Me: Today, I had some rather wonderful visits with people who have dementia.
Anthony: What is the point, Jules? They have all lost their marbles.
Me: So did you!
Anthony: Rubbish!
Me: Okay, whatever you say.
Anthony: Why are you crying?
Me: Because I miss your sarcasm so much, Ants.
Anthony: Do you have to hug and kiss them so much, Jules?
Me: Please say you are not jealous, Ants, because that would be ridiculous. Anyway, I only do the hugging/kissing thing casually and tend to just put my arm around a shoulder here and there.
Anthony: That sounds reasonable.
Me: I wish you were still here to advise me like you always did before, about my toomuchness.
Anthony: You have the Ming for that, Jules.
Keep up the therapy.
You are an amazing woman
“Toomuchness”. That is a brilliant term.
