The trees are finally getting pretty and the pollen isn't so pretty! But it feels good and the days are a little longer and we get to stay outside more.
Except today which is cool, really dreary and cloudy. Its "blackberry winter" as my grand use to call it. It turns cool when the blackberry bushes bloom. Look around, you can really see the white blooms all around on the fences and in the thickets. All is good and everyone seems to be doing well. Don't talk to people much unless we are outside. I work in yard, read a lot, watch movies on tv..I love tv really, I do...someday i want a big hdtv or small one..might even put the darn thing in the bedroom and watch tv from there! Sweet! Fell and hurt my ankle a couple weeks ago and it still hurts real bad when i walk a lot on it. I think some small bones in the foot were broken , it will just take time to get better but its weak and I have to be careful on it. That sucks! Still walk every day with my son's dog and we go and mile and a half. She wants all the little squrells,squrrels, or whatever and stops dead in her tracks, ears up, being so still and quiet and she
really points at them. We saw a dead one today but i didn't scoop it for her!! could have been a crock pot supper! Might have to start that, can't go anywhere or buy groceries everything is so high. Love being with my grandaughter but her time is short, she has so many friends and people to do stuff with. I just appreciate the time I do have with her. We talk a lot and look at pictures and play. We both got all bent out of shape on Easter Sunday . She had to sit at the kids table and it hurt her feelings and mine. She was already pissed because some of the neighbor kids had been in her room and messed it up when she wasn't there. She likes her space and has a plan in place for taking kids up there and letting them play with certain stuff that she lets them choose. I guess we have to be mindful now that she is a pre teen and her "space" is hers . Its just going to get worse the older she gets. I still remember when she was about 6 and loved everything you bought her. Man, its not like that now! Best just give her money. The food was great, Jill and Lane did the cooking and it always turns out to be the best home cooked meal that I have had in a long time. I really enjoy eating with them and being with them, I wish I had the money to take them out more.
I need to think about getting a cell phone. I don't have one but now that i have a hurt foot, I think about taking one when I walk or even have one out in the yard or if I go to the park. for safety sense.
Looking at that Jitterbug, but its not a camera and has no choices in ringtones or such, I don't need much on one, just a camera, a choice of ringtones, don't need internet or music or such, so I will have to look around and think real hard how to get one thats cheap! Maybe a pre pay? I just don't know. Too old, too stupid. Oh well, maybe my family can put up with me a couple years more..just think, this april, I will be close..real close..to 70!!!
