Grandma's Journal

wow it is hard to beleive that it has been 14 days since I have sat down and wrote in this journal...I was being so good, and I am sure your all wondering what happen to me...

Well things have been busy, and I have not slowed down...

Seems like we have had company for 2 solid weeks (Amy and Bryan were sharing their house with 7 other people) for a week...they left and then a friend of Amy's came 2 days later....her friend has been staying here with us as we have an extra bedroom...

so this past week we have been helping Julie put together is wedding, and making wedding favors...going to Hogs and Dogs, and then to the old car hot rod parade in Richland...got my brother to the parade and it was a real family deal...we had fun and took photos...

Went to my sisters house last night and took Julie we shared a bottle of wine.

made gift treat boxes today, and went out for pizza...

Mom is doing good...she is eating and sleeping through the night now...she has slowed down on her wondering around the house at night...

Neil is on his 2nd week of his treatments for his knee...last week he said that it hurt when they put the medicine in. Tuesday will be his 3rd treatment, and his last...so we are hoping he gets atleast 9 months out of this treatment before he has to have more...

I have been healthy and stayinb out of trouble...I am NO longer doing pre-school and have no intentions on going back to doing it... so I have no job and NO income...I would love to find a desk job.

Grandma's Journal My Journal I became a Grandma at the age of 49 years old. Well I was actually only 17 days from being 50. My baby girl gave me gave me my first grandchild. He was a beautiful bouncy boy. Then 2 years later she surprised me on my birthday at 5am by waking me up and telling me "Happy Birthday Mom!" Time to get up we are going to the hospital and having a baby today! I told her NO that's tomorrow. It took a little bit for her to get it through my groggy head that she was going to be giving me a birthday present! and she totally did. She gave me a dark hair beautiful little grand daughter. Now I can enjoy spoiling 2. I have decided that the best thing in the world is being a Grandma! There is nothing that come close to that! I have been married for 30 years to a man that lives for his family. He only wants the best for all of us and spoils us all! He is a good man that works hard for his dollar. We have a pretty good marriage to say the least. Well it must be if we can put up with each others faults this long! My mom who has Alzehimers lives with us and has been for almost 3 years now. She is in the finally stages of the disease and still hangs in there. She loves to grab the broom and sweep. She does this everyday, and several times a day. I keeps her busy. She will even sweep the counch or the kitchen table if you let her. My oldest daughter is going to be 34 years old this year and hasn't lived at home in 16 years. I spend as must time as I can with her. But it is never enough. She plans on coming home to live and take care of us in 7 years. I cant wait! It's my dream to have her home. She is a dear friend to me and we have a great relationship. she always tells me that I am her best friend.

A friend of my oldest daughter made it for me, and she did a beautiful job. I will treasure it always.		2009-06-28 11:19 PM did anyone miss me? wow it is hard to beleive that it has been 14 days since I have sat down and wrote in this journal...I was being so good, and I am sure your all wondering what happen to me...
