It's hard to understand that I can have a decent night's sleep for a few nights, then struggle to sleep for the next couple. It didn't matter if I was in my Recliner or Bed, I could not stay asleep. I finally started my day at 7:35 this morning.
I had the chance to get things ready for breakfast, as well as starting my morning reading on the Computer before Kathy came out to join me. Breakfast was a Muffin and a Yogurt Cup before taking our Coffees to the Computers. By the time the Coffees were finished it was time to get ready to leave.
With an early afternoon appointment pending, I chose not to have to deal with a stack of Dishes and decided to use one of those newly aquired Coupons to have lunch at Wendy's. We beat the rush and had enjoyed our meal by the time many were coming in for their breaks.
Heading
west on Tecumseh
Road,
we were surprised to see blocks of pavement missing, with a paving
crew already laying down a new base. At least it wasn't a Detour
but simply reduced lanes.
As soon as we pulled into the parking lot at Windsor Essex County Alzhiemer Society Center, Kathy started telling me, she wasn't going in and she didn't need their help. Strangely, I said it was me that needed their help. She calmed down, and followed me in.
We barely sat in the waiting room before Kay brought us to her office. Her job was to get our information and explain what we would be doing today. She also made Kathy aware that even though they would help her, to try to slow the memory loss down, they would help give advice to the Care Giver, as she looked in my direction. The more she spoke to us, the more Kathy calmed down. Our daughter Karen and son Kevin have been added to the Alternate Care Giver List.
We were sent over to meet Lori, who explained what the difference between Dementia and Alzhiemer was, and how the Brain Function causes the problem. She gave us an information package of support groups and Dietary Suggestions. Studies have shown that Red Meat adds to the affect these diseases. Chicken, Pork and especially Fish will help Brain Function. She also mentioned that the Mediterainian Diet, proved to help the most.
We have a lot of reading to do. If we don't call them again within Six Months, they'll be calling us. I'll share some of the Information they gave us, with our Readers. It might help you, if you have to deal with someone suffering with these Diseases.
My Amazon order was delivered just before Guardian Storage was about to close yesterday, so we swung by and picked it up just before they closed today. Also, because we were in the middle of Rush Hour, we stopped at A&W, where we enjoyed their $6.00 Buddy Bundles for supper. We took our time eating, so by the time we left, traffic was starting to thin down.
As per usual, when we have large Grocery Purchase like yesterday, we are bound to miss something, so we made another quick stop at Zehr's grocery store. Today, everything we purchased fit in a single Shopping Bag, but it was good exercise.
We later watched "Forensic Files" before watching the "11 o'clock Local News". The evening News Achor was missing last week, but tonight they explained that Richardo, had been in an Accident with his Motorcycle. He'll be back as soon as he can. Today's temperature reached 76 F (24.3 C).

It’s about time.

What did one eye say to the other eye?
Between you and me, something smells.
I hope you work things out to successfully slow down the memory loss.
