Anvil of life.

Captured joyous memory.

In my office, on the mantle place, there are pictures of us and our travels. This is the one that is in my office, on the mantle, in our bedroom. Of all that could capsulate us, in my opinion is this one. I have it in a frame that is titled "You and Me." it is so fitting. 

I was the one that was bigger than life, and she was the one that balanced me. Amazing how she could in her quiet way, guide me out of making an ass of myself, to a graceful exit. 

Over the years we had our hot spots, our WWIIIs and there were times of when coming home from work, the idea to keep on going down I 40 and not making the turn off to home. Came close a couple of times, but we worked through it all, and here we are. I believe without our history, our blending our lives together on the anvil of life, we wouldn't be here today. I think our lives are now like a geode, hard on the out side, and beautiful on the inside. 

Sunday

It was an interesting day. I had been watching Sweetie with the Nanny Cam, and saw that she was heading toward the edge of the bed. My biggest worry is that she will role out of bed and hurt herself. So, I went in and moved her toward the center of the bed. Hoping that she would go back to sleep, and she did. I think I'm going to do this more often, it will relive my fears of her falling out of bed.

When I got her up, she was soaking wet, and so was the drop cloth and sheet. So, into the shower with her, clean cloths, and out to watch TV while I cleaned up, prepared breakfast, and got the day going. 

For our mall crawl, we did the usual one, then headed over to the other side of town for a extra walk. That turned out to be a big mistake. 

The other mall is more popular than the one on myside of town. Sweetie was a trooper, working through the crowd and I could tell that the cacophony of noise bother her. We got out ASAP, and headed for home.

Sweetie was restless most of the evening, and I was thinking that it was because I missed one of her CBD's. This morning, I realize it was the other mall, I think. Again, with a little patience and Stress Relief lotion, extra CBD, she did calm down, and we finished our day well. 

It was one of those days where I wanted to ask Drive just where He was taking us. Just when I was about to ask, I saw His eyes looking at me in the review mirror, and I knew, it was someplace that needed to visit, and would soon be back on the main Road to Dementia Town, where we could Keep Our Shiny Side Up. C'ya, Luv ya, and God Bless.
