Happiness
Ageless Entertainment
My grandchildren were on school break this week and I wanted to get together with them for some fun. The big question was, where can you bring a 6-year old girl, a 14-year old boy, their mom, me, and an 89-year old woman in a wheelchair? To the sporting goods store – of course! I […]
Smiling Irish Eyes
I like to take the opportunity to celebrate whenever possible. So my mom and I started off St. Patrick’s Day by wearing our green sweaters. I had stored away some Irish soda bread made into french toast in the freezer. I got that out and warmed it up to go with our mushroom and greens […]
Productive Shopping
I usually dread going shopping on Saturday as there is typically a lot of people and supplies are low – especially now. However, today I went to 3 different places and had a good experience at each of them. I found what I needed right away at the first one and was in and out. […]
Lunch Bunch
I took my mom to lunch with her friends today. The 4 ladies had not all been together for a year. They all met through the local music teacher’s association when they started their lunch bunch years ago. There were about a dozen ladies in the group at that time and their husbands started joining […]
Girl Time
Thankfully we have had a couple days of beautiful weather. Yesterday we brought a little birthday cake to my mom’s friend who has been sick and not able to come over. We sang Happy Birthday from the front steps. Then we decided we should take a walk somewhere. We remembered that my son and family […]
Sam’s Club Outing
Since this crazy below zero cold snap, my mom and I have been stuck in the house alone for 4 days. Even though it was still below freezing today, we decided we needed to get out. I just recently joined Sam’s Club and had been wanting to do some product and price comparisons, so that’s […]
Taking It Easy
I had a very hard time getting up this morning, even though I went to bed on time and think I slept ok. It was below freezing outside all day long, so we didn’t have anywhere to go and that was fine with me. I barely got dressed and did a little exercising with my […]
Snow Glitter
This morning it was 4 degrees outside when I got up and opened the blinds. It had snowed just a little overnight. When I looked just right in the sunlight, I could see shimmering speckles in the air. It was soothing and lovely, so I just watched for a while. When my mom got up […]
Olympic Stories
My mom has been wanting to visit the new US Olympic Paralympic Museum. I had read about it and knew it was outfitted with top of the line interactive technology. We thought it would be great to bring the family. The grandkids were off school and my sons were off work, so we planned the […]
Plays Well With Others
Today my mom’s friend came over as usual to visit and play the pianos. When my dad and I were looking at the t-shirt catalog, one of the first ones that struck him was one that I purchased for both my mom and her friend. My mom opened hers on Christmas. When her friend opened […]
