OCD Adventures

We woke up to beautiful snow this morning. Lots of it. I was suppose to take Kirk back first thing this morning. I wasn't sure if my car would make it so Mike took him back for me. We had a good weekend, of course we had to go to Red Apple and get cat food (for the cat I don't' have), chocolate mike (which has too much sugar) and sour cream that makes great ranch dressing which he loves. His bag must have weighed 25lbs by the time we got it sipped up. He has been hording (or I would call it his obsessive compulsive disorder) taking over) glue from the school. He must have had 2o bottles stashed in his bag along with four boxes of new crayons. Too funny! Of course these things had to stay in his bag along with the new big bag of cat food, paper bags, a few toys and an old empty can of Chocolate Quick Mix. Now picture in your mind a small flight bag with all these things inside! You got it! Oh how I wish I could know what is going on in his brain. Oh the stories I could tell about his obsessions but enough for tonight. Until my next adventure.

Nice Surprise

Can you see the big red mark on his head? That was from falling out of bed during a seizure. Poor kid.

Whitney giving us one of her looks.

Wilson two weeks old. Isn't he cute. He is really growing. Over 8 pounds now.

When I got home from Thermopolis I had a nice surprise. Whitney was at our house. I love having the grand kids over. Soon mom and baby Wilson showed up, followed by daddy Mike. It as so funny watching Whitney walk on the treadmill. Way funny. Her little legs are so short it looked like she was running some of the time. Then of course her dad had to speed it up just to see if she could keep up. Amazing, she did. She loved it, of carouse grandma is over sitting on the edge of her chair praying she won't fall over on the thing. Thank goodness Mike was right there the whole time catching every little stumble. It makes me think about our Heavenly Father an how he is allowing us to try new things and sometimes we stumble but he is there to pick us back up. I am so grateful He has always been there for me.

It seems like I never have much to say. I have always envy those who can express there thoughts and feelings openly. I have been staying busy for the most part. However, I do feel guilty just sitting in my lazy boy being lazy but at least I am busy. Right? I have an IEP for Kirk tomorrow in Thermopolis. It is suppose to snow but I hope it won't be as bad as when Nicole's dad and I took him back after Christmas. That was a white out in some places. I am just grateful Klete drove us. I am not looking forward to this IEP. It will be his last one with the school system. Now that he is 21 he must move on. I have decided to move him to Worland's BHE. I hope it will be a good move for him. I will go and visit the place before the meeting just to make sure it is the best place for him. I hate making decisions like this for him. I just pray he will be happy and that they will be good to him.

Being a Grandma

Aren't they cute? Where is Wilson?

Sariah and her Hair!

I love being a Grandma! I went over after school and held Wilson for a few minutes. He changes every day. I am so grateful that Nicole and Mike let me come and just hold him. Of course Whitney is always fun to be around. She really makes me laugh. The other day Sariah was over at the house and had fallen asleep in the chair. Her hair is such a mess after she has been asleep so we are always saying you have bed head. When she woke up she came over to me without my saying anything and said, "Grandma, look it's not bed head, it's chair head! " Her hair was sticking out all over. I should have taken a picture of her, she looked so funny but cute. Oh, the joys of being a Grandma.

Update

Well I am back at work and trying to get back into the swing of things. I hate to admit that I was so lazy over the break. I spent a lot of time doing nothing. I felt guilty but not enough to do anything about it. I am grateful the family came so I had a reason to do some cooking. Last week I worked at the fabric shop. It felt good to be doing something. I didn't realize how much I missed working there and seeing different people. I just feel bad I am not as smart or as talented in knowing quilting information like Carrol. She is amazing! I wish everyone could see the beautiful quilts she makes. She has tried to get me excited about quilting but the verdict is still out on that one. Maybe if I had a place to keep my machine up I might be more excited about it. I did some sewing while I worked and I enjoy it. Shawnee and I went and picked up Nicole's mom last night. She is here for the new baby that we are all waiting on. We keep thinking it will be any day but I guess he has a mind of his own and will come when he is ready. So the next time I post we should have a new little one to talk about. I love being a grandma!
