Quiet time

This week was quiet after monday.On saturday it was homecoming for the high school in town. I went to the parade in the morning. Our small town did have a good parade. The kids had enough candy and beads thrown from the floats. I'm not sure which one threw the pennies. It was either bank or credit union. There was some decorations in town with toilet paper.
That is a fun thing the kids do.
I didn't get ride to church today . In the afternoon I watched a historical football game. Brett Farve became the first one to throw for 422 touchdowns.
Hope you all have a blessed week.

Weekend Plus

The weekend was great. I got a ride to church. The Packers won the football game. Later in the afternoon I received company.It was a son,grandson and my little greatgranddaughter. When they were last here I said I could take care of her at night. Well Sunday night my son told me this was the night.We put the play pen in the front room and padded it for her sleeping place. I was up with her for about and hour off and on starting at 2am. Feeding changing and rocking. What a great time. I enjoyed it so much. Today we went up so I could do the wash. The guys took off and I had the baby and did my wash. Then I did a little shopping at a trift store. Then it was WalMart for food. Then we stopped for lunch. I was busy and now I'm tired. The baby was 2 months on sunday.
Such a Joy and blessing.

Lunch

Friday I was taken to a large resort outside of town. The Four Seasons is beautiful and has more than one eating place.
They have golf course and we sat on a glassed in porch . We sat at a white wickerglass topped table on white wickerpadded chairs and watched people play golf. I ate White Chili for the first time. YUM I ordered soup and salad. The three of us
(my neighbor also had one more friend with us) had such a great time. People came and went but we were still there talking enjoying a great afternoon. What a blessing.

Panama

Last night I watched a movie I had seen advertized earlier in the day. It was about a not soo honest spy and the Panama Canal. Having lived there 50 years plus ago I wanted to see if I could see anything I could recognize, I didn't see much but it was interesting and it had some plot. They did mention a hotel -the only big one when I was down there El Panama.
Saw street vendors which I remember dealing with down there. A walk down memory lane for a few hours.

Lunch

I had a great lunch. We had good conversation,good food and just a great time. My boss said that the last time she was in Green Bay was when I went with her. She asked how I felt about instead of lunch next month we took trip to Green Bay.
Idid not take long to agree.
Tomorrow my neighbor is taking me out for lunch. Life isn't bad when people want to take you out for lunch. What do they know about me that they want to take me out to eat?
Have a great week end.

none

A new week. Last week my flowers were froze out. This week it will get back into the mid to upper 70s. The trees are turning colors. Such a beautiful time of the year. Tomorrow my ex boss is coming down and we are going out for lunch.
I usually went up to Michigan for lunch but now with no car she is coming down to my town. She hasn't seen my face so I am happy it isn't as bad as it was. Hope every one has a great week. Hugs

4 Gen. Day

My son came up so I could get to do laundry and shopping. The added benifet was he brought up my 7wk. old greatgrandbaby. She is so adorable and a bit overloved(spoiled) But how can you overlove? My son helped with the wash-putting clothes in the washer then in the dryer even folded some of the clothes. I can't say I did too much of it. I played with Alexis.
The down side was the teasing I got from my son and from my grandson. They said maybe i should use wheel chair or electric cart at Walmart. But my grandson said no to the electric cart because I would probably run into people or things. I did walk and not fall!!!! My son could not believe my face. Oh well I just stated that if I was going to do something I had to do a good job of it. (I wish I hadn't) I"m not sure when my face will get back to normal.
"What did you do?" is the way I am greeted now.
I am blessed!

Glasses

Well I received a call from a neighbor this morning saying they were going to run some errands and wanted to know if I wanted to go up and get my glasses fixed. I got ready and I now have my glasses. I had to buy a new frame but the lenses were okey so that part of the problem is solved. Of course with the smaller frames my eye is easier to see and it isn't a pretty sight.

I'm Back

I am in a place where I am saying what next? But today a wonderful friend said she keeps praying and checking to see me blog and ready to face the world. I had to LOL. I am sitting in my chair with my left eye black and almost swollen shut. A knot on my head. My leg is scratched and I now have three purple toes. I am wearing a pair of glasses that are so old style-large. And I am thanking God for protecting this old lady. I took a fall yesterday and it was a hard one. But when things go bad and you can't change them you have to laugh and get on with life. God is good to me and I am not in control of everything in my life. So enough down time. Mimi bless you for not giving up on me.
