Plant

Jill...this is your plant again...the one I'm keeping alive for you.I repotted it and I don't think it liked it but it's having a little growth spurt now. The green paint is just a trial run...Colin had it left over from Maria's bedroom makeover. My choice will be just a little duller..but it does make the plant look good eh?

Baby

Just to give you a little picture of where I am these days. Having a new grandchild is heavenly. In the morning I choose my clothes according to what will be soft under the baby's face when I put her on my shoulder. Today we grouped around the lap top and studied the latest video, waiting for the movement of one little eyebrow that turned her face into an expressive scowl. It's just a grand parent thing ..hmmm

Mud

I don't seem to choose enlightening topics for this blog.I'll include this just to keep in touch. Having a new grandaughter changes my world for the time being. I do have that problem of being slow to change channels in my world. I don't think that two channels at once are workable for me. ( there's a sister who doesn't have a clue what I'm trying to say...not sure I do myself)
Anyway how'd you like to have these work clothes in your laundry basket. I cleaned them once but I'm not going to be a happy camper if they show up like this again.

Fuzzy

Garbage day so I've ventured into the dark corners of the bottom shelf of my fridge. Did you know that what looks like fuzzy curled up bundles of grey fur were actually 3 large cooked beets from another era. Or in Phyllis Diller style I could say they were my son's science project.

This incident was related to me last night by Garnet.

As a speaker continued his delivery, one listener got up and left the room. The speaker said.."I don't know why he left but I have two choices. I can think that he didn't like what I was saying and wanted to leave. Or I can think that he thought my speech was great and he wanted to tell the folks on Main Street to come and listen."
Garnet has found that this has helped him so many times in life.I'm not passing my opinion on this lesson but I'll ponder it.
