Just hangin' out.....

my grand-daughter is with me today.

We have played with play-dough, the home-made kind that smells like orange kool-aid. She has painted, this time more on the paper than on her....that is progress. We went outside and finished pulling out some annuals that finally met their doom, we put out feed for the birds and
talked about what we do to prepare for winter. Lunch was "chat" time and we discussed many a wonder.....like how does the kittycat from next door walk along the top of the fence? what is an igloo? she loves pasta, did I know that? so many things to talk about! It's nap time for the little punkin, Gramma's time to finish folding laundry and straightening the kitchen from the whirlwind of activities we have done this morning. Having our grand-daughter around keeps me smiling, she brings joy into our lives....just watching her dance around a room when you play a nursery rhyme is amazing to behold....the smiles, the dancing, the giggles....yep, life is good.

We called Grampa to see if he wanted to come home for lunch. "Uh, no Gramma he can't come home he's got a message"....what? a message. I talked to Grampa to confirm. He had a massage booked at lunch. Message, massage,....close enough.
