Good Morning Company Girls!

This is the start of a busy weekend. My grandsons are coming! Of course, they'll be bringing their mom and dad....and their dog...mustn't forget the dog....there's really not anything like the experience of having THREE Old English Sheepdogs in the house!
My van needs to go into the shop tomorrow to have the tires rotated...who knew you were supposed to do that regularly...not me..and well, it would seem that my front tires have pretty well worn themselves down ...hubby thinks we'll just rotate them to the back...which, according to everyone but me, knew that you're suppose to be doing all along! Good grief...there's always something when you own a vehicle.

Today, I have to leave in a few minutes to have my bone density test done....and then race to a massage appointment 30 minutes later.....then come home and clean up the quilt room so William has a place to sleep.....may be driving Maya to eldest daughter's place tonight, which is now about a 45 minute drive, one way, since they moved...they need maya to babysit tomorrow....Maya is having some Really Difficult times right now....she didn't get the summer job at her favourite summer camp, she didn't get into the praise and worship team at the church, which she was really hoping for( and so was I, people need to feel accepted at their church and she doesn't), she's having a hard time at work....one of the boss's is clearly racist, but of course nothing Maya can prove, I just keep telling her that she just has to work there 4 more months to get her college money, but it's hard.....so, if you could pray for her when you think of her I'd appreciate it..she's a good kid...she just makes some poor choices in effort to belong and be accepted by others. It's quite difficult for her.

Yesterday, I had my grand daughters for the day and the night before. Their mom had something to do yesterday and it was easier if they came here. They were pretty good and kind of amusing at times....at one point 3 year old Afton said...'nana, do you have chocolate Cheerios'.....I said no...she said, 'well, I'll just have to look over what you have in the morning then'...with a resigned sigh.....Don and I just looked at each other....

Oh, and last Tuesday, the quilting ladies and I drive over the border, into New York state and went shopping! What fun it was....we stopped and had lunch at Applebee's ...it was a great time and we have resolved to do it again!

So, must be off..on with the day and the appointments.....always appointments....someday I'd love to throw away my appointment calendar!

Have a good weekend everyone!

I hope you have a wonderful time with the grandkids! We went to see my mom over Spring break and it was a wonderful trip, in spite of the rain. Enjoy!

hahaha - great cereal comment by the breakfast connoisseur! Love it. Sounds like you had a busy week but I noticed that you got a massage in there....hope that helped make it all better. Will be praying for Maya...that's a tough situation for a young woman. Will pray that she will have some good things happen to reassure her of her value and importance.

Sorry to hear that Maya is having a difficult time, esp that she doesn't feel accepted at church. I said a prayer for her. Enjoy your time having family over. That is always an interesting and fun time right? =) Take care.

Sounds like a busy fun time! All except the part about Maya and the work situation. Enjoy your family time! Hopefully you have room for the people with those three big dogs running around too! :)
