Another Late Night

Posting again late at night, cas I don't get to the computer until about 9pm. Check the email, play a few games & then start trying to learn something new in the blogging world. For a slowpoke like me, that takes a few hours. Thus the late hour. I keep posting in hopes I'll garner some comments from the outside world. I feel so alone!!!! Speak to me, bloggers, plz! Claudia

Late at Night

Go to bed, Claudia!!! Everything & everyone tells me that! So why do I fight it so??? Not quite sure! Want to get things, more things done! I've been working in the yard, planting new seeds, trimming the trees, dead lilac leaves from the freeze, and cutting hedges. Didn't ever get to Kristen's quilt today or yesterday because of working outside & watching tv. Shame! Royce mowed the lawn Sat., and I've been watering. Looks so much better. Royce tells me he will get me some more Cora Vinca for MOM's day. No rose bushes! I love them, but somehow I CANNOT make them grow. I'd LOVE a snowball bush. I would like just a nickel for every plant I've killed - I'd be a thousandaire, probably. Well, I am going to beddy-bye. Write later. C

Praise for the RAIN!!!

Hi, it's Saturday morning & I'm frittering away my time on the internet. i could be cutting Kristen's quilt pieces for her t-shirt quilt!!! I better get outside, since tomorrow is supposed to be WINDY!!! Today looks gorgeous, but I sit here in my robe soaking up the heater warmth & not moving! I need to figure out how to put new music on my music list. Keri did it for me & since I'm a visual learner and didn't do it, I'm having trouble figuring it out, or like you Amanda K, I jump around a lot & get off "chasing rabbits"! But I am enjoying my Saturday morning. I've already talked to a close high school buddy & we're trying to through a "girls weekend" together at her home in Breckingridge! What fun. I'll have to lasso one friend to get her down there, but that's all right. One of the friends went through a HECK of a past year in the loss of her son and the fight for custody of her grandson to her oldest son's family! She really needs the fluff from her friends. So pray for all of us to get together!

Corrections to My Family Post

New Pic of Me

The new pic of me on the post is me holding a 2 yr. old sea turtle on the cruise at the turtle hatchery in Grand Caymun. I really enjoyed the turtles!!!! Also you need to go back & look at the new pictures Keri posted for me.

My Middle Child, Keri

I just read the post about my birthday. It was lovingly written by my middle daughter, Keri, as a surprise for me, no doubt! The age is off worse than mine was by one year. She's off by 10 years. The ages are supposed to be 57 & 58 instead of 47 & 48.

My Family

All the Girls and Lance came in this weekend for my birthday. I told everyone I was 48 when I started doing the math however, I realized I added an additional year to my age and truthfully I am only 47. There's something to say about adding an extra year to an old lady's age and not even thinking about it.

I had a great birthday we fixed steaks, Keri made me a yellow and chocolate staked cake with strawberries.... and I received an ipod shuffle that's bright blue for my birthday. And the promise of new curtains. Keri brought in a few samples of curtains and I picked out what I want. So right now I have one window covered and the promise of the rest are on their way.

I spend most of Saturday working on Kristen's T-shirt Quilt it's looking really cute. Kaylee got all of us outside to play basketball with her. Quite the challenge for the older girls but we all held our own.

Here's some lovely pictures of my family.... Love to ALL. Claudia
