A Posting from me














Finally got a few pics loaded. First one is my grandson Daniel. He is 4 now. Next is my granddaughter Adrianna who is 22mos. Then its my sister Helen and her first grandchild. Isn't he adorable? Then we have the 3 older kids posing in front of the neighbors water fountain. Last but not least is Adrianna who just had her first icecream cone, lol. She was taken directly to the tub when she finished. Things are going well. The kids are enjoying summer with swimming, picnics in park and going to the movies and making crafts such as posters and paper bag puppets. Emma hangs them up on cabinets for everyone to look at. Next weekend Rebecca and I are going away on vacation. We'll be going to Virginia to visit with my sister Lucy and her kids and grandkids. Jim's not going, he has to work. We'll do something together when we get back. I'd like to go to Berlin Auction again. We will be leaving Aug 2 and coming back Aug 9. I will take loads of pics and share them with you. Tonight I was going to delete my Facebook account, but decided not too. I seen so many I love and care about on there from JLand. I really miss JLand. Well, everyone here is asleep. I should be too, but I took a long nap today. I will be going to bed soon. I wanna clean up the back yard in the morning before it gets too hot out, and clean out the pool for the kids. They have the yard a total mess. Well, I think I better go get ready for bed before Jim comes looking for me. lol Take care everone and hope your summer has been a great one so far.

I MADE POTATO SALAD, A SALAD, AND SLICED UP TOMATOES FOR THOSE WHO WANT THEM ON BURGERS. THERE WAS PICKLES, OLIVES, BAKED BEANS. EVERY ATE GOOD. FOR DESSERT IT WAS STRAWBERRY SHORTCAKE AND ADDED SOME BLUEBERRIES IN IT, SO DESSERT WAS RED, WHITE AND BLUE, LOL. RIGHT NOW THE ONLY ONES HOME ARE ME AND THE BABY. SHE IS SLEEPING. EVERYONE ELSE WENT TO WATCH THE FIREWORKS AT PENNS LANDING. IT'LL BE THE KIDS FIRST TIME TO SEE FIRE WORKS UP CLOSE. I HOPE THEY DON'T GET SCARED FROM THE NOISE. I HAD A HAPPY SURPRISE TODAY. I FOUND 2 NICE RIPE TOMATOES ON MY PLANTS OUTSIDE. I PICKED THEM WASHED THEM OFF, SLICED THEM UP AND MAN THEY WERE GOOD, LOL. THERE'S NOTHING BETTER IN MY BOOK THEN A HOME GROWN TOMATO. JIM HAS A 3 DAY WEEKEND AND HE WAS TOLD WEDNESDAY HE GOT A RAISE. THAT IS DEFINATELY GOOD NEWS, SINCE THEY TAKE ALMOST 450.00 EVERY 2 WEEKS OUT OF HIS CHECK JUST FOR INSURANCE AND DENTAL. THAT DOESN'T INCLUDE THOSE TAXES. HE PUTS IN ALOT OF OVERTIME TO MAKE UP FOR IT ALL. HE'S BEEN DOING SOME SIDE WORK ALSO. WE'VE STARTED OUR SEARCH FOR A BIGGER PLACE. 4 TO 5 BEDROOMS WITH EITHER A FINISHED BASEMENT OR A GARAGE SO WE CAN STORE THINGS IN. WE'LL ALL LIVE THERE TIL WE BUY OUR HOUSES. I CAN'T WAIT FOR THAT DAY TO COME. WELL, I DON'T HAVE MUCH TO SAY RIGHT NOW. I AM TIRED. GOT UP EARLY AND COOKED MOST THE DAY. I'M GONNA GO AND TRY TO READ A COUPLE JOURNALS BEFORE EVERYONE GETS HOME. PLEASE HAVE A SAFE AND HAPPY WEEKEND.
