Grandma's Journal

Not even sure what has happened since Wednesday. Where did it go?

Well here it is Sunday morning 12:15am, and I am still up and doing nothing.

I have been sitting here going through all of my Elvis Presley movies, and there are 17 of his Movies on CD's that I don't have and I am going to put them on my Christmas Want List. Amy got me 2 beautiful sets a couple years ago for Chrismtas and they are in Blue Velvet Cases. I have watched them a couple of times, and now I think I would like to add to the case.

I know the past few years the family has gotten me Elvis Presley Wine Bottles from his private Wine Cellar. This past year I got one that is huge. It must be about 24 inches high, and it is in a Black Velvet Case with writing on it, and a certificate that says it comes from "Graceland Cellars".

I was kind of lazy today. I slept in, and then got up and made coffee, and laid down on the couch and fell asleep again. Woke up and managed to get mom up and strip her bed, and put clean sheets on it, and give her a bath. Then it was Brunch time, and then I ran to the store and bank. Back home in time to say good-by to my hubby, over to Amy's for a quick visit, back home to cook dinner for mom, and out the door with the kids to go to dinner, and hockey.

Speaking of Hockey, we won our 1st round in Play-Off games. Now we go onto the second round. So go AM'S!!!

Grandma's Journal My Journal I became a Grandma at the age of 49 years old. Well I was actually only 17 days from being 50. My baby girl gave me gave me my first grandchild. He was a beautiful bouncy boy. Then 2 years later she surprised me on my birthday at 5am by waking me up and telling me "Happy Birthday Mom!" Time to get up we are going to the hospital and having a baby today! I told her NO that's tomorrow. It took a little bit for her to get it through my groggy head that she was going to be giving me a birthday present! and she totally did. She gave me a dark hair beautiful little grand daughter. Now I can enjoy spoiling 2. I have decided that the best thing in the world is being a Grandma! There is nothing that come close to that! I have been married for 30 years to a man that lives for his family. He only wants the best for all of us and spoils us all! He is a good man that works hard for his dollar. We have a pretty good marriage to say the least. Well it must be if we can put up with each others faults this long! My mom who has Alzehimers lives with us and has been for almost 3 years now. She is in the finally stages of the disease and still hangs in there. She loves to grab the broom and sweep. She does this everyday, and several times a day. I keeps her busy. She will even sweep the counch or the kitchen table if you let her. My oldest daughter is going to be 34 years old this year and hasn't lived at home in 16 years. I spend as must time as I can with her. But it is never enough. She plans on coming home to live and take care of us in 7 years. I cant wait! It's my dream to have her home. She is a dear friend to me and we have a great relationship. she always tells me that I am her best friend.

A friend of my oldest daughter made it for me, and she did a beautiful job. I will treasure it always.		2009-03-29 12:15 AM Saturday has come and gone!
