Thank you all.
Today is much better.
Last night, for whatever reason, I only slept for 10 min at a time and at 12:30, finally got up to take something. I think I was overstimulated.
My headache is 80% gone, which helps.
difficult child is a bit calmer.
I'm not teary eyed.
And I spent a cpl hrs last night working on a eulogy for Dad, incl a cpl of poems. I did not speak at Mom's funeral. I just had nothing to say.
I know that my little sister, Molly, will speak. She's been down this road for so long, she could and should write a book on it.
She's done a lot of volunteer work and fundraising for Alzheimer's, too.
Yesterday, I stopped by a cafe' where my paintings are hanging, to pick up some toffee covered almonds I'd ordered. In line, I started to chat with-a lady I knew just from sight, and it turns out that she works for the local Alzheimer's Assoc and that her mother has Alzheimer's. It really lifted my day to be able to connect with-her. Funny coincidence. But I say when life puts things like that in your path, go for it!
