Almost bedtime.....

HI all....another one that has been remiss about posting.....I have some time before bed so thought I would pop in and say hi....It was a gorgeous day 83...wonderful for Minnesota in April!!! 


I am so feeling like an in-between.....with aging parents that need some help and care....and children that STILL need some attention....and of course Want to be there to help/visit with and enjoy them and their children...and then a hubby that occasionally thinks I need to follow him around all day....and be at his beck and call....and then lastly MY wants and needs....like friends, exercise, reading, crafts....that seems to take last place....Mind you not really upset....I do love having my parents close, and my dear hubby, and of course my wonderful sons and their families...BUT...occasionally would love to run away for a day or two or three....away from the responsibility....and expectations....and just do and go and eat, and look at what ever I want....lol...anybody else relate?  I often wonder how I ever had time to work....lol....


Tomorrow is my Friday morning coffee....and try to go weekly....It is great a group of us gals meet....anywhere from 2-8 of us...It is so enjoyable....we laugh and talk, and compare 'notes' and just enjoy each other's company!  Very relaxing!! 


Saturday watching our two grandsons.....2 and 1/2 and  16 months....so that will keep me hopping!!!! Can hardly wait!!!


Hugs and time for bed for this gal!!!

Hi Red....I am good about doing special things for me....That I need....I try to get out several times a week and walk, and my coffee on Fridays and a meeting Wednesday(and sometimes breakfast out) and I bought a light that goes on my headboard so I can read in bed...LOVE THAT!
