What a line.
I spoke with my friend, the retired nurse with dementia. She announced she had early onset Alzheimer's like I didn't know that. She says her family is taking good care of her; she can no longer go to lunch because she's afraid she will pee on the floor. She wants me to call her and chat. She said she falls apart between 5-7 pm and has to go to bed.
She can no longer cook, outside of maybe making a pot of coffee.
She's such a good soul. She says she feels fine until she tries to talk. Her attention span is reduced, due to stress of conversation but she still wants to have them.
This is like watching a person be eclipsed.
Jardiance came on and my husband was nude, getting into the shower. He backed out and came and danced his part, naked. Lol
We made out bi monthly Costco run and met one of my daughters and her family for lunch, went back to the campground , had a nap and went for a golf cart ride around the resort and talked to friends. The season isn’t official until next week, but we’ve been at this resort for 16 years and the owner likes my hubby and has no problem if we set up early. We needed this. Away from stress and living s bit silmpler. Even if for only a couple days a week.
find your happy place and your tribe. People places and actions that make you happy will go a long way to relieving all the bad stuff.
we didn’t realize how much we needed this until we grabbed a beer and jumped into the golf cart.
it's so obvious but i dont really see it, but i noticed that i survived through trauma because i immersed myself in writing reading and drawing and later painting, but my favourite is writing, novels and living an imagination in my head. I was watching a clip of this show where this lady tattoo artist was interviewing many of her creative clients and how they had very traumatic and abusive upbringings plus lots of bullying in schools done to them, and they would fall in love with collecting art or comic books and drawing comic book characters and how it saved him, and the same with the tattoo artist who loves her craft and it saved her from trauma. Then i read about how art is a therapist, any kind of art. I remember reading how Van Gogh was diagnosed by people who studied him that he had a kind of schizophrenia or trauma, and how he just healed and healed himself through his paintings, going on and and on, and how he now heals others through his works because it brings joy to others. This is also with musicians and any type of art. We're all kind of healing in some way and it's good to start children with some kind of creative craft, to heal their souls and minds. Life is hard enough already, and making beautiful art brings joy to the world. I think this might be attributed to Neptune, saving yourself through beautiful art. illusions and imagination.
