Isla's Little Finger

Our poor little Isla has a sore thumb. Can you believe at her tender age that she has an ingrown nail. Her Mommy gives her little hand soaks several times a day. Mommy says it's like having a little spa bath for your hand. I hope our little one will be better soon. She has to keep a little mitten on so that she can't put her thumb in her month. I'm sure it's a full time job for our new parents.

Lazy Sunday Afternoon

It's fun to be lazy sometimes. I use weekends to catch up on rest from the hustle and bustle of my work week I find with each passing year I need a little more rest to catch and be ready for the week ahead. I enjoy watching The House and Garden channel and I learn a lot of little tricks for decorationg and what not. Taking time out for ones self is very important these days with all the demands on us in our busy everyday life. One thing I have learned through the years is how important it is to take time out just to smell the roses. Housework doesn't seem as important as it use to. I'm learning how to just enjoy life and not sweat the small stuff. Just a few thoughts on a quite Sunday afternoon.

MAIL SCAMS!!!

Two days ago I received a letter in the mail from UBE Payment Services stating that they where holding a $5,000 check for me if I would answer a very simple math occasion for them and sign the release statement and send it back to them at some address in Australia. Needless to say this whole thing sparked some curiosity in me and I decided to do a little research on my own and discovered that I was not the only person to receive this notice. It is a SCAM and should be reported to the authorities. How these people get our names I'm not quite sure but it seems that they have their ways.

Other people have gone as far as to replying with a signature and the answer to this very simple brain teaser question. After replying they have then been asked for a $10 fee to release the check. After sending the money they have not heard anything again.

Please be careful if you see anything like this in your mailbox.

One Month Old Already!

I can't believe it but our little Isla is already one month old. Can you believe how fast time flies. Her Mommy said that she is starting to develop her little personality with giggles and smiles. I can't wait to spend some time with her again.

Bad Day At Work....

It truly was a blue Monday. I think that everything that could of gone wrong hit us today. First half the staff was out sick. Students where angery because there were some scheduling mistakes made and the oh of course the bathroom in one of our other locations overflowed and was flooding the classrooms. Of course the students just loved that. All and all I thought that our manager did a great job of handling matters and keep his cool. I think I would have lost it. The only thing that kept me going was the smiling face of one of my granddaughters who seems to be overseeing everything I do. She make me realize that things aren't really that bad.

Nice Sunday afternoon

I thought all of you would get a kick out of this but as usual I forgot to set my clock ahead so when I went to Coronado to see the play that I had tickets for I was one hour late! Only I would do something crazy like that. Luckily they gave me a ticket for Thursday night next week so I will still get to see the play. Boy did I feel stupid. The afternoon turned out great in spite of the mix up. I had dinner with an old friend and his fiancee and it was really fun catching up on old news. It's great to see people that you haven't seen in a long time. Before I go I have another cute picture of Isla to share with you. Her Mommy keeps me well supplied.

Hi Everyone

Sorry I haven't been around for awhile. Life has been keeping me very busy. Since I have last spoke with everyone I have attended a wedding shower for a friend and have celebrated my middle son's birthday with dinner, family and good friends.

All seems to be going very well with our new little family. Isla is growing like gangbusters and keeping her Mommy very busy. Her Daddy is playing an active role in doing baby duties to. I have a little sweet picture of her that I think you all will enjoy.
