A Caregiver?
I remember a few years ago, shortly after Curt was diagnosed with Alzheimer’s going to an online support group for those who know someone with Alzheimer’s. As I signed up I had to list if I was patient with Alzheimer’s or a caregiver. I remember thinking, what?!? I was neither, I was Curt’s wife, he …
Life as we know it
I thought I would show you some pics that will give you a glimpse of life as we know it these days! Tyler had a great set of games in Richmond, Va. It was well over 100 degrees, but we learned how to survive in the heat! I of course was wondering how am I …
Calm before Spring
I can see it coming. Pictures like this tell me it’s near. I see it on the horizon of our life. Yep spring will be here before we know it. I LOVE spring! I love flowers, and truly relish seeing them begin to rise from the earth and bloom into something so beautiful. It’s one …
Busy start to the new year…….
Basketball games, lacrosse games and practices, Eagles football game……..yes it’s been a busy start to the new year for us! And in some ways the busy stuff is a mixed blessing, the kids and I are so caught up in the day to day chaos, that we don’t have time to focus on the perils …
Friday Fave Five
It has been FOREVER since I have done a Friday Fave Five………and as I sip a little coffee on my deck this morning, I was thinking today would be a great day to do it! Although I must say I really can not confine the Fave Five to just one week. So please allow me …
HOME!!!!
My alarm on my phone went off loudly playing some catchy ringtone at 6:30 am yesterday. I hit the snooze button…..weary and tired, not wanting to get up. But then I remembered………..we are going HOME today!!!! Suddenly, I was inspired, turned off the snooze, made a beeline for the coffee, then woke up the rest …
Lessons learned on the Road…..
So as you know we have been on the road a great deal this summer for Tyler’s baseball team. And first of all I am VERY thankful for this picture! Yep that is my boy with his driver’s license! With all the driving we are doing this summer, it’s so nice to have another “official …
Summer Finally and We’re Off on our baseball adventures!
Summer Break, it’s finally here! It is much needed and anticipated! My last day of school was somewhat emotional……I cried a bit thinking of what a crazy, exhausting school year it’s been. From finding out on Oct 1st of Curt’s diagnosis, to the decision for him to stop working, to being at school every day …
I know it’s been forever……..
Yes it’s been over a month since I posted on this blog of mine……. And why do you think I have not posted……………… I have just been way too busy this month. My mind is on overload and I just couldn’t possibly add any more info in. I saw a t-shirt the other day …
I don’t know……….
I thought to myself today that I should update my blog since it’s been awhile…………… our days have been filled with these 2 sports. But aside from being consumed with sports, I have just been feeling pretty “I don’t knowish.“ I know you are probably thinking wow, Sandy is so profound and expresses herself so …
The ABC’s of our life……
A = Alzheimer’s, an unexpected diagnosis of Early Onset Alz for my 47 year old husband. B = Baseball dominates our life these days! Tyler is playing varsity baseball for our local high school. It’s been so fun and exciting to watch him play. He’s off to a great start so far this season, he …

This was one of my Twitter posts this week. Can I just tell you how great that beef stew tasted! For those of you who are not enduring a very cold spring, then you may not be able to fully understand the depth of this bone freezing cold that has penetrated this area! It may …
