Hey ya'al! :-)

Hope everyone has a happy Friday & wonderful weekend. I know this is a little early but on Friday I have to work my regular job come home for 2 hrs then go to a part-time temp job for about 4 hours. We are also keeping one of our 2 year old granddaughters this weekend and are going to the other 2 year old granddaughter's birthday party on Saturday. I might end up baby sitting my 1 year old grandson on Sunday. I babysat the 7 year old granddaughter & 9 year old grandson on Monday & Wednesday for a couple hours ead day this week. Those two are just like the two kids on the TV commercial "you're touching me".

The good thing about having the grandkids around is I get plenty of exercise running after them and lots of love. The last time I had 4 of them over for the weekend I told DH I knew why I stayed skinny when the kids were younger, I didn't have time to sit down and barely had time to inhale food.

I'll miss all of you. Hopefully I'll get some time in on Sunday.

Smile & Stay Sweet, God Bless each of you,

Sounds like you're going to have a blessed weekend coming up! And best of all, just when you're getting totally worn out... it's time for them to go back to mom & dad, LOL!

My Li'l is pretty hyper and demanding after spending time with any of the grandparents. What's pathetic about it that we're with her!

Is that the one with the kids in the back seat of the car or the one with the kids on the beach?

Well Alice you certainly sound like your weekend is indeed busy. And keeping up with a 2 year old sounds like a good sound workout! Bet you love it! Have a great weekend!

My 40 hr a week is a clerical type job (a lot of sitting). My part-time job is an as-needed type of work. I'm an usher (a lot of standing & walking) for events held here. The night I got hired my DH (who also works as an electrician as needed for the events) had purchased me a ticket for the ZZ Top concert as a birthday presant. They were short-handed for ushers so I said I would do it. Unfortunately we could not get a refund on the ticket, but I ended up working the floor and had a blast. One girl even I asked if I was working or having fun. I told her I was getting paid to have fun, pretty good deal. Tonight I will be an usher for a comedian so it should be fun.

Here's an update on the grandkids. I currently have 6 and one that is deceased. I found out about 2 weeks ago that my oldest DD, who has 4 kids, is pregnant. Today about an hour before I left my regular job my youngest DD called to let me know she just found out she was pregnant. She's the one that had the little girl that is now in heaven and has the 1 yr old boy that I'm watching this Sunday. I wouldn't be surprised if my SDD (step-daughter) doesn't get pregnant this weekend while they are enjoying their class reunion.(LOL) She has the 2 yr old girl that we are keeping this weekend.

I do enjoy having the kids around but also look forward to them going back home. They always seem to make me smile and feel loved.

Well better find something to eat that's quick, and then start getting ready for tonight.

Hope everyone has a happy, safe, blessed, weekend.
