I'm up early as usual and in my recliner I can hear grampa in our room
getting up. It takes him longer now to do everything - we are both so
slow.
He gets up every morning and makes his breakfast. He
makes me a cup of coffee first and then he fries his bacon and eggs and
this happens every morning. I started out I was going to write old
stories but here I go telling you about now! But here is my answer to
everything: we are old and who cares anyway!
Grampa has this project going: it started out to be a birdhouse for Lori but she said no way is this going outside! It looks like our house (like the old school
house) right down to the old wood shingles. Its taking a long time. But
you know what? It keeps him busy and Lori says no way is this going
outside so now she has to find a place for it.
I'm going
over to my sisters right now and maybe, just maybe, I will remember to ask
her more about the washtub since she is a little older and really her
memory is better than mine. Enough Dee. Love you.
Holy moly, that "birdhouse" is incredible. And this is my favorite thing I've heard this week: "we are old and who cares anyway!" Thank you! :)

ReplyDeleteSo glad you opened your "big mouth". :o) Your wash tub story brought back some wonderful memories of my childhood. Thank you!
ReplyDeleteAwesome looking bird house!
ReplyDeleteSo wonderful to read your blog. You know, the more the things change, the more they stay the same. I bathed my two girls in the kitchen sink (modern day washtub) until they got too big! They especially liked when I used the sprayer on their heads. Almost as much water went on the floor as stayed in the sink! Thank you for sharing!!
