As the day progress.

Words not needed.


We have our own language, eye talk, smile talk and body talk. We have long ago moved into this time of life when words just get in the way. 

We've watched love movies, chick flicks, that can capture some of what we have, never all of it. I have heard of such love and wanted it, thinking that I'd never find it. 

I found it, and am blessed to have it. It is a love that is so pure, that it needs eyes, smiles, and body to express it, for words are stumbling blocks along the way. For this alone, I say to Dementia, Thank You. 

Tuesday

It is a good morning. I give her the first of many doses of CBD before I get her up and moving. This is working well for me. By the time I get her out of bed, the magic elixir is starting to work. 

In the bathroom, she gets her second dose, and again at breakfast, on her toast. By front loading her with CBD, it gives the rest of the day a chance of being as normal as it can be. 

This morning is a damp morning, and I'm thinking that it won't be a good morning for Sweetie to be out with me on the course. Setting her up to watch Veggie Tales while I'm gone, I'm off. 

With fall in full swing, the trees are skeletons of what they were just a month ago, and there is a drop in the overnight temperature which gets the geese to start their migration south. With the beauty of the day, I head for the first tee. 

Had one of the best rounds of golf I've ever had. Shot a 3 over, with a pars on the 1st, 4th 7th and 8th along with a birdie on the 5th. Again blowing it on the 9th. My putting is the main reason for such a good round, it is getting better. 

I just love/hate rounds like this. Because I will expect to do it again and again. I know today, I will have a bad round because of yesterday. I put pressuer on myself to improve each and every round, which is an imposability, and I know it. 

Home to find Sweetie just where I left her. VeggieTales is such good entertainment for her. I even like to watch them with her.

The rest of the day goes as planned. Lunch, mall and our walk about, home and couch time. She takes a nap, I pop a bag of pop corn, and start watching a war movie. I'm surprised at the quality of the movie. Most of what isn't movie theater quaity is just crap, this is good. With Sweetie getting up, I can't watch the rest of it, so, I have something to watch next time she naps. 

As the day progresses, we get ready of dinner. That meal that is becoming a question mark, as to what to have. Tonight, I came up with a veggie dinner. A nuked potato, with mixed veggies, butter and sour cream. Salt and pepper for flavor. Simple, tummy filling, and best of all, easy. 

As the evening comes to a close, we head for bed. Once in the bedroom, she heads straight for the bed, and is ready for sleep. That is where we ended our day. 

Driver had to turn on the windshield wipers this morning, something new. Didn't need them much, for the mist was quickly gone. There was a mix of clouds and sunshine to day on the Road to Dementia Town. Nothing to serious for either Driver or me. It was a good day to Keep Our Shiny Side Up. C'ya, Luv Ya, and God Bless.   Arthur.

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...
