And not in the really cute sense! The older i get the more I can't stand the heat...man, do I
sweat....literally to the Oldies! I have a really great family.........small...but sooo great. i have a
wonderful , strong son who looks after me and the rest of us. And a daughter in law who is a
caring, strong, beautiful young lady. I feel so blessed. And some cool grandkids..well, one is older but she is still sooo cool and really beautiful. And the young one is a tween..and sometimes a handful but they are my heart. Family is so important and no matter how much you disagree or fight..you have to hold them close..there is not wrong or right , there is just different.
Different ways of doing stuff, thinking stuff and life is too short to let anything get in the way of making up and staying close. Morbid, huh? Well, when you wake up each morning, reading the obits in the paper and you see people....it kinda gives you a reality check. When I owned my store for 30 years, a small clothing store, I had extended family there and loved them too..we had some funny, fierce disagreements but in the end, we always had the store birthday party for each one. Now I am retired and diservadely so...and my extended family is the neighborhood.
I count on them to keep me sane and make sure i wake up each day on the right side of the grass. And my son lives across the street so I can really annoy him.....I think he thinks I am ready for the "put out to pasture" bit already! Later...
