Grandma's Journal

I hope today brought all my friends and loved one's that One Golden Easter Egg. Happy Birthday Jesus!

I watched Carson hunt of Easter Eggs in his front yard and our's. The Easter Bunny brought lots of egg's filled with candy, and a easter basket full of fun toys and clothes for both of the Grand kids. The Easter Bunny even brought me a box of Whitman sugar free candies. I was so excited to get those! Amy and the kids got me a beautiful butterfly wind chime! Neil gave me a motorized wind sock. I can't wait to get them up and watch and listen to them.

We had dinner over at Amy's house. She baked a ham, yummy carrots and a fresh home made pinapple upside down cake. Donna and I topped the meal off with black olives, shrimp salad, rolls and a bottle of wine.

We put on our away hockey game and we finally shut it off when we were down 3 goarls. It looks like our hockey team is done for the season. Now what are we going to do for fun?

After that we played a game of bowling on the WEEE(I am sure everyone knows what that is). I lost! But I did manage to break 100 pts.

So now that my day is done, I am going to head downstairs and put the clothes in the dryer, and maybe go to bed early. I am tired and I feel like I could use a hot bath, and a nice tall glass of ice Crystal lite.

Happy Easter and may tomorrow bring us all a new look on life!

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.		2009-04-12 7:28 PM Happy Easter I hope today brought all my friends and loved one's that One Golden Easter Egg. Happy Birthday Jesus!
