Boy, have I been busy! Last Tuesday I went north to attend my younger granddaughter's kindergarten graduation ceremony--with cap and gown and everything. I stayed for almost a week visiting family, looking at and buying living room furniture,

Post Script

I's okay that my husband didn't share the $100 that he found in his chest of drawers with me. I understand that he stashed it away for a future use. I don't really need the money. I am totally cool with him keeping his money. ...Hey, Bill, can I have

Hunting for Boxes

Thursday, 10 May 2007 6:16 A GMT-06
In my latest moving adventure, I have been searching for boxes. In the past, my husband has been able to get them from work. Lately, there haven't been any the size we need. I've looked behind the IGA, the Family Dollar, and Wal-Mart. I've asked for

Here are two photos my husband took last Sunday. The first one is the back of the house. We've taken several photos of the front. I'm glad he took this one. Once the fence and sod are in, it will look a lot different. Notice the high crook of the

Call Me Grandma is looking forward to stories about our big move. At the moment, I have only one story. It is about what I have been doing the last couple of weeks or so. I've been packing our precious possessions (my husband calls it junk!) in
