Coffee and chocolate.

Soon, very soon. Ho, ho, ho.

Yesterday was the winter equinox. The longest night of the year, and that meant it was the shortest day of the year. Even with the knowledge that it was all in the same 24 hour day. 

Outside my window, I watch the sunrise move from where it is now, the southern most sunrise, to start moving north, to the longest day of the year in June. As the sun moves, so does the seasons. Winter is upon us, and with that, spring is getting closer. What will 2022 bring us? For that, we'll just have to wait and see. 

For there are many forks on the Road to Dementia Town, and they all lead to the same place, it is just how smooth, or how difficult the road will be is yet to be known. 

Tuesday

Sweetie gets up easily enough. And with that we're off. She's wet, and so that means, she is getting enough water in her system. I know that dehydration is something that needs to be avoided. The weight of her pullups is a good indicator of how much liquid she take in. Don't enjoy the clean up, but the opposite is worse. 

We have a new cereal to try. It has almonds and stuff in it. In the past, she wouldn't eat crunchy stuff in cereal. It was, as if, she was telling me that it didn't belong in her cereal. This time, she ate it with gusto. 

It looks like it is going to be another beautiful winter day. Blue skies, in the 40's, with bright sunlight. No wind or breeze to speak of, and with that we're in the car and going to the course. 

Sweetie is bundle up warmly. I've got her winter jacket on her, double pants, and gloves. The sock/mitten seems to working out quite well. The nice thing is that she accepts it for what it is. 

There are a couple of men on the first tee and a chance to have some company this round. Ask if I can join them, and it is accepted. 

We tee off, and the game begins. Knowing nothing about these two playing ability, we're off. It seems that we play about the same, and it was a good outing. 

I was playing fairly well, good enough to birdie the 8th hole, and that made my day. 

Home for lunch, and preparing to head out for the bank. Need to make a depost. And we are going to do our walk about.

I have one last gift to buy for a friend. I've been so lucky to have him in my life. We've been through so much together. I was at his side as he lost his vison, go through a divorce, and the many other events that life can dish out. So, I try to find something special for him. This year, it is going to be some special coffee, and chocolate. 

After all of my chores are done, we head home for dinner and the end of the day. 

It was a good choice today, on the Road To Dementia Town. We had some lovely hill to watch go by, and the road was smooth. So, it was easy to Keep Our Shiny Side Up. C'ya, Luv Ya, and God Bless.
