Sorry for the delay in blog posts... has been rather busy on this side, what with completing a briding course and all. Thought I had better get this posted before I start the next course tomorrow!
Dad's birthday was a few weeks back... and will wonders never cease... he remembered how old he is! The care home was doing a bus tour to Manly and North Head that day, so I went along with dad for the view. They stopped for morning tea at North Head... and this was our view. South Head directly in front, and Sydney city off to the right. Rose Bay somewhere in between. Pretty fancy view for a birthday!
Dad is holding his own.... hasn't lost his sense of humor, that's for sure. Has had me bent over in stitches a few times. Some times you visit and he's up, then other times he's down. Aren't we all. The down days can be hard to take... though I had the thought yesterday that I am much more used to dad this way than I used to be. Which does make it easier when dealing with him, but doesn't make it any less sad. Oh well, that's life with dad, I guess.
It's late here and I had better sign off... will try not to make it so long between visits here!
