My oh my! I didn't post anything in January! Well, I can tell you the month started off with a new year 2008! And, the very next day, Lydia turned 23. And then, Phil had a birthday and Tabby turned 39! And, Aunt Donice & Marcus had birthdays. I did manage to tell my daughter happy birthday - but I was late for everyone else! Maybe it's because I had a house full.... Maybe it's because I failed to reorder the calendar refill & didn't have it in my face.... maybe there are lots of excuses. But, nevertheless, January has come and gone!
One thing about January is that it was never quiet. We had 10 people (my step-son, Terry & his family) living in our house beginning on January 5th - with 1 bathroom! 3 of those 10 people were under the age of 3. They managed to get into lotion, mashed potatoes, nail polish, toilet paper, Pine Sol, etc., etc., etc. It was a challenge to get ready for school, work & day care every morning too. But, on the nice side, a "Merry Maid" cleaned a lot & cooked supper for me many of the days. As of February 1st, they moved into their own place. I miss my "Merry Maid" but the thing I miss the most is being greeted at the door by my grandchildren saying "NANA! Yeah!" - They really had a way of making me feel like they were glad I was home.
Amazingly, all the adults worked really good together. How did we do it? By the grace of God!
Guess I'm done updating January - hopefully I can update February soon. :-) Luv to you all!
