Margie and I have been doing really well. We have been busy with multiple things lately so I've skipped writing. Things are the pretty much the same as always. Some days are good and some are neutral and some are terrible. I will share the best days.
One of the two best days since my last writing was when she and I and her daughter and some friends went out to eat. Margie really loved that. And she really loved the fact that I shared my birthday cookie and ice cream with her. But she is always happy when she has ice cream and sweets.
Another wonderful day was when she got to see her grandson in a play! There were some bad moments for her during the play because she didn't know where she was or why it was dark but we got through it. After the play when she got to see her grandson dressed up in his costume she smiled happily. Actually that is an understatement. She was beyond happy. The smile on her face was one of the best moments ever for me. She glowed.
There was a downside to the play though. Due to the high activity and interaction and simulation the days following the play were very difficult. During the moment it was fantastic but it caught up to her and she was exhausted for several days and rather grumpy. And that took a toll on me. We got through it though. We always do.
Now we are moving on to an new adventure! We are moving! Moving is going to be a huge shock to her and disrupt her schedule extremely. I already know this but moving is a necessity since Margie's bathroom is too small to fit the Hoyer lift. There have been times that I have needed it but had to figure out something else because the bathroom is just to small. So our solution is to move.
I probably won't have time to update my blog until after the move. And it might be longer than that because I will have to get Margie settled in and comfortable. Plus I have to clean and unpack and do all those fun things a person does when he or she moves. This is going to be a new hurdle to overcome. I will let everyone know how it goes!
