Spent my day today on the couch with plenty to drink, the TV remote, a book to read and a supply of Kleenex.
The head cold bug seems to have bitten me. Since I had a day with no plans made it was the perfect opportunity to rest and recover.
Hopefully no one else will be sick and I will be over the worst of it by tomorrow morning.

I have learned something about myself these last few days. I'm not as much of a "go with the flow" as I assumed I was or as I used to be.
Most of my days I wake up and wonder what will come my way that day because my days are filled with the schedules of everyone in my life and seldom under my control.
However, I did have some sort of schedule going that I had begun to get used to.

But now it's gotten mixed and confused. Not by my choice or my control of course. Not by any ones choice or control.

My son was laid off from his job. Not only that but he is without a vehicle at this moment. Not a good combination.
So he and my daughter-in-law have to work it out day by day who will need their van that day. It all depends on if she needs to drive somewhere while on her lunch break, if he has places lined up to apply for work, or what might be going on with the kids.

So all of this makes my days confused and out of control and I"m a little grumpy. I don't know day by day if I will have the boys or not. If I do have them I don't know if it will be all day, partial day, or if I will need to pick them up or drop them off!
It's not their fault. It's nobodies fault. It was not planned and not wanted. But it is what it is so we all need to go with the flow.

So I'm praying for miracles. Praying for guidance, strength ,patience and blessings for all of us. Not just me but for all of us, especially my son.

Kids, Hubby and Dog

I haven't been on here much lately. I've been busy.
One thing that keeps me busy is my crazy hyper dog.
Here you see the before and after photos. His hair grows and becomes unruly covering his eyes. After taking him to the groomers he is now bright eyed and happy.







Once a week I take my grandson to a preschool class and once a week to a music class. It is a joy to watch him enjoy himself. Last week his preschool had a field trip to a gymnastics class. He loved it! He also had a homework assignment for his music class to make his own instruments from misc. items. He also loved that!
My hubby is anxiously waiting for baseball season to start. He will begin his venture as an usher again for the Padres. A job he is truly enjoying. He also will begin playing his Strat-o-matic baseball games again. Which is one of his loved hobbies. So daily I hear all about the plans and excitement that has been building up. He's like a little kid waiting for Santa to arrive.

It's in the air......or on the doorknobs! Grand kids are all getting sick with sore throats, stuffy noses, and feeling yucky and us adults are all trying to avoid it while taking care of the kids!
