Back In the Saddle Again!

 

      Wow, it has been sometime since "I jotted a line or 2".  I'd have to use the excuse that I have been busy.  I know, I know - everyone uses that excuse and very loosely at times.  Perhaps mine is weak also because I do find the time to jump on Facebook and answer emails.  Oh well anyway - I have been busy getting life in order to bring Jim home. 

 

     So now I have him back at the ranch and we're happy to spend time together in our own place.  I know this road isn't an easy one and can be a long one but I'm prepared to give it my all and pave it together (or alone, which is where I think I am sometimes).   Jim has his good days and bad ones.  He has been doing well, walking with his walker to and from the bathroom, dinner table and bedroom.  He's been eating well and is getting along well with his companion/aide who stays with him while I am at work. 

 

     Hopefully this will continue to work.  I'm hoping life lets us be together for a long while before the man I have known for the past 24 years is turned into a mere fragment of who he was.  For now he still knows me, most of the time, and he laughs when I tell him stories of days gone by. 

 

     I'm ready to ride long and hard to make this all work.  Prayers and thoughts are greatly appreciated.
