Wednesday....and being at my Grandparents with No animals calling for me to feed them....I could wake up whenever I wanted...and I didn't want it to be 5:00! Why does that happen when you can sleep in??!?! I made myself somehow, manage to stay in bed until 6:45!!
Oh, and for the first time in YEARS...my sister and I had a slumber party! We had to share the guest bedroom...and somehow it seems strange to sleep with your sister when you are all grown-up and married :D But, fun at the same time....you can talk all you want when you are grown-up and no one comes in to say..."girls, it's time to go to sleep now!" :D (Of course, being the germ phobic that I am...I made sure she stayed on her side of the bed..ha, ha....)!!!
Today, we just shopped around, here & there...although, I didn't find any treasures..can you believe it....a whole town of shopping and I didn't buy a thing! Somehow, I'm thinking my Mr. will be rejoicing over that :D After shopping us girls, (my sister, Grandma & I) had a nice lunch out..then, back to their place to just hang out. We had brought food to make them a nice dinner...so, we did just that...(Nothing fancy, just meatloaf, baked potatoes, veggies, & a jello salad!) Why is it that we you go somewhere all you do is eat???? Another nice evening of visiting, laughing, and catching up!
Plus, my sister and I were able to go across the street and meet the neighbor you helps them now and then. She's a really nice lady that goes over weekly and helps my Grandma change her bedding and vaccums for her (Did I mention that my Grandma has always been a go-g0 girl...and one that has the cleaniest house I've ever seen?) So, being less mobile these days really is hard for her...and we are so happy there is someone close by to help her with those little things that are so very important to her. We also took her a little Thank YOU gift...not my idea...but, my Grandma & sisters...apparently the lady and her wife (Yes, you read that right, which is so interesting, because my Grandparents are okay with it...but, they are still from the prejudice area and struggle with their neighbors that are Vietnamese or someone who is black, hispanic, etc???) like to drink some beer...something called Moore's Pond??? It's brewed in Redmond, in case anyone out there is interested..ha, ha.... Anyway, so we go to Fred Meyer, and buy it...or should I say, I buy it...(I don't know what's happening lately...first cigarettes, and now beer?!?!?) And, I even had to show my ID ! The neighbor lady was in tears...."You don't know how much I care about your Grandparents" was her reply...."I like being able to help"! Our hearts were warmed...and I am still thanking God that while our family is so far away, He has placed someone near to watch over & help them!
It was a GREAT Wednesday! Sweet blessings!

hey... at least the lady wanted to see your id. i didn't have to show mine at our wal-mart a couple of weeks back because the toothless lady kept going on and on that i was WAY older than her and she was 40, so i had to be at least 44!! ARGH! that lady. glad you had a wonderful time with your sister and grandparents. i know this spring break is really flying by. have a blessed weekend and see you on tuesday.
