Good morning. It is going to be a cold and rainy day here....guess we'll find some inside things to do. GG spent an hour outside last night with a dandelion tool, the kind you step on and turn then it picks up the weed when you lift it. She said it was so much fun. I am thinking you all might want to borrow her.

Good morning all. I'm up after being up in the night. Now I've got to wake up and get ready for real. What a help that kid is, Sunny. I hope everyone has a good day.

GG sounds like a winner, Sunny. Yep, you can send her over---and ya never know, we may make cookies also.
Sorry you did not sleep well, Tina. I hope you get to sneak in a nap at some point today.
Some more cleaning today then I will be off to do some grocery shopping.
I too wish everyone a great day!

When is your family coming, Carol?. I got my car in for an oil change and walked to 3 stores while it was being done. I finally found the grad party plates and things at the third store. Teddy's class is having a spaghetti lunch for the three grads and their families. That was delivered to the class when I picked him up early. It was a good day. I tried to nap. Now we have a three day weekend to get ready for that lunch on Tuesday.

My youngest and her DH & 2 sons are in IL as I type. I assume they are staying at her friends house which is about 25-ish miles from my home. I learned that the friend 7 her DH are watching the boys tonight so that Emily & Chris can go out for their Anniversary...Now, I KNOW they are out alone b/c she told me in a PM on facebook. IF they are staying there when they get back form the Dinner out, I am not sure.
Tomorrow they will be spending with Chris's Mom & Stepfather. Then after supper they will come here. I can only assume in time to put the boys to bed....Then they wake, eat breakfast here & then go off to visit My Mom, Chris's grandmother and Rod's Grandmother. Then they will eat lunch & come back here so the boys can nap. They will be heading back to their home around 5:30 my time on Sunday.
Rod is off on Monday for the holiday & then he has a Drs. appt. on Tuesday (check-up)
I will finish my cleaning in the AM & then clean myself up & wait to see the boys...

Tina, congrats on Teddy's graduation. I wonder though if he will miss his classes? I do hope you can find something to help fill in his time Yay for grandkids visiting Junie, I hope you have a lot of fun. I do not know what today holds...it will depend on the weather. I really have lots to do outdoors but it will take a bit of a dry spell to accomplish anything.

Good morning. Teddy is graduating this week but he will continue with the summer session until the end of June. After that his sister will take him out a couple days a week for some respite care. And he will be going out with me more often. He will be going on those shopping trips I take while he is at school. We all have some adjusting to do. I am going to clean a bit today. And do some laundry. That is my plan this early Saturday morning. But first, coffee. I hope everyone has a great day.

I hope that Teddy and you enjoy his graduation, Tina. It sounds as if you have the future all lined out though--good for you.
Sunny I hope that the weather co-operates for you.
I too have some final cleaning to do here..and then some last minute errands to run.
I wish everyone a great day!

WELL.. I have had an afternoon. I was just replacing the clean rugs in the living room & the phone rang---Em & her DH decided to change cell phone carriers..so Rod & I met them at a T-Mobil store. it seems that we all 4 have smart phones and Chris says his bill will still be less than his new "plan" they were being forced into by AT&T.
so Chris, & Rod & I got new phones. Rod & mine is the same & some brand I have never heard of but it has windows 10 & I am used to that.
WE finaly left & Chris's phone was still not ready. he was getting a phone that isjust exactly what he had previously but he wanted all of his contacts, phontos & such transferred. We were there 2 hrs & 15 minutes, I do not know how long they were there. Em felt sorry for us & told us to go ahead & go home.
I hope we have coverage around here with the new carrier...

Good afternoon, I'll take some of that coffee as well.
DD called yesterday at lunch and asked me to watch the baby for awhile, then called again to ask if he could stay the night, then was supposed to come this morning for the two of them and just called and asked me to keep them until supper. She knew I had things to do today. I hope she is enjoying her 'me' time because next time I will refuse her to learn her a lesson.

I had a bear visitor this morning. I got some pictures but cannot get into photobucket to put them there and share them. It was fun!

SIL found out that we have no service with T-Mobil in Staunton ..called & "talked" with them for hours in the end, we gave back our new phones--(no restocking fee) and we got back with AT&T and all is as it was with our old phones---- I have no idea what we will do for supper....

Carol, so did you get a new phone but the same as the old? We have Verizon service and like it.
Sunny, Colt was with me this week so Ginger and Chris could go to a ball tournament in "peace." My mother took care of Shelley one weekend out of her life and Ginger never stayed with her. I think I take care of my grand children a lot. Sometimes I'm ok with it sometimes I'm not.

No, Sheri--it went like this: At first my SIL wanted to change carriers (he/we were with AT&T and they were gouging him he thought) so he thought to try signing up with T-Mobil.
My DD kept her iPhone as she is due to get a new one in October. My SIL: got a new $700.00 phone, but then he uses his a lot for work.
Rod & I went with the cheaper smart phones--an off brand with windows 10.
Well, my SIL found out we had no coverage in Staunton (a town we are in a LOT) and so he wondered about other areas and IF they would have coverage at home in Virginia. As I said he uses his phone for work & my DD has no home phone & 2 small boys. So the service HAD to be especially reliable.
So they got out of the T-Mobil thing & went back to AT&T. Rod & I got back our original phones. with some updates, but nothing drastic....So, now, no smart phone for Carol.
I like AT&T..but it is costing Chris a lot of money for his and my daughter's phone services. Rod & mine is not costly at all.

Good morning !! Glad to hear that you slept well, Tina. I slept 10 hours last night !! I guess short people wear me out. I just emptied the dishwasher. Aside from making some sides for the evening meal, I think I am done working today. We have nothing planned (we already went to the cemeteries last week, as Emily would be home over the weekend) so I guess all we will be doing is cooking out. It is a sunny beautiful day. So at least that is good !! I wish everyone a Wonderful & Safe Memorial Day!!

I am tired too. It has been a day and it;s going to be an eventful week. Sweet dreams all. I have nearly fallen asleep several times sitting right here. But I tend to want to fall over and wake myself up suddenly. But I can get ready to go now.
