Grandma's Journal

Busy as a bee here, got up made coffee, talked with Amy, watched her 3 kids and my 3 while she went to the doctor. All is fine with her after her giving birth to Desi.

After I fed the kids lunch, took me extra long time to cook it as Desi was being fussy and Carson was being a terrible 2 year old pill! BOY has the terrible two's hit him hard. He even manage to push G-amma to the point of giving him 3 spankings. I got Desi to sleep, laid her on the couch and went to make lunch, I turned around and there is Carson standing on my couch jumping up and down over Desi and waking her up. He sure knew that I was upset over that. "No spanking G-amma No spanking". Needless to say that is the second time I have ever spanked him! Don't remember what he did the first time to deserve it but Amy made me follow thru with my threat and it hurt me more then it hurt him, and Amy said to me "You call that a spanking, Mom?" yeap sure do!

Then it was off to Costco's for our weekly run, where we met up with my sister Donna. Between the 3 of us, we spent almost $450.00.

Then home to put away the food items and finish up dinner. I had managed to put in a Pork Roast with potatoes and carrots in the Slow Cooker before I left for Costco's. So all's I had to do was put a salad together and rolls in the oven and dinner was on the table.

So now my dishes are done and the dishwasher is running, floor is swept, and table is cleaned off, and I am now thinking about heading to bed to watch a movie with my hubby.

Tomorrow brings Tuesday and hopefully nice weathr as I need to get out in the back yard and do some spring cleaning on the yard to get it ready for the sprinklers to be turned on. Night all!

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.		2009-03-30 7:02 PM woe it's Monday Busy as a bee here, got up made coffee, talked with Amy, watched her 3 kids and my 3 while she went to the doctor.
