Summer Classes For Men...............

This is my niece Annabelle guarding her private pool........



I've found a listing for a few continuing education classes for men this summer. You know, we should never underestimate our ability to learn at any age and the mind is a terrible thing to waste. I encourage you to utilize this valuable service to the community.
I'm sure that I'm entirely wrong for this, but..............

Daughter Visits, Lunches and Grand Dogs

******PLEASE click on "The Daily Puppy".......Please?********

My daughter Miss Nan came to see me!!!!! YAY, we had the best time, but then....we always do. She brought my Grand Dog the beautiful Malibu to see me and to play with her cuz dogs. Not too much fighting and vying for attention but.....a few little very minor "Alpha Dog" run-in's. Nothing serious though. Her bird, my grand-bird Sculley who lives with Prince and I for a while was so happy to see her. He started going crazy as soon as her heard her voice!! He loves my kiddo......but not nearly as much as I do. He's just staying with Grandma Gigi for awhile.
I love my Grand-Dog and excited to see her as well. Wow, did she look great.

Lunches this week are listed below. What a great time I had taking my daughter around with me to meet everyone. She is my sunshine........



My catered lunches this week, ready to go.......


Bacon, lettuce and tomato salad with my own special BLT salad dressing, cabbage and apple slaw, wheat thins, 1/2 an apple, a Splenda mint and low fat, low sugar gingerbread men with Splenda sweetened white chocolate on the backside........


Scully our Quaker Parrot. He talks up a storm. He's been so grouchy lately because he's molting....


Cousin 4 holding Sculley for the first time.....awww........


Sculley kissing his Mom my kiddo. Did I mention how happy I was to see her? I talk to her every day, but seeing her is so special.......


My beautiful Grand Dog Malibu. Look how shiney her coat is. She was so good but then again, she always is (after a wee little marking of territory....get it...."wee"....never mind.....)


Again, beautiful Malibu. I swear, she is America's next top doggie model right??? Fierce......



My darling girl had to go back home today. I miss her already and can't wait to see her again. We talked about 4 times while she was making her 2 1/2 hour journey and that still wasn't enough. That's my kiddo you know????? My heart.....my joy.....

Happy Birthday To My Sweet Son

Today, March 18, 2009, my son is turning 24 years old. He's my oldest and I just can't imagine for the life of me where twenty four years have gone so quickly.
I remember when I was a little girl.....the summers seemed like they lasted forever and my Daddy would tell me "Just you wait....wait until you're older.....time will fly by" and man was he right.






A LETTER TO MY SON

My dear, dear kiddo,

It seems just like yesterday when all three of us were sitting in this chair.
It seems like yesterday and yet it seems like twenty four years. Maybe more sometimes.
I told you when your sister was born that you were "a big boy now" so you would always say from thereafter "I'm a big boy now but when I grow little I'm going to be a football player". Anything that you said about growing up you always said "when I grow little". I thought that was the cutest thing ever. When your sister was born and I brought her home from the hospital you said "I never wanted a baby.....I only wanted one big black dog. That's all I wanted......one big black dog!!" Of course I got you your big black dog Doo-Wah and you loved her fiercly.
You loved playing baseball, taking Gor Chor Kung Fu and you were a straight A student who took all advanced classes. You learned to read when you were four years old. You made friends easily. You had a terrible temper and used to tease your sister mercessly.
Justin.......crazy things happen in life. Things that I don't understand. Things that you don't understand. Things that no one understands. One thing that I do understand and one thing that I know is true in this life is......that I love you. I love you with everything in me.
I hope that you have the best birthday ever. I can't believe that twenty four years of summers and winters have passed in our lives. Geez, sometimes I feel so old and sometimes I feel so young.

Gold and Silver have I none but worth a million is my son........

I long for you every day my son. I long for those days when you were big and going to grow little.

Your Mom

*************"You're gonna miss this, you're gonna want this back.
You're gonna wish these days hadn't gone by so fast.
These are the good times, so take a good look around
You may not know it now. You're gonna miss this"**************
