Connie , the Painter has left--and I have the main level looking like we live here --no pictures up---which seems a bit weird-- but-----I must think about it--- the walls do look absolutely gorgeous-- and I did sneak a couple clocks up--
---Lord love a Duck!!--Himself was banished to a bedroom downstairs last night, as I could not take all the thoughts --- about me--that was coming my way---- It all went over like a "lead balloon"----- I did end up calling his Doctor in the wee small hours of the morning, who promised me he would come out this morning--has not appeared yet--and what can he do anyway--
--So all for to-day---one more level to vacuum- Sadie is here--
So, life goes on--
This is Wednesday--mid week--How is your week going?--Wednesday is such a good day, because you know it is getting closer to the weekend--again,--- the Fall Colours are gorgeous-- the trees tho, are already dropping their leaves--and I can smell the leaves ---- so nice!
I am going to----- TOAST us all--all of us Beautiful Confused people who wake up and keep trying every Day----and, to the coffee that makes it all possible---Keep Your Chin up and keep going!
--I love yu all
MmmMmm..….I do love my coffee as soon as I get up….my motivation to face the day!! I do hope the doc shows up AND can help you…it is a real shame that you, the Care giver, is the recipient of the crazy ideas/talk…nobody can take that day in, day out!! Enjoy your beautiful fall leaf colors and breathe!! You are allowed some peaceful moments! ❤️

I accept your hugs--Thank yu--Lynda
DeleteGotta love a Wednesday, for sure. Hope the Dr. arrives and that the visit helps on some level! I feel the same way when my sister shows up! Which she does on Wednesdays after her workday... another reason to like Wednesdays!
ReplyDeleteMay yours be a good 'un! (( hugs ))
Wednesday --mid week--yes---so nice!-- and no DR came-- Crazy!--Maybe I woke him up-=--= and he forgot-- anyway I got thru it all-- Lynda
DeleteWE love you!
ReplyDeleteSigh....you handled last night the best way you could. Hoping that Dr. does show up and can do something....order tests, meds, recommendations, something.
I'm with you on the 3 stages of life. Sure not what I thought.
I, too, hope your sister will be able to visit.
Ahhh coffee...love it, need it.
Try to hang in, hang on and stay strong. Sometime this week the assessment lady is to come...hope its soon and there are helpful resources as YOU NEED HELP. Your situation is sounding more upsetting and happening more frequently.
I am glad you have your fresh house back but now you have only the dogs to talk to. It's my like scenario minus pets.
Hugs dear lady.
It was not a good nite for himself-- AND--the Dr never came-- i believe he will have to be living in the Lodge sooner than I ever imagined---Wasn't that so funny?---the 3 stages oF Life?----and yes, I do talk to the dogs----- I think Beau understands English--LyndaLOL--
DeleteIt's Kathy. I do so love my coffee - 2 cups in the morning or I am worthless! I saw my physical therapist this morning and I am good to go - at least I hope. She tells me that with nerve damage like I had it might be 2-3 years before I really feel like myself again. I have some specific exercises to do a few times a week! Progress is happening. I'm so sorry you had a hard time yesterday with himself. That must be so hard to deal with. I hope the doctor comes soon and can help!
ReplyDeleteNO DR CAME____ Can yu believe that?----I realize now that Himself will have to live in the Lodge--sooner than I ever imagined--Lynda
DeleteI only want one cup in the morning . . .then I am a tea girl the rest of the day. I am headed to my younger sister's house near Albany tomorrow and my older sister is coming from near Buffalo. On Friday the three of us are headed out for a sister adventure to Ireland for 2 weeks . . . so excited. I have never been "across the pond" before. My DH didn't want to go . . .my older sister is divorced so no hubby to go and we told my younger sister's husband that this was a sister trip . . .no boys allowed.
ReplyDeleteHope the doctor finally shows up . . . you courage though all of this is amazing. My thoughts and good wishes go out to you. Don't bother putting all the stuff back up . . .just what you will eventually want to keep when you do get to move. Another opportunity to declutter.
Enjoy your trip--I shall miss yu--- Yu must send pictures--My email is fldunloplake@vianet.ca ---I bet yu have a fantastic time Lynda
DeleteYes, that is a beautiful woman, indeed.!
ReplyDeleteGlad that Connie the painter is gone and you have your main level living space back to (mostly) what you had before.
