At the hospital (again)

I think I'm getting Jenny's flu bug. I should be home in bed but am at the hospital this time with Jenny who may have an ear infection on top of her flu!
Than goodness for techie gadgets that make the time waiting a little easier to tolerate!
Apparently Jenny just achieved a high score...

9 years ago...

Hard to believe it's been 9 years since my Mom passed away. I still miss her and think of her every day. Funny how this photo that I took out of the album to scan has a little blemish 'heart' shape on her forehead. I swear she leaves these little 'hints' for me to tell me she's still around!
I used to kiss her on the forehead all the time to 'lord' my height over her...it was our joke with each other. Apparently she didn't want me to forget (as if...)

Weekend mornings

Saturday mornings are different for me now. I realized this this morning after dropping Jenny off at work. I swing by timmy's and get breakfast for Henry, michael and myself. As I am driving home, I pass by the hometown arena and see all the cars and parents and kids. I think to myself, wow, that used to be me! Now one is working instead and michael's games and practices are at night.

Funny how life changes on you when you aren't looking!


P.s. My brother and wife ( happy 25th wedding anniversary) return home today from their Mediterranean journey. Can't believe they were in santorini for real! I'll just stand in front of my santorini mural in my kitchen!!!

New doo

Not much news this week other than my brother and wife away in santorini (my dream vacation designation) so I went out and got my hair cut instead of pulling it out with jealousy!

Henry... Yet another scar

Slipped, fell a few feet and hit his head on a valve. I just hope his shoulder that he had his surgery on will be okay.

this is what it comes down to...

Bill sent this to us via an email today and I laughed so hard that I realized I had to share it with you all! Those of you on Facebook will see the humor in it, as my latest addiction is the Facebook Family Feud game that I play as much as possible!

My Living Will...

Last night, my adult kids and I were sitting in the living room and I said to them, 'I never want to live in a vegetative state, dependent on some machine and fluids from a bottle. If that ever happens, just pull the plug.'

They got up, unplugged the Computer, and threw out my wine.

They are such assholes .

Kobo

For my birthday, I received a Kobo e-reader...I love it!

(Now my romance novel addiction isn't so noticeable and the print versions aren't lying around the house!)

All about Kobo (and how you can get one!)

Guns N' Roses

Henry and I are off to see Guns N' Roses...it won't be the same without Slash, but a night out is a night out!

They better come on stage and be done before midnight...this girl has to get up for work tomorrow!

We won't wear our Slash t-shirts and top hats though...read this post:
