Sun is out here too!!!!!!!!! 50/60's rest of week with sun! I can handle alot with sunshine!
Lori- WHOOT- now truly begins your vacay! So glad the sun is out! I truly am excited for you! Can't wait to hear where you go and what you do!!!!!!!!
Trig- Urghhhhh and urghhhhhhh - I am truly sorry you are having to watch this so up and close! We all are going to help those walk that path then it will be our turn! We are the generation after this one!
So the little girl was a memory I am HOPING!!!!
I so feel ya on watching those we love get to this point. I too am thinking I will never let it get there.
I have a personal friend who was DX with early stage onset dementia- she is in a facility and doesn't know her name, or remember how to eat. She was one of my besties when I was in Ohio. So so so sad. She is so young too- early 60's. She was diagnosed when she was 56, my age. So truly we just never know.
You are so doing the right thing with you mom by placing her in a facility equipped to handle all that. Visit often but leave her there, her new home.
Take every day and just do what needs to happen! Huggggsssss my friend. You have done it all right!!!!!!!! No guilt or regrets!
Nic- I know you are excited about your AUSTIN trip!
Hopefully you too will get some warm sun on your face! Safe travels and truly have some fun! Life is short and enjoy every minute with your dad and SM. Is hubby going too or is this a solo trip?

Finally some sun! I am going to hit up the beach myself this afternoon! It will be a bit cool so leggings, flip flops and a jacket! All good. Maybe there will be some good shells washed up from all those storms the last few days!
So I have squared up my next landing spot. Charleston/Folley Beach. St. James Island to be exact. It is over the bridge from Charleston and Folley Rd dead ends into the beach. I have been there many times and really wanted to rent a spot on St. James but it is really $$$$$$- Then on the other side is Mt. Pleasant where all the good shopping is and north of course is Charleston proper!
It is a 2 bed/ condo ten minutes from the beach/ 15 minutes to downtown/ 20 min to Mt. Pleasant!
Now I can plow into the job hunt again. My systems are up and running, housing out of the way, and a beach walk on the planner today. Feeling good! Going to wash the gray outta my hair today. So that will be a plus!
So a J O B would be a the icing on the cake so to speak! Time to get back at it.
So yeah- yesterday I made a chopped salad period and I am up 3 pounds. WTF? Salad? this 3 pound swing is so annoying. I used a head of romaine and cut it up myself....... oh wait..... I used feta- there ya go. It just sounded good ya know???? Just a really simple chopped salad- two hard boiled eggs and feta and ranch. It was really good. But there I have it- that dam dairy.
Today I will make the orange roughy that has been thawed and use or lose it today. It is $$ too!
Simple food today.
Simple walk, simple food, simply checking out jobs- at my own pace.
Peace all!!!!!
