Finished dinner and watching the rain. It’s calming ...

Have a headache, though. Sad

I need to get a better picture when the light is better, but this was my project for today.

Just heard from my mom. Her partner is close to a decade into a diagnosis of Alzheimer's and the inevitable day has come. She clearly cannot be cared for safely at home any longer.

That’s sad news, but sounds like it was somewhat anticipated? Sorry to hear. Heart

Sorry to see that. My MiL is in a care facility, 2+ years.

Thank you, that's very kind.

Yes, we've been expecting this would come eventually since the diagnosis. We all know that in all lilelyhood we're approaching the end.

Honestly, I'm surprised it didn't happen sooner. I'm more worried about my mom. She lost her mother the same way.

Very sorry to hear this.

I hope your mother gets the support she needs through this trying time.

Trying very hard to get my second book ready to be seen by the public on Amazon. I've been going over 357 pages finding small spelling errors or adding a comma here and there.

Each week I get closer and closer to having it done.
