Murder/Suicide by Sun Chips OR If You Would Just Think!

         4:38 in the morning.  Creeeeak.  Rustle. Rustle.          Ah, Maxine’s up!  A little earlier than her usual, of late, but as we well know, not unheard of.  The rustle, rustle means she’s disposing of her bathroom waste.  Could that mean she’s already been successful with her bowels moving so soon?          I’m sorry, readers.  … Continue reading Murder/Suicide by Sun Chips OR If You Would Just Think!

Waddup with my REACTIONS to Maxine

I am aware I carry a lot of free floating, untargeted, unpretty anger.  I'm pretty much flummoxed, though, why I am so over reactive to this little (small, small, yet not as small as my own paternal grandmother -- in her time) person, now so aged.   I can begin with, I suppose, that she … Continue reading Waddup with my REACTIONS to Maxine

Can I, Will I, Ever Get “Over” It?

         I was just having a lie-down about an hour ago.  Since I haven’t been out of bed all that terribly long, and since I do that somewhat often, I have to think I’m seriously flirting with clinical depression.  It seems to be that, or aging in some kind of speed tunnel.           Night … Continue reading Can I, Will I, Ever Get “Over” It?

July 4th, 2011 With ANGST in the belfry

          I’m pretty sure we all experience that if we get around the net enough, we run into contradictions regarding just about everything.  I’ve been posting about the Ten Signs of Alzheimer’s I found when I discovered Jacqueline Marcell.  The first five each got their own post:  memory loss, difficulty performing familiar tasks, problems with … Continue reading July 4th, 2011 With ANGST in the belfry

SELF ESTEEM GONE WHANG!

Lying in bed this morning, hoping to get back to sleep, I roused myself thoroughly with the thought, “my self esteem is all tied up in this!”  What the #*@%^*#!         Why on earth would I allow myself to depress over whether or not another adult eats what has been lovingly prepared for them … Continue reading SELF ESTEEM GONE WHANG!

Difficulty performing familiar tasks

          I just looked down on today’s earlier post and realized I had used the work “post” twice in the same paragraph, same sentence, without even thinking.  It appears this new life may be growing on me.  Wahoo!             Ok, let’s see what I might contribute towards the 2nd Warning Sign on … Continue reading Difficulty performing familiar tasks

Loss of Memory may indicate one “might” have Alzheimer’s

In this post, I want to begin with the 10 Warning Signs of Alzheimer’s that Jacqueline Marcell brought to my attention with the other things I alluded to on my previous post.         I have come to suspect that I am not alone as far as wanting to escape the entire notion of Alzheimer’s.  Who … Continue reading Loss of Memory may indicate one “might” have Alzheimer’s

Not a good match — a Bipolar with an Alzheimer’s patient

         OK.  I’ve been staying away cuz that last post had just a little too much temper, and since the temper was mine, it’s been eating me alive.  Regrettably, since writing that sentence nearly an hour ago and coming back to this page now, I’ve experienced another bout.  I thought it time … Continue reading Not a good match — a Bipolar with an Alzheimer’s patient

This is not crazy. This is brain cells dying!

     She's crazy.  This is nuts making.  At one in the morning, duty calls.  What is going on?  I woke about 12:20 AM and noticed a light coming from the living area.  My exhaustion has become so mind-numbing I had gone to bed before 7PM.  Hearing the TV come on  (I could hear it … Continue reading This is not crazy.
