just for today

Becca is making lemon cupcakes. I had two reasonably satisfying visits with Jeff at Sunrise. The Daily Show is on in 12 minutes. So, based on an in-the-moment assessment, things are ok. At least in the moment.

Out of the moment, who knows? It is probably good for everyone, whatever her life situation, to just-be as much as possible, and not tap into the static of the surrounding craziness on your existential timeline. But Alzheimer’s likes to bring you that lesson in technicolor, so you might as well learn it. The sooner the better.

Check with me tomorrow and I’ll probably have forgotten it.
