  Today it's hot and I am home so staying in the AC home....cleaning and getting caught up on housework. I go to our room to change sheets and pick up and I find a pair of matching socks laying neatly on the floor side by side next to hubby's dresser. Why??? I grab them and toss in the laundry. I then go to the guest room to clean there I find next to the bed a pair of socks on the floor neatly placed side by side. So I grab them and think what??? Been married to this man for over 50 years this has not been one of his problems....another pair in by his chair...another pair next to the couch. So I finally go ask him...."he has no idea and doesn't remember putting them there".....what would make him obsessed with socks.....mercy.....6 pairs all laid out and ready I guess........

  Well, it's been one year today...that hubby collapsed at Walmart. Yes, he had issues before this and doctor after doctor could not figure out what was wrong. was so stressful...than he just collapsed at Walmart and fell over on the cart in pain. We found out he had a large hernia extending out on his side...so then doctor after doctor until a surgeon could get him into surgery. Three emergency room trips with it coming out and each time getting bigger. But this brought about more symptoms on the other things that were going wrong. So, they finally sent us to Meridian and the neurologist knew exactly what we were facing. I have to say she was right as things have gone downhill pretty fast since that day. We are still seeing four different doctors and each one just shake their heads as they know our days are limited and there is nothing to change the course of these diseases... Yes, I know we are to rely on the reports of the Lord and not the report of man. But we are all h...

  Put hubby to work today...yard work. ..he did pretty good then i finished

  Working on Maizy Belle as much as I can I get tired pretty easy with this cold....but getting her ready to make her final trip to Wallowa Lake....this will be my last year to go camping there....our kids are not interested in camping there and it's getting to much for me to try to handle brent, the camper and truck....so going to make this year a special one and make memories...depending on the months ahead whether I will sell her or not....but I do know 4 hours one way to Wallowa is just to hard for me....so another Labor day at wallawa lake and then moving forward to the next chapter....just trying each day to keep my hand in the Master's hand....

  I worked today doing what I love to do...working with son in construction...it gets me out of the house, meeting new people and using my body...win win...and I also get paid. But tonight I want my hubby back. I know we are all told we can not live in the past....I need the past. I come home from work. Hubby has not answered his phone all day. Did not hear it ring. So I was worried about him. He never ate all day...not sure why....just was setting in his chair with no TV on...just setting. I come in and tell him about my day...about me being sick....about needing to fix dinner...about this is August and we have certain things we need to do in August....such as order fuel for the furnace etc.... And then I get upset....he is just setting there not saying anything....then he goes and puts his shoes on....I say what are you doing...getting ready to go with you....no I am not going anywhere....then I get a virtual slap....he hadn't understood a word I said. no reasoning nothin...

  If you know anything about LBD you know that REM sleep disorders and hallucinations are all part of it....hubby hasn't had a problem with hallucinations but he has had REM sleep disorders......he has had dreams where he is fighting off animals or people trying to hurt the grandkids.........or he tries to run away from different situations........this is where he will fight the air, the bed, the chair, swinging his arms and legs and sometimes....gets me.....but all in his sleep.......he is on meds for this so it is so much better.......but lately he has been having dreams that are different........he is enjoying his dreams....he dreams about being a little boy, about his early years of semi-truck driving, church services as a child, him setting down and preaching to young people on the streets.....dreams he is loving and tells me all the details......he is so happy telling me these stories.....these are good times.....I got us drinks from the drive threw and took us down to hells ...
