Smurfs Log: Day (unknown)Talking about recent events is very helpful for me. Likes and boosts have really meant a lot to me in recent hours, days, and weeks… ❤️ Today, for example, my dear mother had one of those days. She snuck out of the house an hour after I arrived while I used the restroom this morning...Mental note to myself: Be prepared. Poop at home before rushing over there… 💩 <a href="/tags/alzheimers/" rel="tag">#Alzheimers</a> <a href="/tags/caregiving/" rel="tag">#Caregiving</a> <a href="/tags/dementia/" rel="tag">#Dementia</a>

An elderly person with short white hair is sitting in a chair, seen through a window. She is wearing glasses, a white shirt, and a light blue apron. They are leaning forward, working on a crossword puzzle.

A wine glass is on a wooden surface in front of her, and a white lantern with star cutouts is next to it. Potted plants and other objects are visible, both inside the room and reflected in the window. The background outside the window shows residential buildings and trees under a colorful sky.

When we love someone, we may want to offer them unlimited, unending care and support. But sometimes, both we and they must accept that our support has to be from afar.<a href="/tags/alzheimers/" rel="tag">#Alzheimers</a> <a href="/tags/dementia/" rel="tag">#dementia</a> <a href="/tags/mentalhealth/" rel="tag">#mentalhealth</a> <a href="/tags/quote/" rel="tag">#quote</a>

I've got a nerd <a href="/tags/askfedi/" rel="tag">#AskFedi</a> question, expectations are high since we are on the Fediverse 😘Situation: I’ve tagged mothers keys with bluetooth trackers. I hate this stuff, but she’s suffering from dementia and I also need some sleep. I'm using android trackers, e.g. the Google Find Hub. I hate this too. <a href="/tags/caregiving/" rel="tag">#Caregiving</a> <a href="/tags/alzheimers/" rel="tag">#Alzheimers</a> <a href="/tags/dementia/" rel="tag">#Dementia</a>Question: How can I improve the bloody “home tracking abilities” of these #%#@! trackers on Google Find network? <a href="/tags/bluetooth/" rel="tag">#Bluetooth</a> <a href="/tags/android/" rel="tag">#Android</a> <a href="/tags/raspberrypi/" rel="tag">#RaspberryPi</a> <a href="/tags/fedihelp/" rel="tag">#FediHelp</a>🧵1/2

Happy Place* My mother went for a walkabout again this morning. I found her at one of her 'happy places'…<a href="/tags/alzheimers/" rel="tag">#Alzheimers</a> <a href="/tags/caregiving/" rel="tag">#Caregiving</a> <a href="/tags/dementia/" rel="tag">#Dementia</a> <a href="/tags/photography/" rel="tag">#Photography</a>

A view from behind of people sitting on wooden pews in a church. The focus is on a person with white hair wearing a light-colored jacket in the middle row. To their left, another person wears a bright yellow-green coat. In the background, there is an altar with a statue, stained-glass windows, and brick walls with arched doorways.

A scattered collection of old, physical photographs from a family's photo album, depicting scenes from different periods of life, particularly childhood.

The overall impression is one of nostalgia and family memories, captured in a time before digital photography was common. The photos are arranged in a casual, overlapping pile, suggesting someone has just gone through them.

Smurfs Log: The latest entry to the list of famous female illusionists and magicians has been added...* I am so proud of my mom. It only took her 24 days to find her way out without anybody noticing 😇 Luckily her former neighbor was on her way to visit mom and stumbled on her two blocks of her former house ❤️ <a href="/tags/alzheimers/" rel="tag">#Alzheimers</a> <a href="/tags/caregiving/" rel="tag">#Caregiving</a> <a href="/tags/dementia/" rel="tag">#Dementia</a> <a href="/tags/opsec/" rel="tag">#Opsec</a> <a href="/tags/cyberplace/" rel="tag">#CyberPlace</a> <a href="/tags/smurf/" rel="tag">#Smurf</a> <a href="/tags/whitehat/" rel="tag">#WhiteHat</a>

Smurfs Log: Me and my Dad* I've been posting a lot about Mom recently. My dad passed away 33 years ago. He was the one who used to take the pictures around the house. While sorting my mom's house, I found this old picture of me and my dad 🥰 One of the "Things Left in My Mom's House..."<a href="/tags/alzheimers/" rel="tag">#Alzheimers</a> <a href="/tags/caregiving/" rel="tag">#Caregiving</a> <a href="/tags/dementia/" rel="tag">#Dementia</a> <a href="/tags/photography/" rel="tag">#Photography</a>

A vintage photograph featuring a toddler holding hands with his father. The toddler is very happy, smiling broadly and looking directly at the camera.

He is wearing an open plaid shirt with some red, blue and white tones over a white undershirt.

He is also wearing a pair of oversized, light-colored trousers which are about to fall on the ground.
