My New Years Resolutions
“Never leave your purse lying around and be glad he still
remembers who you are.”
~~The Poet~~
I resolve that the next time my husband goes for walk to the
shop and comes home with a trolley full of lollies, biscuits and cakes, before losing my temper I will go outside and do six triple twist somersaults on the trampoline, come back in and smile sweetly as I find room for all the stuff, finding the docket in one bag for over $400.00.
I resolve that I will not even lose my temper when I have to call the shop
to tell them that someone has left a trolley of theirs in our driveway.
I resolve next time it happens, not to implicate my husband, as being the reason we are unable to pay bills this month, when I call each company to ask for an extension of time to pay.
I resolve to give away as much as possible of the sweets, not allow my
diabetes 2 suffering husband to eat them and try very hard not to eat
any myself.
I will try very hard to laugh, stay alive and out of the nut house so I can
look after my husband as long as possible remembering dementia is an
awful thing.
