Simple Pleasures

Today as I was driving across town, I noticed I was happy and grinning from ear to ear. Mindless thinking you ask...NOPE. I was thinking about my sweet grand babies. A song that brings one of them to life no matter what she is doing or where she is...bring on the Backyardigans. A four and a half year old grand daughter that thinks her Grammy has a "magic car". A little boy that idolizes Mickey Mouse and is a fan of the Mickey Mouse club. Another one that roars every time anything dinosaur is said or seen. Many wonderful and beautiful thoughts. I would like to take this time to thank my beautiful daughters that have made wonderful mothers and given me such GREAT GRAND BABIES!

Problem Child

putting off the inevitable.....that is what I seem to want to do lately. I was talking to a friend and she said we should find us a job where we could get paid to sit and get paid well. I think that will be my next job. I'm blogging tonight to avoid going into the sewing room to work.
...and what is with not spending money at Christmas, to be more careful and not spend...... it's not my nature....I'm a problem child? Every time I go into a store I drop a hundred dollars, oops! The plan was to stay home and not spend, I'm failing miserably. My kids and grand kids should like that. OOOOOO!

Mirror mirror on the wall...

I don't have a mirror yet but my new bathroom is looking pretty spiffy. I always had plenty of mirrors with four daughters that was a necessity (especially the vain ones, you know who you are). As I age, I find the mirrors especially the magnifiers are not my friend. Even though, it will be nice to have one in the bathroom. Now .....what is the next project? After this season of sewing I think I'll build a playground with my old deck.....Yes, me. I've got tons of ideas and want to build something. That way the house won't get torn up. Positives on both counts, even though my kids are all gone.
