It really is sad watching a loved one who has Alzheimer's slipping away. My sister-in-law passed away two years ago from Alzheimer's. It's a horrible disease. My wish is that they can find a cure for it.

Rest in peace Yvonne.

Hopefully you will remain healthy during the peak season there for colds and flu.

Enjoy your visit with the grandkids!

In response to "8th entry Bard’s Hall "

Dementia and Alzheimers is never easy for family members watch as it takes away a loved one's memories and often leaves the body still living. My husband's grandmother lived with Alzheimers. My own grandmother had dementia. I don't think loved ones are really prepared to deal with it. The challenges really bring out the best or the worst in the supporting family members. Our last dog, Amelia, who was such a sweetie, got something in her lungs and it made it impossible for her to eat. Ultimately we made the decision to euthanize her and I cried like a baby, realizing just how much I cared for her, and I didn't really appreciate it at the time. I have learned a lot from all the pets I've had. They're great teachers.

for Yvonne.

In response to "Writing, baking and the joys of getting older"

Yearly tests with all the worry about passing would be daunting.

The smell of freshly baked cakes is something my nostrils can sense even behind this screen. I also did a lot of baking over the years for family. Kids are grown and I stopped doing that much baking. Over time I cut most of the sweets out of my life. Now I can't really eat them because it's not appealing anymore. It affects my palate in a way some people would feel with something very sour like sucking a lemon.

I figured, with diabetes in my family's history I'm only helping to avoid it by declining sweets. So far, so good.

In response to "7th Entry Bards Hall"

Writers do feel strongly about their stories.

I've been really terrible about editing stories I wrote for a contest that had potential, but then I got bored with editing since the contest ended, and I moved on to newer things.

Have you tried posting your story or stories up to 3 on "The Shameless "Plug" Page"

?

Also, You could request a review from another member who has their review request turned on.

Those yearly tests are probably keeping folks alive. I often ask folks about when they are going to give up their keys. We are fortunate to have alternatives in this town.

I forgot about this contest. I've entered in the past.

Although such events as the one you witnessed can be horrifying, it’s also a privilege to see Nature in the raw, isn’t it?

Fun words on a Saturday: cooking, frying, silence, potato chips, restaurant, chef and salt. There's a connection to the date and these words, can you guess what?

I’m unsure of the connection with today’s date. Maybe it’s a special day in the USA which we in Australia don’t observe. Anyhow the words made me think of fish and chips and how hungry I am right now. I love salty potato chips but they must be sprinkled liberally in vinegar.
I love to go to our famous seafood restaurant in Fremantle and to watch the chef frying mounds of chips and then as he lifts golden pieces of battered fish out of the hot oil. The chatter at the table stops and silence reigns as every begins to eat.
However I hate the lingering smell the next day when I’ve been cooking fish and chips at home.
