Saturday Morning.....Quite!

Wow! Did we have a bad storm last night. We heard it thundering for awhile, but not bad. They left to go eat and I stayed home. Awhile later, I had turned the TV on and a weather bulletin came on to turn the channel to 3, so I did. That's when I fell asleep. ahhaahhaahah I didn't hear anything about a storm. It was about 8:30 and my cellphone rang and woke me up. It was Leigh saying they were on the way home, but the clouds looked terrible. She asked me to put the dogs back into their pen. So, here I go outside which was almost dark because it was getting ready to storm. I got some treats for the dogs so they would follow me inside the gate. It started lightning! Now that's when I got scared. I could just picture me touching the fence and getting struck by lightning. With that finished, I went back inside the house. They got home a few minutes later right after it started pouring down. The kids were inside the kitchen talking real loud about the storm. I was wondering where Leigh was..........here she comes with hands full............they had gone to the grocery store and she was carrying everything in at one time. She was drenched! After everything was calming down, RyLee started playing with his toy laptop. Payton told him to turn the 'puter' off because of the storm. hahahaahah Just like Grandma! That was the first thing I did, turn off my 'puter'!

OK, all that was after I got home. Well, after I left work, I went to get my hair cut and colored. Since there was basically 3 different shades on my hair before, he said I needed to get it colored first, then highlighted at a later date. So, I now had BROWN hair again. I haven't seen brown hair is a long time. I am supposed to go back Tuesday after work and get it highlighted. But do you realize, that in 1998, I didn't have very much gray hair..........then in 2000, I was really gray! That's just two years apart. Stress, I guess. But this brown hair is so strange on me now. I'm really thinking of calling work and asking off Monday and Tuesday. hahahahahaah When RyLee saw my hair.........he said, GRANDMA, your hair is so beautiful! Thanks RyLee!

I guess we'll go to some attic sales this morning. It isn't raining now, but it will probably be hot later today. I'll need to wash some clothes this morning too. Right now Sweet Pea is sitting here beside me, she'll go to sleep here too.

OH, I forgot to tell you, I got a pedicure yesterday also. When I got there, my feet hurt so bad, when I left, there wasn't a pain anywhere. That's one thing, I'll have to do at least once a month. I really can't afford it, but it sure helped my feet.

Ok, everyone have a great day today!

Trying to catch up....

Well, let see, where do I start? I made it to Germany and back home again. Goodness, is that the only thing I have done in the last 2 months? I guess it is. hahahahaa



I did have a great time in Germany. It is such a beautiful country! My favorite thing to do is waking up in the morning and fixing me a cup of coffee and sitting outside. The quite and coolness in the air is such a relief. I would love to be able to do that every morning. Here in Charlotte, I don't care what time of day or night you're outside, it's is hot (during July anyway) and noisy........if nothing else, it's those singing crickets. hahahahaah



Tyler had grown so much since I had seen him in December. He turned two while I was there on May 27th. AND he can speak English and German. I do believe he loves his old Grandma! hahahahahaha

It was great being with both my daughters and sons. Cindy took me to have my hair cut and colored (my new look in the above picture) and we even went to the movies, in English of course, along with Gerhard. The first weekend there, we all went to a petting zoo where you can feed the animals. That was loads of fun, with the BIG animals eating out of my hands. Another thing I enjoy when I go over there is going to grocery stores. I don't know why really, I'm just fascinated with them. Roland and Christie took me to the Ritter Sport museum. Goodness, I spent more money there than anywhere else. hahahahahaa I go crazy in that place!



I forgot to mention that Gerhard has a Wii game. That was fun and funny! We were 'bowling' and it is really like you are bowling! I kept getting gutter balls. hahahahaa



Poor Roland and Christie had to put up with my snoring the whole time. Tyler though it was funny when he heard me. hahahahahaha



But it's sad to say, since I've been back, two months now, I have just gone to work and back home. I do need to get a life, don't I?



Hopefully I'll keep this thing current from now on. Talk later.
