Day Sixty Nine

Here we are, me and Mom. We had a nice little visit today. She had just finished lunch. I got her signed up to have her phone service transfered to her new digs and left a message for the handy man to do some stuff he should have done last week, like hang her new corkboard. You'd think it was government work or something. She wanted to know if everybody was OK and I assured her that we all are, far as I know. I left her sitting on her bed, sipping a Boost. (When she saw this picture, she said she looked like she was a hundred years old.)

Day Sixty Seven

Sunday March 8 2009 - the dreaded switch over day to Daylight Savings Time. Dreaded for me, anyway. Everyone else seems to look forward to it and relish it. I absolutely loathe the loss of my hour. By the time my inner clock adjusts to this assault, it will be time to change it back again. That's always the best part! I always say that whoever came up with this bad idea should have to come to my house and reset all of my clocks. I have a grand total of 28 timepieces in my house, which vary from digital to wind up, and they all must be adjusted. Enjoy your "extra" daylight, good people. As for me, I still live on real time. In spirit, anyway.

Let me tell you what I do

Each day is a bit different because I'm a Domestic Goddess and don't "have" to get up and go anywhere. I was always a stay at home mom and now I'm a stay at home granny who takes care of her grandkids after school and when they're out of school, usually every other day, as I share duties with their other grandmother, God bless her! Once daily chores and obligations are out of the way, I'm usually on the computer doing something I enjoy, whether it be checking email or Facebook or Twitter or working with photo files and Photoshop. I'm into digital scrapbooking and now I've started a blog called Three Sixty Five, a picture a day for a year, where I post one picture from that day and do a bit of journaling about it. My days can range from running around busy to silent and laid back. It's a nice balance and I really have no complaints.

Day Sixty Six

Today turned out to be a gorgeous blue sky seventy degree Saturday for Neil to get some much needed yard work started. He's looking into his wheelbarrow and thinking, Where am I going to dump this mess?! I'll be so glad when everything greens out again. We've got a lot of Buttercups blooming. And the Tulips are starting to sprout. Tulips are my Spring time favorite.
