Her latest bit of clueless was just this past Saturday, we were talking about my grandmother and how I was feeling kinda 15 again when I sent her those emails the previous week, and she asked what happened when I was 15. I said that was when my grandma died. (which has come up many times before.) BUT she has remembered far, far, far more than she has ever forgotten (even things I have forgotten telling her!) so I gave her a pass on this one and didn't mention it. I started to get upset about it, but that was when I remembered just how much she does remember and I let it go.

Ya know, thats also an opening for you to have a new insight in. That happens with me and my t sometimes. He knows perfectly well what happened at x time. But there have been new insights and experiences since the last time we reached this particular spot on the everlasting onion, so i see it more as a prod to jump to a new place, rather than settle in the old place. "Gwammy died AND I ...."
Its not a memory test for them. Its a mental gymnastics course for us. Or one of those dog training hoops and loops. And then they pull a new turn for us to react to. Its their job to surprise a new reaction out of us.
5 cents please!
