Grandma's new set of wheels!

Monday morning we went and qualified for a wheelchair for Mom. No, it doesn't have a motor. The power behind it is ME!

I have found that within a very short time of being in a store, Mom is having to find a place to sit down because she runs out of energy to stay on her feet. Therefore, when we go to a store we have to hope there is a wheelchair available for her use in order for her to get around and shop. We have to make choices where to shop according to the availability of a wheelchair on site. So we haven't been to a mall in a long time.

Anyway, she now has a shiny new set of wheels to get her where she wants to go,... as long as I am pushing. This opens a new set of choices for us. I guess we will be taking a stroll around one of the malls here in town sometime soon.

Kara spent Monday night with us. She is our lovable little girl and we all enjoy her time here. She is at an age that will talk to you, sit on your lap, give you good hugs and kisses and is quiet. I know Mom enjoys her visits. She spent many hours holding Kara while she slept when Kara was a baby.

We had Meegan and Bryson here for dinner tonight. We enjoy seeing them, but after an hour of that sweet little BOY and his sweet HIGH-PITCHED voice, we love to see them go. Is that mean to say? He is in daycare, so by the end of the day he needs to "let off steam", and my house is not used to that kind of action!!! I advised Mom to turn her ears off, and I just wish I had a volume control for his sweet HIGH-PITCHED voice, ha ha!

Heather "breezed" in today for a short visit. She talked, we listened, she kissed, we kissed, she "breezed" out! Enough said!

Every day, something different! Nobody can say this is a "boring" household. I would like it to be, but we are just soooo popular!!

Keep those cards and letters coming, and the phone calls too. Mom loves to hear from you all. Now I need her to get into the habit of answering those letters and cards. She will tell you she is a writer, but she hasn't written a letter in a long time. Maybe I'll get her some simple cards that she can sign and send to say hi to those who write her. It's a thought.

Goodnight, family. I pray you all are well. Sweet dreams....
