Out of the tunnel.

Her smiley self.


Like the river of life, there are not two days that are the same. There are the days that are close, the schedules fit together, it is the behaviors of each person that makes the difference. 

There are days when Sweetie seems to be misnamed. For she is anything but sweet. Then there are those days that makes honey blush because she is so sweet. I tell you, if I knew how to keep her this sweet, I would bottle it and give it away. 

Friday

I thought that if I could get Sweetie up just a little earlier, get her CBD earlier, more time to work, we would have a better day then yesterday. 

Got her up, she had soaked through which mean, at least, dehydration isn't the problem. It means, I got to change the sheets, again. Oh well, with each blessing, there is some work that needs to be done. 

In the bathroom, I found evidence that might of caused her bad mood from the day before. She had a very loose and mess movement. It was as if she wasn't feeling too good the day before. That could explain her crankiness and wanted to stay home. 

After we got cleaned up, she started with that million dollar smile, clear and sparkling eyes, and her good vibrations filling the room. 

From the get go, she was on top of the world, which meant for me, that I was there with her. The holding hands, the Dementia conversations, knowing she was pouring her heart out to me, I sat and gave her my whole attention. I must of hit the right answers at the right time, because the more I answered, the more she talked. 

We had one of the best days together in a long, long time. I was so uplifted, that at one point I turned to her and told her what a great day we were having. One of the memory books. 

Coming out of the tunnel, the sun seems so much brighter then when we went in. Driver had to put on His shades so He could see what was on the Road to Dementia Town. It seems that the tunnel emptied out into a valley full of wild flowers, soft green grass, with birds and butterflies. What a joyous day, full of beauty and Easter Eggs. There we were, in the middle, sparkling, because we had 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...
