weather

for most of the summer we were under a drought. it didn't rain for almost 2 months. when i was up in door county the grass was not brown but almost white. they even had a burning ban which i can never recall having. i had never seen wisconsin this dry. now it has been raining for almost a week. some parts of the western state have even become declared a state of emergency due to all the flooding. this morning our gutters were clogged and as bob was attempting to clear them, the ladder slipped on the wet grass and bob was left hanging from the gutters like in "meet the fockers." now it seems funny and we laughed about it but at the time it was kinda scary.

how things can flip and turn in no time at all. such is the case with caring for someone with AD. things can be going a certain way for awhile and then overnight or even during the day things can change and do a 180 turnaround. usually it is not for the better but that can also happen, it just usually doesn't last as long.

like the meteorologists, the health care profession can try to predict what will happen and why. but we also know that with meteorologists where else can you be wrong 50% of the time and still keep your job. such is the case with AD. just when you think you know what may be happening, when you can predict what your days and nights will be like, it changes as well.
