Spike's Bitches 34: They're All Slime and Antlers
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

(((Bev))). You're allowed to feel sorry for yourself every once in a while. Sometimes, it's easier for me to get over it and do what I need to do, if I indulge in a bit of self pity.
Some of my relatives have been trying to tell me that my grandmother's been getting mentally slower. On the one hand, I can see where the stuff she's doing looks like classic beginning stages of dementia, on the other she's one of us which means things like giving mouth to mouth to a fish, freeing all the bait crickets and worms, or vaccuming at 3 am so you "won't disturb anyone." (All things done by members of my family who no one suspects of losing their minds).

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
Thanks, guys. Sane is good, I like it.
Well, except for the inventively, creatively crazy. You know, the sort that relieves the monotony of the everyday and makes a person giggle. That kinda crazy I like.

Oh, Bev. That's so hard. And you not feeling one hundred percent on top of it sucks.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

I think, "Meta me there," is possibly the best part.The meta was my favorite part as well. The rest I might take a red pen and edit, but the meta stays.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.
Bev, I'm gathering up a whole box full of Harvey purrs to send you for the Best. Warm-Fuzzies. Ever.
Daisy, I think the main thing is to compare the person to their own norms. It sounds like that might make quite a challenge in your family, as doing wacky things for reasons that seem like a good idea at the time appear to run in your family. For me it hit home that my mother's mind is seriously not what it used to be when my sister informed me that mom had not been brushing her teeth regularly. Mom used to go through a 5 minute oral hygiene routine after every meal, wouldn't do anything else before attending to that. If that's slipped, that's some major slippage. I dunno if there is an easy way to translate that to anyone else's quirks.

It's really difficult to do with Mimi. She's the one who told me my uncle was decapitated, but doing much better. I do think that they are right about assisted living though, because she is all by herself in the house and it's hard for a lot of us to get down to the lake, whereas in-town lots of people are around and lots of people go there for holidays and visits.
