Off for a Couple

Just a note to say I'll be "offline" for a few days. I've got my Honduran grandkids staying with me starting at noon today. Unless I can "lose them" in the adjacent corn field, I doubt if I have time to visit MyBloggers. My new "girl friend" understands. So must you.

Wish me luck. From what I hear, they are a handful. I'll need all the skills of 32 years worth of teaching middle school students! Now, where's my whip?

See ya later.

I am happy for you to have a new lady. That is a sixties thing but I
rather like it.

Don't understand what you mean--"sixties thing", but whatever. So far, so good.

Enjoy them as much as you can!! Tons of outside time from sun up to sun down!!! Water color painting, coloring or drawing is always a fun activity I do with kids that I work with, they are naturally so creative. Try to say "NO" as little as possible and just have fun exploring!!! After all, they would not be here if it weren't for YOU back in the day of child rearing and childbearing with your ex!!!!! PS, she is called your "lady/woman friend" I called Parker my Man friend when we were going "steady" for the first 6 months!!! He insisted "going" steady, as he couldn't believe I had never experienced that as a young girl/woman!! He is so modest, polite, and a true romantic that can love me like no other man/woman has ever been able to in all of my 49 years!!!!!!!! I have a hiking, biking, walking, and everything else we do and plan to do as partners for life!!! much love and laughter sent your way Randy!!! Barb

Hey Barb! Glad things are going well. I do have a stash of games (We played Old Maid), puzzles, and crayons, etc. I've saved most of my own kids' toys and stuff, just for these occasions. The Barbie dolls have "escaped", however.

I hope you have a sturdy lock on your closet door. Wouldn't want them to escape too soon.

comment by nittineedles on July 10, 2011 3:58 PM ()

No locks needed. Just the firm, but loving, guidance. We managed.

"New girlfriend????" Have I missed something since I've been gone?

comment by anniel on July 10, 2011 2:56 PM ()

Gee, are you still kicking?!! Surprise. No, I'm still "solitaire". I've only had one date, so I was kidding around. Stick around for more.

Kids quickly learn that rules change as roofs change. Hopefully, you will do fine!

comment by dragonflyby on July 10, 2011 9:27 AM ()

Thank you. Everything went smoothly. Nobody got killed.

reply by solitaire on July 13, 2011 4:48 AM ()

do the grand kids speak Spanish?You will do fine there.
Just let them know who is the boss.

comment by fredo on July 10, 2011 8:44 AM ()

Yes, they speak Spanish. They even tried it on me, since I don't! So I started speaking French. That stopped it.

reply by solitaire on July 13, 2011 4:47 AM ()

I can just see you all worn out telling us what a rough time you had--that's okay--just enjoy being with them before you enforce a 'nap time' 24 hours a day!

You do notice I am ignoring that 'girlfriend' remark!

comment by greatmartin on July 10, 2011 7:53 AM ()

Surely, sometime "back when", you had a "girl friend"? You know, before you realized .......
