Little Blessings

The grandbabies bring me so much joy.  I loved my children and these little off spring of them are just as delightful.

Writing Away and Biting the Bullet

I have been trying to finish my books since the whole covid19 happened.  I thought about all the time and effort I put into writing them and thought, I really need to get them edited and published so that I atleast have a copy in my library of them.  How priceless would that be!?  

The amount of time it takes get the thoughts to full fruition is undeniably priceless.  I thought about what would happen if my books got fried in my computer!  Oh my heart!

I just had to bit the bullet and spend a few hundred to have it edited and printed.  It is something I am doing for me and I think I am worth it!  I will be posting it online as well ... possibly under a different name.   haha

Grandbaby update

All my grandbabies are walking now!!  Little Joshua just joined the ranks a couple of weeks ago.  And he is so cute walking!  I have a four-year-old, I have three 3-year-olds, I have one 2-year-old, I have two 1-year-olds,.
As of right now only three are completely potty trained two are very close and one is refusing. And the other one is  not ready yet.  They are all growing so fast and becoming so smart and speaking so well. Sammie has always had her own little language but I have noticed lately that I can understand a lot more of what she’s saying, so either she is getting better or I am learning her language.
  • Joannie is very smart just like she has always been she’s the shortest one in her class and she refuses to take naps most days. She is learning family dynamic and who all belongs to her clan and she lets everybody know if you’re her family and how important you are to her. 
  • Wakely is learning how to ride all sorts of things we watch videos of her often and watch her riding her little bike down the street with her friends she also got a new swimming pool so I can imagine all the new tricks she will learn This summer. 
  • Benji has a temper and he refuses to go poop in the potty. But he is very sweet very loving and he loves trucks and dinosaurs. 
  • Sammie is still our crazy grandbaby she’s wild. She is also very easy to watch she minds very well she is super sweet and growing very big she used to be really Tiny but now she’s taller than Benji and I believe she’s very muscular she’s also our first grandbaby to played sports she played soccer before the pandemic she did not like it. LOL. 
  • Then we have Miss Evelyn who is as Beautiful as her name she is the one that looks most like her mama. She is Miss Independent and does not need your help! She doesn't like to be held, unless she wants to be held.  She has a deep little voice that's a little bit nasally because she really needs her tonsils taken out. She’s a good big sister to Joshua and a fun little sister to her other two siblings. I find it funny that she likes to have a purse a baby and a cell phone at all times and as soon as she gets into the car after daycare she asks for her phone LOL. 
  • Then we have a Little Danny.. oh Danny is the apple of my eye on most days!  He’s very tiny.. looks like his mama..and is the sweetest thing ever!  Loves dinosaurs! I think that may be the only word he says. 
  • Then we have a little Joshua who was born with the most hair of all his siblings.  He’s a brute. He’s as tall as Danny probably wears a bigger size if not the same. He’s rough, he’s tough, and he tumbles a lot. He just recently fell down the stairs at his new home -which I predicted might I add- and had to go to the chiropractor to get readjusted so he could start walking again. He has just learned to walk and I am very afraid of the trouble that he will get into LOL. 

I am waiting for Keiran Blaize to be born. My prediction is that this baby will be a lot like Joshua.

My Candle Burns at Both Ends

As many people are doing... I am trying to accomplish what I can during the shut down. But I am also trying to take time to rest when it is time to rest.  Going 90 to nothing and not allowing my body to rest during a stressful time could backfire.

I would love to have a time to close and just sit back and find some no stress days.  Dennis could manage all the bills for the rest of my life... the reason I work is beyond me.  My  "wants" are a little bit out of his realm probably.

At any rate, using some quieter time to reflect on what needs to be done and set some priorities is a great way to start. 

We changed the hours at the daycare and I have to tell you.  I LOVE the new hours! I want to keep them!  Unfortunately, I have always considered what my clients want above my own wants.  But 7:30 to 5:30 is floating my boat!
