What? Me playin in the dog water..............

not me Nana.....lol

That is handsome little Mr. Caleb discovering how much fun it is to splash all the water out of the dog water bowl. Grinning, talking to the water bowl and wondering why the floor was wet all around him. Yes, this was part of our Thanksgiving day weekend. We had dinner at my nieces and then came home and just took it easy.

Easy being going out on Black Friday to buy slippers and Pj's that were majorly on sale. Hey 40% off is nothing to shake a stick at when they are desperately needed. The grand girls had grown out of theirs and the price was definitely right. Along with the same price off of all slippers, which were needed as well. Yep, those kiddos are growing like weeds.

Yesterday we were going back and forth between dd's house and mine because we were putting up a few Christmas decorations and we had to see what each other was doing. As well as the grand girls wanted to show Nana their progress in decorating their room. Oh they were having fun and so very excited about decorating the top of their dressers and Mom making them garlands for above their beds. DD takes a green garland, wraps a string of beds or Pompom balls around the garland, then adds all of their Christmas oranaments because they have gotten a new ornament every year. It is fun because they talk about when they got the ornament and what they think about each one. What a wonderful way to share memories. I enjoyed listening to them.

Today went out in the craziness to pick up a couple of craft needs to work on finishing a project. Yes, are you laughing, actually wanting to finish a project. It makes me laugh as well because it sure seems to take me time to get anything done. Especially in the last 2 years learning to deal with Fibro. I think the hardiest part has honestly giving myself time and space, praticing patience on myself. That, surprizingly has been harder than I thought it would be. Now why is it that I am so much kinder to others than myself. Hmmmmmm.........

So today went out and learned a whole new lesson on being kind and how much it matters to others. I was thanked for having a good, happy attitude from cashiers. Now who would have thought........not me.

Then came home and promptly dropped the back hatch of my little Geo on my head. Forgot to prop it up because it is cold out and the arms drop without warning.....So promptly came in and got a couple of Tylenol and went "dang buckets, that puppy hurt" You would think I would remember that it does that, but the challenge is sometimes it will and sometimes it won't. Guess I was hoping for the won't!!!!!!! LOL

Hope you each and all had some good memories all your own this weekend.

Take the time to remember what this time of year is all about. It tends to remind us to slow down and enjoy the moments.........
