Little Ivan was sitting on the ledge early this morning singing loudly, at the top of his lungs, before heading to bed!!!
I think he's feeling much, much better!!! Sweet Myra was sitting below, in the water bowl, looking upward...and smiling (ya, she does that!!). She knows he's better, too. As for me, well, I couldn't be happier....or more joyful!! ~Theo~

We had our Christmas luncheon today at work. Many of the retirees come to it and ya get to see people that you only see once a year and some only every few years. To look at some of these people now and realize they were actually younger than I am now, when I started to work there sorta gives me the willy's. But it was a fun "reunion" of sorts with lots of joy, laughter, and well sometimes there are tears too amongst us.

Teaching...
about 400 docs, nurses and social workers today about advanced Alzheimer's Disease. Instead of citing stats and a powerpoint presentation of graphs and research design I decided to scrap that approach and make it interactive. I led them down a hypothetical corridor to the room where they were diagnosed with the disease. Each student had a bag of items to help them 'become' the patient. 2 keys, a bottle of pills with specific (basic) directions of how to take them (the 'pills' were M&M's and Hot Tamale candy) and a photograph of someone that was supposedly a close family member that they were to identify by name (the photos were of my family and friends).
I have never seen such energy as these professionals took this exercise to the maximum impact. They stepped into their role as a patient and the impact was beyond anything I ever suspected it would be. There were tears and laughter but best of all I think I imparted what ~ in some ways ~ it feels like to not know yourself, anyone you have loved, and the lack of capability to carry out simple tasks. It was powerful. I feel humbled to have been their instructor. |

WOW!!!!
I see SUNSHINE!!!! shining through the blue hazy fog that's laying over the beautiful farm land!! I love living in the country, where there's no city buildings to block my view like this morning. And it's warm out.... just a slight chill, but warm enough that I only needed my Pink Panther bathrobe on and not an arctic coat to walk the dogs! I SEE SUNSHINE!! |

My daddy telling me I could pick out the home we will live in (eventually) in Texas with hym. OMG! (That's more like a scream but I have a smile from ear to ear!)
Taking my aunt to the Dr. today..recieving the wonderful news that in a month, (approximately 2 months after her right toes were amputated due to diabetes) she will finally be fitted with a shoe that will have her up and running and raising all kinds of stuff as she'd done before. We both wanted to do a little happy dance but I told her she'd have to wait til she got her shoes on! lolol.... The cute lil butch that helped my aunt at the Dr's office....she was very sweet to her, that's why I smiled. (Sorry daddy, I promise I was good). My aunt telling me I am beautiful. Finishing an application that had been kicking my butt and was looooonnnggggg overdue. Feels good to be able to submit it! A very lovely Christmas dinner for FiveFold Leadership only, to which I have been invited and have been told to expect a surprise! Woohoo! Fitting back into a gorgeous, festive, hoilday dress I will wear tonight. Feeling loved and blessed and filled to overflowing with blessings and good things in my life. Wishing everyone the same! Love, Shug
