The sun came up again today. I figured it would. I have a bad back (cutting and hauling firewood) and poison ivy, but there are rainbows in my life.

I think the grandkids had a good time with their grandad. I kept them busy. They are both very "hyper". We walked in the woods and cemetery, played in a park, went to a zoo, ate at Dairy Queen, played games at home, watched Toy Story 3, etc., etc. My meals weren't too nutrutious (hot dogs and pancakes), but what the heck, no complaints. And nobody got injured or maimed. But I wouldn't want to do this full time.
The kids are snotty, whiny, loud and obnoxious. They have horrible table manners (or manners in general). I tried to keep my "corrections" to a minimum. Not my job. I just don't understand where I went wrong with my daughter Valerie, their mother. She was taught how to be a proper young lady. Perhaps she's tired of fighting the current.

The good news is two of my 4 children, Darin and Laura (ages 28 and 35) are flying "home" from California tonight! My Indiana daughter (Emily) is picking them up (Indy). I'm eager to see them. Don't know what they have planned while here for a week.

In the meantime, I'm golfing and gardening, etc., the usual. I blanched and froze asparagus and green beans yest. Also picked and froze a gallon of blackberries. But I saved out enough for a cobbler! Yum.
Have a great day/week.
