Well I am here. Still kicking. So much going on. The life of mine just keeps spinning. :) Still hoping to see all my boys together for something..sometime soon. Just miss that.
Ms. Iris...seems such a short time ago she was born! I took care of her in the hospital and ever since. Soon she will be five. Started Kindergarten yesterday. The night before she informed her Dad that she could not go to school the next day because "she did not want a fat teacher". I laughed so when he told me that. Then; after school the next day, she told him "I love my fat teacher". :) Her teacher has taught kindergarten for like 26 years give or take a year. My son Christopher had her for kindergarten and he is now 26 years old. Speaking of Christopher, one of my all time favorite songs is "Rainbow Connection". Everytime I hear that song I think of Christopher perhaps because he always loved the Muppets and does such an interesting Kermit imitation. :) Been that way today. Lots of thoughts about my kids. Concerned for Ms. Iris as her folks don't get along. She depends on me so much. Her folks love her I guess but are in their own worlds too much for my taste. Today after school, for her, both her parents were home. Mom was in PJ's sitting on the couch (when I got there). Dad was on the computer. Ms. Iris had called me and told me on the phone (all by her self she does this) that "Dad had lost the truck and would I PLEASE just come get her". Mind you she had been home from school probably about 20 minutes. Neither of them taking time to talk to my granddaughter and spend time with her after her second day of school. She had to call her Grammie to come get her and cuddle her and talk to her. Then we went to Joann's! :) Well we had to do something right? Anyhow; if you like Rainbow Connection, there are several versions in my Playlist containing lots of my favorite music. Take a listen! :)
I hope to get some soap and some bread made this next week as "Dad" is off work and I should get a free block of time. I have so much to do though and never seem to get it done. I now am caring for a seven-year-old boy on weekends while his single mom works second shift. He is "hyper" by current labeling. Ol' Mel is not a fan of that. I get such a kick out of him and he and Iris are good for each other. He has alot of issues due to his parental situation, Dad in jail, house burned down two months ago, and it goes on and on. But; he loves it here and he loves Iris. The dogs love them both!
Well that is enough catching up for now. I hope to hear from some of you soon. Sorry to be gone so long. When I get the soap and bread made you can send me your orders! LOL Meanwhile I am crocheting and adding Plastic Canvas projects to my repertoire.
Bye for now!
