Aly I do hope you all have a good time at your daughters house. I can understand about not feeling all that up to snuff to traveling. Especially dealing with fatigue like you are. I leave all the flight arrangements for my hubby to work out when we go somewhere, since I make so many mistakes now. His problem though is it takes him days if not weeks to decided which flights to take and then he doesn't get them for the lower cost! That happened the other night when he booked our tickets to go see my mother for next month. He was not a happy camper. I do hope you have a good day today Aly!
Kimberly, I have always had dogs around me all my life. It was one of my "when I grow ups" to be a veterinarian. But then I decided I wanted to be a photographer instead. We are down to two dogs now. After we had lost our last one this winter due to old age, I told the kids when we run out of dogs I most likely won't be getting anymore. Our smallest dog is 4 yr old chihuahua and my heart just loves him to pieces. He is like a furbaby to me and loves to be swaddled and rocked like a baby. Since I wont be having any grandbabies any time soon, he helps with the "baby withdrawls" that I go through every so often.
Sandy, I do not think I have met you before but howdy! Glad your excited to have your parents come and hope all works out with the sale of their house. You have a happy mothers day to if your a mom! If not...have a lovely day anyway!
Helen...not psychic, just been dealing so long with people with ADD and such, I can spot them a mile away! Yes your right...it doesnt give them an excuse but you might find a way around it to encourage him in a way that gives him confidence that he can complete a job. I know he is not a kids anymore legally, but I have a tendency to think they are more like a kid then the kids are!
I had a lovely day today! The temps were up in the 50's and the sun was shining all day! I put on my shorts and tank top and went out with my eldest son, who brought all my garden pots up to the deck for me. I was able to clean them out from last years plantings and prepare the soil for this years. A few even had some herbs that survived enought to even be revived for this year. I got all my windchimes up with his help and now they are singing sweetly in the gentle breeze. I then made us some bbp moose ribs and rice and broccoli for the meal of the day. I am throughly exhausted! I sat out on my reclining deck chair facing the sun, soaking in the warmth of it while a cool breeze ever so gently cooled. The Lord is so good!