Well, language may be not what I would normally use, but it describes things pretty accurately, too!
I SURE HOPE Himself’s Dr. comes to see him. Clearly something is going on. Sorry you had to banish him to another bedroom. *SIGH* That has to hurt, but . . . you don’t need insults and so on being hurled @ you, either.
Yes, thank goodness for coffee to keep us afloat, eh!
(((HUGS))) You deserve a million of them!

That Dr never came--Oh Barb--- I am beginning to see that Himself ,may not be living here in the near future--I could not handle him last night--- ewas kinda scarey--Lynda
DeleteGlad you called the doctor. Hopefully he comes up and can do something even if it's just prescribing medication which it appears that he needs. Good that the painter lady is done and the house can get back to normal! That should also quieten himself down some.I'd love to look like that lady too. Thanks for making us all laugh again. Enjoy this evening. Hugs Brenda
ReplyDeleteYu know, that Dr never came-- Isn't that terrible?--It was a bad night last nite---- I am quite sure that sooner than later, Himself will have to move into the Lodge--kinda sad-Lynda
DeleteHope the doctor finally gets there, figures out a place for Himself to go to, so you don’t lose your mind or worse. It is not necessary for you to put up with that anymore, would you think it fair if You did that to him day in and day out? There is no cure. It is a damned shame, of course.
ReplyDeleteHe is going to move into that Lodge-- as soon as this house sells--and I will move into a Garden place--I never thought it would be this way--but--- it is! Lynda
DeleteLynda, we love you, too! Saved the bitty girl with the coffee.
ReplyDeleteHimself actually lets you banish him? Wow! I would think you would banish yourself!
Looking forward to seeing photos of the new rooms. And again, are any of the pictures light enough to use those stick ons to hang them? Some say they're easily removable.
Got my spot across the street. Not looking forward to all the noise the next couple days, but it will be great not to have so many cracks and pot holes in our parking lot.
The leaves are so pretty, aren't they? Glad I don't have to rake them anymore, though.
On to meditation now. Sorry this is so short today. {{{HUGS}}}
Yu are truly amazing to write-- and yes, Himself was so much better to-day--I suppose all the painting upset him--and when he treats me like he did, he does not deserve to sleep with me--He does seem to be going downhill quite fast--Last night was a terrible night--but--- Isn't it good that to-morrow is usually better--Hugs--Lynda
DeleteI hope your day got better and you were able to get the doctor out. Yes, coffee does help us so much and I even drink decaf. I only see my sister a couple times a year so I do get excited. My younger sister, I only see her every few years. My middle sister and I are really close. It's about to rain here in Ohio. It's always nice to get a bit of rain to water my shrubs I planted this year. I hope your day got better. Hugs!:)
ReplyDeleteOh my goodness--The day went very well----Thank yu-Lynda
DeleteThat's great news!:)
DeleteSorry Himself wasn't Himself last night. It's a bit rough and probably also didn't help your sleep but I hope today is much better. I loved the coffee one and toasted right back to you with my new cup that I bought myself so I could get coffee to my desk without splashing it everywhere. It has a lid like you get with coffee cups from take aways but it screws on instead of pops on (which is good because I spill those too easily just trying to get the top on). It's insulated and holds 2 cups which makes up for the fact I need a sippy lid because of my shaking! It's the little things, and this thing makes coffee easier (and keeps it warm!) so I'm happy today. I just saw my oldest sister today - we had a nice chat before she went to bed. It was morning here and night time over there. FaceTime is a wonderful thing. We even have hugs worked out where we hug ourselves as we finish our chats. She lives near Atlanta, Georgia. We chat several times a week and I'm so grateful we have our times together. Stay Strong and be sure to be good to yourself - your give so much of you time to Himself, the dogs, the house and the yard - be sure to give to yourself too. ❤️
ReplyDeleteEverything I have read says that people with dementia get worse when there are changes in their life so the painter probably set him off. But you have to continue living too and painting will definitely help with the sale of the house. Dementia is progressive so moving him into the Lodge may be the best option. I read your blog but rarely comment but know that my heart goes out to you and my prayers are with you.
ReplyDeleteGreat photo of you Maria and Himself yesterday..I wasn't home all day so just now posting...also just love the pic of the beautiful young lady in the photo above...gee to look like that again.....sigh
ReplyDeleteDarlene not Anonymous.....wonder why it has dropped my name?
