Big Test Today

MADISON, ALABAMA

8/28/25

Today was my first big official test to see if I have a working brain and what level it is working at or something like that. We went through several hard questions like what day of the week is it. The OFM naturally replied he did not know since the day of the week made no difference in his lifestyle so he ignored them. That is likely not the answer they wanted to hear. But if you don't want or need to know why bother  about  it I wondered. Several other questions did not really seem to apply to full time RV style folks. Maybe that is why full timers are so special eh!

The earlier therapy session was even more questionable. The therapist had us tossing the equivalent of a nice beach ball back and forth between us. I finally convinced him that was too easy and we should do it with our eyes closed when receiving the ball. He did not think that was possible but I talked him into doing it. So I closed my eyes and removed my glasses and he tossed the ball to me and I caught it and threw it back to him with my eyes still closed. It hit him in the chest and he missed it. Before he quit I had him catching the ball with his eyes closed but I never got him to toss it back with closed eyes. We used to do that all the time down on Galveston Beach in Texas. Hmm I wonder if the next session will as much fun?

That is enough about my brain and supposed brain sickness called dementia that is developing in my head  Have fun and good night.

  1. So very appreciative of you explaining where you are and what is happening. Knowledge is always good and may help so many others some day, including me. Thank you!

  2. Like you said, lots of the daily information most people deem necessary, is what most RVers never give a second thought to. What we pay attention to is what is in our Fride/Freezer, Pantry, our Hunger, the Weather and Road Conditions. Clocks and Calendars are not a high priority in our Lifestyle. You should tell your therapist that information, even if you have to print this out, so they know you are not just making that up.
    Stay Safe and Enjoy having tooooo much fun.

    It's about time.

  3. I told the therapist and she explained how I did not know what I was talking about . I will be glad to get to a real doctor in three weeks. There is an extreme shortage of real doctors of all types this area at this time.
