At the moment, I am not posting much; I am not answering very many emails; and I am only sporadically reading blogs and commenting. School is out, and I have been caring for two of my grandchildren. Today we went to the movies to see "Bedtime Stories". The kids liked it, and I was not bored. That's a good thing. After the movie, I went to the supermarket to buy the ingredients for a cake which I had promised for a party I attended tonight. I had bought one wrong ingredient for the cake and there was no time to return to the store, so I improvised with great success. I believe that in the future, I shall use my improvised recipe. Necessity is surely the mother of invention.
I haven't had much time to spend on my computer, plus, when my two grandchildren are here, they are using both computers, the desktop and the laptop, and I'm left shut out from access to the intertubes even when I have a few spare minutes. Tomorrow afternoon, they go to their mother, and I will have a break. Since I've been with them more often, we have bonded in a new and better way, and although it is tiring, the time with them is well-spent.
So apologies here Grandmere --what you say is all to the good.
ReplyDeleteSome lucky kids to have you as their Grandmere.
Plus, it [Bedtime Stories] has Lucy Lawless! :-D

ReplyDeletere the recipe- i think the message there just might be 'Trust yourself' even when it might appear you've got one mistaken ingredient.
i'm thinking a whole book of alernate recipes 'Mimi & Her Friends- Surprised by Life!'
just a thought

ReplyDeleteCher David, that's a lovely idea!
The movie was fun, and I believe it would be for anyone who approached it like a child. Having children along and seeing their enjoyment helps, too.
When my kids finally get around to doing their duty and giving me grandchildren, I'll gladly forego the Internet to spoil them...
ReplyDeleteTim, next holiday I'll lend you mine. I do spoil them. I can't help myself. That's what grandparents are for.
