Grandma's Journal

Today I was all alone in the G.S. shop. Everything went fine, and I had a blast putting out merchandise and learning the cash register all by myself! I wasn't pressured and I could take my time and not worry about someone looking over my shoulder.

I think I am finally getting the hang of answering the phone the way they want me too!

This sure is a learning process for me, but I am having a fun time learning new things. Wasn't able to do any back stock today, as I was just too busy running the office all by myself!

I am in the office tomorrow and Saturday all by myself also. So won't get much done then either.

Mom is adjusting to me being gone for a few hours....she has breakfast, and lunch with me, then after I leave she eats with Neil, then I come home and then her and I have dinner together. she is eating lots and not by herself so she doesn't really have time to miss me.

Well Neil is at work, and dinner and dishes are done, and I am ready for some relaxation and a hot shower. 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.		2009-09-17 6:41 PM 2nd Day all alone Today I was all alone in the G.S. shop.
