Think I'll throw a pity party
Well, first of all, this is the 1st three day weekend I've had in almost a year, so for that, I'm thankful. And that's pretty much where it stops. Dave has had a rough couple of days. Saturday was so nice with the long bike ride to the Marina and all. Sunday he was sleepy most of the day, so he slept quite a bit. Monday was awful. He woke up before me, and as usual, made the coffee. He didn't put the coffee in the dealy, so he was drinking hot water and didn't even realize it. I got up and saw what had happened, so I made another pot with coffee, and prayed he didn't see, so I wouldn't have to tell him what he did. He didn't notice. As is our usual Monday routine, we went to the grocery store and shopped for the week. He shuffled along behind me, and then disappeared. I didn't know where he went! I kept shopping thinking he would catch up, but he didn't. I went to the restroom, and there he was, just standing there. Do you have to go? I asked. Nope, just have gas, he said. Apparently he was just standing there farting....I don't know. The rest of the day was uneventful. I did some chores that I have been putting off since we moved here a year and a half ago. We didn't get invited to any Memorial Day BBQ's this year. Our kids had other plans. Most of you who read this blog live out of town, but may I pose a question? Do any of you think we're not being invited to things because of Dave's AD? It's getting pretty lonely here, but I'm not sure if that's the reason. I guess I have to assume it is, since the invites stopped after the dx. Guess I'm just having a little pity party for myself. Sorry. Poor us. Anyway, we're bbq-ing like it's a holiday, so I better sign off. Thanks for listeneing. Hope you all had a great Holiday weekend. See ya next time in the blogosphere! Love you all! :)

You know we've all thrown that pity party for ourselves at least once! After Phil's dx, we still got invited to parties and gatherings, but as time and Phil progressed, the invites dried up. You can't really blame people though, sweetie. Look at it this way...you know that Dave is sometimes hard to manage in crowds. Maybe your friends and family are doing you a favor without even knowing it! I'll let you come to my next pity party if I can come to yours. And believe me, there WILL be another! :(
