Our lewy body dementia and parkinson diasese journey ...bought a new home

-


 

Well...I did it. Signed and paid for my first house. So unreal. I have never purchased anything that cost more than a couple hundred dollars on my own. Hubby did it all. Today I signed my name and almost cried. I went to the new house and we began to make a few changes. I feel like I am in a campground and just visiting and then going back home. Grandkids are all having a hard time. Everyone of them remember crawling up the steps from the family room to the TV room. Then later as they grew they would begin to jump the steps. So many memories for everyone. We have worked so hard on this home to make it ours. I struggle with everything now because I feel I am alone in all the decisions and steps. Jon and Val and Jeremy have been here helping but hubby just can't. I know a lot of you have lost your loved ones and are struggling. I understand. Hubby says about 15 words all day. No ideas, no comments, no interest. It's so hard. I want to turn to him for answers and he doesn't understand the question. My life is changing so fast and so many decisions. I feel exhausted and like there's no end to all this mess...Daughter has taken control, selling things as fast as she can, working things over...Jon is working out dates and plans to take on some extra projects to get done before we list the house...our next step is listing our home and praying it sells. Changes....I am not good at this....exhausted and going to bed....nite everyone...

Removing and replacing our old pathway

-

 We moved into our home about 15 years ago at that time we decided to place a walkway down through the yard to a firepit.  Our family loves to sit around the backyard fire and roast hotdogs and marshmallows.  We haven't done much to the walkway except spray it once in a while with weed kill but today we decided it was time to remove and repair.  So we began to dig out the bricks..it was amazing how some were buried and some were broken.  They all were beginning to sink down deeper and deeper. There was a lot of moss that had even grown over the top of them.  But hubby and I worked together and got them all dug up.  The pathway went from the deck to the firepit ring.  All of these bricks have been recycled we would watch for free ones.  Sometimes just driving down the road there would be bricks with a sign take all you want.  So some of these bricks have different says on them.  We also enjoy using our dutch ovens....

Our Lewy Body Dementia and Parkinson Disease journey

  I don't know if any of you facing these diseases have these problems, but I need to talk with the neurologist for some answers...mercy. Hubby has this crazy idea that he needs to search the house for things. I purchase a new vacuum because the belt broke on the old one. I got the same one but decided to keep one for downstairs and one for upstairs. So I put the old one way back in the furnace room until I can fix it and the new one up front easy to get to. Hubby is determined to climb back there and always get the old one. He moves the new one to get to the old one. I hide some shampoo that I wanted to give to daughter as it doesn't work good for hubby and I. He finds it somehow and starts using it. I hide some spray paint its the kind that will change a object into a mirror...he found it and sprayed it on lumber in the yard. Mercy...drives me crazy. Just saying....I told him we are going to Nampa on Thursday...to see the doctor. He got really mad that night at me b...
