Boy Time Flies!!!

Its been a few months since I last saw ya!!! And boy have I been busy! I figured tonight I had better get back into the swing of things and start doing things that I want to do...Not just those pesky things that I need to do! So here I am.....

While I was away, I redid almost the whole upstairs and changed a few things out downstairs. I still have many more things on my to do list. But its dwindling down just in time for the next list to be published!!!! I FINALLY got my basement cleared out. It has taken me 3 weeks and counting to remove all that I didn't need in there. I even painted a wall down there.....

In the last few weeks I found out that as of May 2010 I will become a grandma! I am so not ready for that chapter in my life. My son is only 17....Heck, I am only 35!!! Boy talk about mixed emotions there...They are so not ready for this and I don't know if they ever will be. I sure was not happy like grandparents are supposed to be when they find out that there babies are going to have babies...Right now that is hard for me,because I know what it is like to be 17 and have this baby that you have no idea what to do with....I was there,living on my own,my husband not living with me because of school....I know all those feeling creep up on you and you don't know where to turn. I did have my family though,my parents were there for me...And that is what I promised both of them....I love them dearly and I know they need us more than ever right now...... Then there is that part of me that is growing more excited as the days grow closer...I wonder what its going to be,how much will she weigh, how much hair will he have.....I have a funny feeling he or she will be quite spoiled!!!

While I was gone for these past few months...Janets day came and went. And I sat here remembering it like it was just yesterday that she passed away. I don't think a day goes passed that something doesn't remind me of her. Boy, I sure could have used her advice on my news about being a grandma!!! And boy do I miss her. Tonight while searching peoples blogs I came acrossed this recipe for a Chicken Salad....And like it was yesterday, a vision of us sitting around her table at Stitch and Bitch came into my head. I could smell the smell of her house.....Seems I could almost taste that salad. I could hear her silly laugh.....Just seeing that recipe brought me to tears....A little sad,but I think more for those happy moments that I do remember....

Well, I will be here more often. Enjoying this time here.....Don't be a stranger leave me a note!!!!
