So Papa has to go to a meeting tomorrow, and I’m riding along. Mainly it’s to be sure we use the coupon we have for dinner at a place we sometimes stop. I sure wish that we’d get coupons for local restaurants… I guess I need to work harder on that. The van has to … Read more
For some reason, the sun casts a different light in the spring. I can see cob webs, smudges, dust and other offensive things so much better in the spring. I want to clean everything, and NOW. It’s not happening, but I did do my usual Monday “stuff”. The house is vacuumed. The bed is changed. … Read more
It was nice yesterday, almost 40 degrees in the warm part of the day. I vacuumed out Papa’s car and my little car. I probably need to get out the carpet cleaner, but that will have to wait for much warmer weather. Today, I vacuumed out the van. It was a lot cleaner, we haven’t … Read more

I remember feeling pretty sorry for them after their show, sitting way in the back in the dark at a tiny … Read more
Today, we returned GD2 to her family. Everyone seems to have missed her, although they all remarked how quite and peaceful it had been without her. That was a moment when I remembered her need for “company”. I also let everyone know that she was pretty quite during the visit. That was probably because she … Read more
Papa, GS2, GD2 and I took a quick trip to the Cranbrook Science Museum today. It was Saturday, so there was a bevy of activity. GS2 and Papa watched a show in the planetarium while GD2 and I wandered. Her reaction to the Mammoth was , “Look at the big elephant!” She found the motion … Read more
