| No Ring-tones in 1970 |

While I was in my home office yesterday, I heard the sound of the back door slamming shut. This is a particularly strange noise, since Dad uses the side door to let the dogs in and out. So when I got up to investigate, I was disturbed to see Dad's walker at the back door and when I looked out, I could not immediately see him. When I called out his name, he answered that he was looking for the "barking dog". Knowing that our dogs were both at my feet, I asked him to come back in and we would try to find the dog later. As I pondered the next step of Dad's disease including hallucinations and how I was going to deal with that, I heard my cell phone ring. It was my friend Peggy, whose ring-tone is a dog barking (she loves dogs). "Thank goodness it was not a hallucination" I thought. I decided not to tell Dad what it really was, since it would take me an hour to explain what a ring-tone even is! I'd rather he just forget the whole incindent. And of course, he did. |
