Happy Grandparent's Day (and Great-Grandparents)



Happy Grandparents Day!!!!!! This day always gets overlooked by our family, mainly I guess because us adult children don't have any grandparents living on our side of the family and there hasn't been in a very long time. So it was never instilled in Natasha and Nicholas. The rest of the grandkids have grandparents on the other sides of the family so don't ask me what happen there!!!!! I will have to admit that it sneeks up on me and I am a grandparent, but I feel bad for my parents who are great-grandparents to my grandchildren. So I am apologizing to them for that.
These two little girls are so happy nearly all the time. They both have there moments though. The picture of Allyssa upside down is what she does best. I think if she could walk on her hands all the time she would. This was the playground at the campsite where some friends of our were camping and we were invited down. She also loves, loves our sea-doo. There is another picture just like this one of Vincent, Allyssa and the son of another couple who was there, but I downloaded the wrong one. Allyssa is in the middle as usually when there are 3 people riding since this is a 3-seater jet-ski. If there are only 2, Allyssa has to sit in the front, just for my well-being!!!!
It was a very relaxing day but we did not get home until late, late, late. So we did not make it to church.
We still have had not rain in a couple of weeks and it is needed sssooooooo bad. At least the temp has come down a little bit in the 90's i think now. Our little bit of Fall weather is just around the corner, I just know it!
I don't have anything to log on my response to the estrogen patch I was prescribed by my physician. I am suppose to be noticing a better sense of well-being (feeling better, maybe a little bit not quite sure), sounds stupid doesn't it! Sleeping better at night, kinda of hard to know I guess when I am on Ambien CR to sleep anyway, I would probably say NOT. Since the past 3 nights I have ended up on the couch, could it be that I need to assurance of the ceiling fan running as HIGH as I can get it. Hot flashes not quite so bad as of yet. Can't really say about yesterday since we were in the water all day so I don't think that counts! I have to go back to the doctor in four weeks for a bone density test and to "talk" about how I am feeling! Of how I long for the 20-30's when you did not really have to worry about mammograms, bone density tests, hot flashes, menopause.........why, why is it that we have to go through all of this? I know that when I get to heaven and see Eve I might just slap her a couple of times and then I might ask God why (although I know we are not suppose to be questioning the almighty!) by he had to put the whole burden on us, he could at least let the men have a little glimpse into our lives to see exactly what we have to go through!!!!!! I am laughing right now, but I can see the humor on God's face saying, "Nancy, Nancy, Nancy....it is not my fault Eve didn't listen to Me!" Of course, Adam should have to take some of the blame, I mean he TOOK the apple she offered him, he didn't have to do that!, Right? Oh my goodness, I need to get off of here, I am getting way too deep!!!!!!!
Have a good day!
