Fall brings Change




Oh no, the day has finally come when my little family of 3 plus 3 critters is moving. Its sad but glad for them. They are getting a great house and a pool but they will be missed in this neighborhood. Especially by me. I will have to get use to walking without Ellie and that will involve walking and for gosh sakes, not talking to myself...it was ok when i had the dog, people knew i was talking to her..but now...the people in little white coats will come for me...hahaha. You know they will be busy and really won't have time for this old lady for quite a while but I am close enough for them to just whizz on by and bring me a ice cream from the new little ice cream place!! Or just say Hi....Its probably my fault that they left, I visited too much, called too much, spoke my mind too much...all the things that parents and grandparents do just because they want to be near them, to touch them, to hear their voice instead of cold e-mail. We older folks are more of a "hold the picture" generation and its hard to understand. That seeing them for a minute just to know they are ok is important.

they have good jobs now and Logan is in 6th grand and spending time with her gandma will no longer be a fun thing...unless we are shopping and I am all for that!! Now if a good looking older gentleman just dropped out of the sky and fell in my lap, i wouldn't complain but as far as going looking for one..nope, after being along so long my habits are hard to break and even harder to put up with someone elses' habits, so I can make it...if someone will just call every now and then to see if I am dead or not!! So long family.....live fun and love well.
