I've written in the past of the progression of my DLB and my constant surprise as the the changes occur. Another such occurrence happened over the past couple of days and I realized I was slightly unsettled by it.
A few days ago I was in our master bath and saw something behind the trash can. I bent over and looked closer and was surprised to see a mouse trap. We've never had mice and my wife never mentioned seeing any. I made a mental note to ask her about it. Of course I forgot before I left the room. I saw it again several more times with the same result each time.
Finally, last night, sitting in the family room, it hit me that I was going to ask about the mouse trap. I did and received a quizzical look. I explained and she went to look. Turns out the mouse trap was a tag off some clothing. I couldn't believe my eyes were misinforming me this badly so I had to see for myself. When I went in and picked the item up, yep, it was a tag! It's amazing the things an unhealthy mind can make you believe. Even something so simple as this can be unsettling because I know it is almost definitely leading to far worse.
