Back from the appointment.

I wasn't surprised by much and know that the staff are in his corner, working to keep him as independent as possible while respecting his dignity.

We have a long, windy road ahead.

Alzheimer's and other forms of dementia are brutal.

I've experienced the pain of losing someone to cancer (miss you, Mom!), but navigating Dad's Alzheimer's is a different kind of heartbreak - a slow erasure of the person you know and love.

Today we talk about new levels of care for him.

Sometimes you have to step away.

Today, my son and I were on a field trip.

We took less drowsy Dramamine and felt off.

So we left before the boat ride.

And I am okay with it.

Still tired, too.

Need energy for a nighttime event I have to drive 45 minutes to cover.

A group of performers in black outfits passionately singing on stage with hands raised, set against a purple backdrop.

Quiet before the hustle.

I am SO looking forward to capturing the energy at Aca-Fest tonight.

This is a favorite photo of The Voices (our acapella group) performing at it last year.

My memory card has 70GB open. Let's see how many photos I need to snap to get the good ones.

But will there be a second post now that so many of us are flocking to BlueSky?

And by covering the event (feeder for Miss Mississippi competition), I mean I am doing an article about it. Something else that ties into the particular character.

We have a Gilmore Girls night coming up at our local coffee shop.

In a homeschool Mom group, we had a "Which Gilmore Girl are you?" quiz.

Based on this photo of what I was doing while waiting for the competition I was covering to begin, can you guess who I am most like?

Let's see if joining Bluesky will be a new dawn of something great.
