TexasTiffany September 10, 2017 Share September 10, 2017 I've been watching The Weather Channel through the overnight and this morning. In the overnight Mike was bracing himself next to a tree, getting wind burned, "I'm trying to not do a face plant". Jim is fairing better this afternoon getting rained on in a parking lot. One gentleman was reporting from the beach. I didn't catch his name before he blew away. (j/k he didn't fall over that I saw) He was reporting how low the tide is. Conch shells that are usually under water are now exposed along the beach. He wasn't alone. He interviewed a young man out goofing around near the surf. No doubt he wanted to be on tv. He said he was staying at his parents place on the beach which is on the 3rd story. He thinks he's going to be okay. He said if things get really bad he's got a kayak with him. When the young man stepped away, weather guy said "this isn't the smart place to be right now." It was a light-hearted moment since the reporter is in the exact same place.

Thankfully, she is close by and I'm spending as much time as I can with her. Today I played her favorite music for her. Her opera and Elvis. She always called him her boyfriend. ;) She is sleeping mostly and slipping away, but I think somehow she knows. Thank you so much, Carpe!! Of course, TT. She has had dementia for 10 years. I've taken care of her since my father and brother died 23 yrs ago. I moved her to a wonderful dementia facility 8 years ago where she had a rebirth of sorts. Sounds funny writing that! But the kids and I (they were very young then!) really got to enjoy her again. Then 6 years ago after she broke her hip, I had to move her to a nursing home. The staff there have loved her dearly and been great with her. They and the other residents who are able have been coming in to say goodbye. They have told me how much they love her, always with tears in their eyes Her dementia has progressed to the point where she can't physically swallow any longer. Many years ago I got all her affairs in order. Her wishes were no extreme measures. I have taken no extreme measures. After my father died, i promised her I would never leave her alone. I have never left her alone. It has been the longest goodbye. Ladies, thank you. I don't know if I've made any sense at all, but writing all of this out has helped so much. Your caring and concern are overwhelming thank you You take good care. Was so sorry to read that your mom has passed. My sincere condolences for you and your family's loss. Hugs to you!

Cricket September 11, 2017 Share September 11, 2017 After our mutual melt downs yesterday, we went out on a boat ride on Lake George compliments of younger daughter's thoughtfulness for the free passes. I awoke this morning with the realization that I have to let my oldest daughter go. She causes me too much pain to continue down this path. Grateful for Joe, Kody, Michelle and my brothers and their families... as well as my family here. Because Kody is now certified as a service dog, he was allowed on the boat. Everyone loved him and he was perfectly behaved. Surprised me a little since he is only 3 months old, and it was a 2.5 hr trip.
