September...the days are short

Hi everyone...

Well, what has happened????  I don't want you to think I have been sitting in my rocking chair for 2 weeks. 

My friend from CA, Janet, was here on Mon.  Sep 22.  We had a nice bonding and also it was Maggie's birthday.  What a girl...she will do great things in the future.  

We took Janet to Davenport on Tues. morning after I dried and curled her hair.   It was like high school all over again.   LOL 

Wed was lunch with my classmates..we are really bonding now as 1/3 of our class are now deceased.   Yikes!!!

I was home all day on Thurs. by myself in the house.....Heaven!!!   Friday was a little piece of heaven also because I rode to Chicago with my 2 daughters.  I hope they enjoyed the trip as much as I did.   I don't get to be alone with them very often and it was a real treat.   I am proud of both of them.  Why do they say Chris is my favorite??????  Hee Hee!   I wonder what Chris thinks.   

Sat. I put my application in at Von Maur to work with the gift wrapping for the Christmas season.   I have mixed emotions about it.  I love to wrap presents and think I do pretty good at it.  However, I am such a "at home" person.   I just love being home.  Gary always says "why don't you go to work and then when I do....he says why do you want to leave me?????   Confusion sets in.   I guess I am a little worried if I have the strength to do the job...it has been 6 years since I worked.  This too shall pass.....one can always quit, but that is not my plan.   I like to finish what I start, but also know my limitations.  

More to come....we are off to Elim this a.m.   I don't want to go to the hayrack ride, the air is too heavy to sit out that long.
I forgot we also went to the pumpkin patch with Max, Jake and Olivia last week and yesterday we went to Jake's soccer game. 

More to come later...

Love, 

Mom
