 

I'm hesitant to say this, but so far, we haven't had to deal with UTIs. I've learned more about Sweetie's plumbing in the past 3 years. How we have gone from her doing it solo, to me cleaning her up. Knowing that UTI's are common, I just am thankful we haven't had to deal with them. Knock on wood. 

It was a bit of a rollercoaster day. Driver would say, it was "over the river and through the woods" kinda day. He must of knew just where to end the drive yesterday. For the end was the perfect. We stopped at the Inn of Cuddling, where the couch was welcoming, and the day ended well. Just another day of letting my Driver take the wheel. 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...
