A LAZY WEEKEND ON THE FARM

It's been a lazy weekend on the farm. Yesterday I only had a couple of appointments in the morning and Husband had nothing on his schedule. While spending time together in the morning, Husband mentioned that he would just like to sit and read his book all day. I sensed that he needed agreement and... Sign in to see full entry.

CHANGE IS HARD - EVEN AT 3

Our 3 year old grandson, M, is having a hard time adjusting to his new baby brother. I arrived at our girl's apartment to find her outside walking the new baby while M was having a tantrum on the inside. Apparently, M started screaming, wet his pants and threw himself on the floor. I went inside to... Sign in to see full entry.

WHAT WE FOUND WHEN WE GOT HOME . . .

The Newlyweds stayed at the farm for a few days after we left. Our new Daughter-in-Law cleaned like a mad woman, did all the laundry and left a rather lengthy thank-you note. Son mowed the lawn. Daughter that lives with us burned the cutting board by the sink. A bottle of opened wine in Daughter Who... Sign in to see full entry.

LAST DAY IN SANTA FE

It's our last day in Santa Fe. The crew at Starbucks knows my order - tall, dark roast coffee. This morning I walked down the narrow sidewalks in the cool morning air to the La Fonda restaurant at La Plazuela. The tourists were taking their morning walks. The shops were still closed. When I came out... Sign in to see full entry.

ANOTHER DAY IN SANTA FE

My biggest decision today are shop, get a massage or go on a private horseback tour? You'd think I could handle that! Sign in to see full entry.

OUT OF RANGE IN SANTA FE

Life has been crazy busy as usual so there's been no time for writing until now. I'm sitting in a Starbucks coffee shop with wireless internet taking a moment to update family & friends on our adventures in Santa Fe. * * * The Starbucks in Santa Fe Olde Towne is a little crowded for this time of...

Magic Carpet Ride

Grandson & Granddaughter play together surprisingly well considering their ages(3 & 1). Grandson dragged all the purple cushions off the furniture and laid them in a row on the floor while Granddaughter determinedly crawled around after him. She would lie her head down on one then move on to the... Sign in to see full entry.

AMAZING MORNING

The single mom of one our grandchildren was having another baby this morning. Although she isn't a blood daughter of Husband or I, we don't care. She's one of our girls. We don't even care if the baby's father isn't one of ours and isn't around. It's one of our babies. I had a meeting at the... Sign in to see full entry.

MEMORY LAPSE

Katie and I went to the grocery store yesterday. The cart was loaded to the gills with baby and groceries by the time I left Giant Eagle. Katie sat in the cart while I loaded the groceries in the trunk. No problem. We sang all the way home. When I got home, I forgot how to unload a baby and... Sign in to see full entry.

A 'NORMAL' MORNING?

After last minute rushing around to find everything he forgot, Husband just left for work. Daughter, who is working for the first time in months, is leaving soon too. Granddaughter is still sleeping. Thank God! And soon, I'll be alone to take care of the 10 loads of laundry, trip to the grocery... Sign in to see full entry.
