I wear her ring.
I told you about her ring and the chain, when I look at it, I feel like an old fool, caught up in the past. I know that I'm not. I'm just a man that loved a woman so much, that I had to keep something of hers that will be with me to my end.
At my age, I feel that I have some years left, and I don't know what awaits me and as for now, I am quite content in living where I am. Then again, I know that I am not the decider of what tomorrow holds. We will just take it one day at a time.
Sunday
It is the beginning of daylight savings. Oh how I hate this time change. My prayer is that these silly politicians get there heads out into the sunshine, and get rid of this stupid, non-useful rule.
And for the first time in a long time, it is Sunday, and there is a church service I'm looking forward to.
After my morning with prayer, reading, meditation, and zoom meeting, I'm getting ready for church. It is a small gatherings, and I need to check with the pastor about Sweetie's memorial. We were so blessed and now I feel lead by my Higher Power to this small congregation.
After service, we chat, talk about what we want to do, the music and the photos for the slide show. I ask him to make a small, short message about Sweetie and her walk with the Lord. He is pleased hearing about her faith, and wanting it to be the point of his message.
Yesterday, Jonethan and made plans to get together and watch "The Batman" movie. He comes down with his backpack, and away we go.
I wasn't too impressed with the movie. Maybe because there have been so many before this one, and the stretch to set this one apart, well for me, was a stretch.
After the movie, I told Jonethan about getting a video game player for me. I like to play games, and now that Sweetie isn't with me anymore, it can be a way to pass the time. And with him being with me, I can use his expertise to assist in getting something that will be good for my ability, Old Man mode.
That is when I find out that I now have a house guest for the rest of the week. Surprised and happy that he wants to spend the time with me. A chance to mend some fences and build a new relationship.
He installs the X-Box, and I make dinner. He gets in done, and we have dinner.
Finish the night watching something, and head to bed.
Since Me and Driver have time on our hands, we decide to see what there is to see. As we wonder about, looking to fill our time, we head for the movies, and run into my grandson. He too is looking lost here in Dementia Town. Ask if he'd like to join us. He does, and off we go, looking about, Keeping Our Shiny Side Up as we wonder. C'ya, Luv Ya, and God Bless. Arthur.
