Happy thanks giving

Happy thanksgiving to all....Today to me means getting love ones and friends togeather to give thanks to all we have, not so much material things in life, but love of family and friends, health, also being able to eat meals, sleep in a warm bed, having money to live..... and warm jackets, and many small things we tend to take for granted.....there are so many without in this world, who are hungry, lonesome, sleep in the cold, and are lost, god bless them....Im a reborn christain, and wow what that means....i always was a christian... but now i get it..... i have really learned the meaning of joy of the spirit for god has givin me that... for this time I gave up my ego and will to god.....I cant exsplain the transformation... he has made a differece in my life......gold. diamonds material things are not important to me..... its loving myself and other people......and helping and giving to others. Thats why i want to spend some time getting food for the food banks, we are in tough times right now with our economy......many people are losing there jobs....so now i ask you to think about it, even if you donate 1 can of food, it all adds up.......and it feels so good to give to the  ones that need our help. and less infortunate.....even people with pets go to food banks and need pet food.... there animals are hungry to. even walking down the street or in a grocery store give other a smile.... it will feel good to you.....I dont believe in giving to alot of charieties, for the money pays the adminastrators well......hmmmm! if your going to donate give to salvation army,  they are there for the people...... and the donations of goods and money goes 100% to the people.or to a local food bank.lets all stop and think this thanksgiving about other people, and the less infortanent....there are reasons why people are homeless or that way......may you all have a blessed thankful thanksgiving.... hugs Barbie thankful for everything every day.......

Sarah and husband shawn stoppedby so nice to see them, sarah called my doctors office again....she said my dr will be in tommorrow and will call her..so great....im happy to get some nemenda. wrapped 2 present todey...have to do it slowly and just a few at a time...when you have alz you have to change the way you do things...alot of people ask me why are you so happy about your alz,?well i tell them im not happy about it....but i do believe happy positive thinking makes a differecnce,Ive always been a happy person,now im a happy person with alzheimers...i hope my happyness and cheerfulness never goes away....i have learned with alzheimers you can change. such as anger and rages...i hope i never get those. that is a real concern for me for i love people and i dont want to be angry, and it would be so sad for me if i treated people mean, so i pray to god keep me cheerfuul...i do cry at times....but not intentionally. it just happens when im not able to focus and when i get frustrted with a situation.... i asked my dr why i cry so easy?...he said it my brain coping skill .so if you see me cry its allright... for deep inside im happy.im hoping the new pill nemenda will help me with that...another thing that alzheimers does to a person, you forget short term things so fast....i doubt myself all the time, like did i vacumn? have i talked to my children todey? dave will come home every night and ask who did ya talk to....i think about it....the he says i  always say no one, so see  ..... he says barb i dont think your remebering....so i just agree with him...hehe...
hmmm no wonder my days are kinda lonesome i dont remeber who called.... oh well i press on...hehe dave has been helping me alot, he does the dishes for me...and other things cant remember them.another symtom of alz is i have no concept of time....and my months get so mixed up..i sure worry about missing birthdeys of my love ones....and friends. well just a litlle info in the life of an alz person, i like sharing so i can help others....hugs Barbie

Hello nice out today no rain, so i got dressed and ready and walked up to a medical supply place that just opened up by my house, 4 blk away sister arlene told me about it, thought i would check out the walkers, i was anxious to try one out, well walked in wow all different colors and sizes new and used, well as i stood there  trying the one out, i  felt kinda sad for im thinking oh my god a walker hmmmmmm, i tried one out a fancy one hehe but i felt so sadden thinking i need one of these, i couldnt handle it, i fely my pride and ego get in the way it was horrible.... and i started to cry... the sales lady said are you allright i told her i know someday i need a walker but i cant handle getting one, she said alot of people feel that way,she said it is pride, then she said  try this pronged cane maybe that would be a start for you, so i did... well i still had pride and ego, i just wanted to leave that place and come home,she said what is the problem with you stumbling or falling i told her my leg has some weekness, so then i tried walking with the cane, hmmm didnt really like it either...i guess when it comes down to reality it can be sooooo hard. well i bought the cane four pronged, left and i starte walking home, i tried it not bad i felt support but i didnt want people to see me use it... so i prayed and cried all the way home...i really feel bad about it for i know my friends mary and BB care for me and dont want me to get hurt, but at this time i need to be real to myself, the humiliation of me using it is so overwhelming, so when my friend marys comes and we walk it will be me and her and my cane.maybe someday i will forget i have an ego... well gotta go hugs Barbie
