Pete's Birthday

Today my DH is 58. We went to Coyle's for an early supper. We eat mid-afternoon, when they still have the lunch prices for the buffet, plus he's in the birthday club so his was free. We picked up my mom from the nursing home (she has lewy body dementia), she was having a good day today, lots of laughing and joking and fun. One of the big differences between LBD and Alzheimer's is this fluctuating cognition. You never know whether the LBDer will be totally confused, or almost normal from one day (or week, or month) to the next...whereas Alzheimer's victims have a more steady decline...anyway, I was happy that my mom was having a good day.

Tonight we're going to the Pines, our little theater here in town, to see Marley & Me . I don't usually see movies that have a Kleenex alert, but it looks like a good movie so I'll just grab a box of tissues and try to enjoy it anyway.

Windy here today, gusts to 45 mph. We had horrific winds yesterday (or was it Saturday?) also, saw much destruction along M55 today, mostly from tree limbs falling.

Just tossing around a thought, my sister is planning to go, at some point, to see her son and his family in MN...thinking of possibly going with her, just for the ride and the experience. We have fun together. She might want someone to talk to about her son and grandkids or whatever. I dunno...if I can save up enough $, since Pete says it would be ok with him, I might just do it...haven't done anything like that in a while...

Don't know why this blog site won't let me upload my music. That was kinda half the point of making my blog here. What's up with that?
