  • Four Days Till

    So the children came yesterday. Cameron was under the weather and sniffling. We watched Christmas movies (Snow Day, Famous Fred, Home Alone) and made drawings, refrigerator magnets, candles, and origami ornaments for the family. One little trip out to the Copymax to order a couple of those calendars with a different photo for each month of the year. I used photos from one of my family traditions which is that since my grandson was about 4 I’ve taken photos of him (and his sister when she came along) on his birthday in July and again in January every year in front of a tree in my back yard so you can see their height in relation to the tree. I now have 10 years of these tree pictures on my frig. Today I’ll go pick those up and do a little last minute shopping of extraneous things like wrapping, visit the library, and spend the rest of the day wrapping and writing Xmas cards.
    Deep Thought: Too bad there’s not such a thing as a golden skunk, because you’d probably be proud to be sprayed by one.
    Today I am grateful for: Good health

  • Man, how do you find the time for all that? I’m envious.

  • It’s not easy. It’s all about prioritizing and scheduling time. I feel like I’m doing the very basics of Xmas stuff and I still feel like I’ll barely get it done.

  • That is my definition of the perfect grandmother!  Infinite Blessings

  • Those kids are very lucky to have a grandma like you. Sounds like you’re building great Christmas memories for them.
