Living with an Early-onset Dementia Diagnosis
If you’re looking for some sort of indication of how things are going in my life, the fact that it’s June and my Christmas decorations are still not put away might give you a clue. The Christmas tree is down and packed away. But that’s about as far as I’ve gotten. Continue reading “I’m Playing Checkers – the Universe is Playing 3-D Chess”
Tough Decisions Ahead
First day at the new job!
I’m so excited to start the new job today. I don’t have to be there until 9:30 for orientation, but I made sure we were up and out of the house at the regular time (7 am) so that M could start his day normally and I could have a few minutes to myself before the day really begins.

I have it on very good authority that my traveling men are only 4.5 hours away from home . . . although they’ve planned a day Continue reading “Home Again, Home Again, Jiggity Jog”
It sounds like the trip is going so well!
My traveling men called as they got on the road Thursday. It was about 2 pm Eastern time, which was 11 am on the West Coast Continue reading “America the Beautiful”
When I think about how far our younger son has come in the last 18 months . . . it is mind-boggling. He entered the Coast Guard on May 1, 2018 and, although he joined on his own – no one talked him into it – he would have told you he was being forced into doing it.

We did it!
We got M packed, to the airport, on the plane and to our younger son Continue reading “Success!”
