Good Mornoonevening, all!

My daughter hosted her two grandchildren this week-end. They're something like 3 and 2. . . or maybe 4 and 3? I can't keep track. Anyway, they made cookies Saturday:

Can you imagine the mess in her kitchen when they were through? For two bratty boys, they didn't do too bad a job.

It looks like they did a really good job! (And yes, I can imagine the mess... and the laundry :D )

We’re home! Daughter made it to her friend’s about an hour ago. Son has been reunited with his keys and wallet and is on a train to London. And we’re recovering with a mug of tea :)
I don't know how you do it. There's just no way in the world I'd be able to do as much travelling as you do.

We have a VERY thick layer of clouds this a.m. It's almost 8a and it's still very dark outside. We had a bit of sprinkle during the night, so it's wet and cool out there, but DARK too! Well, not THAT dark. One can still see to do one's chores, if one were so inclined.

I feel so sorry for my son. He lives in Texas in a 5 bedroom house (that sounds big, but it's one of those cookie cutter houses and it's pretty small inside). Living with him in that house are two teenagers (his step daughter's kids, a boy and a girl), a set of yearling twins (also the step daughter's kids, also a boy and a girl), his step daughter and her husband, his wife, and two rottweilers. When his mother-in-law comes home from the hospital, she will also be living there. The wife had full knee replacement surgery on both legs a week or so ago, and she's home with physical therapy every other day at the house. The mother-in-law had one leg amputated below the knee a couple days ago and is in rehab. My son had his back fused a couple years ago and can't bend, and is still in a bit of pain and tires out easily, but it's getting better. I don't see how it could get any worse. Well, when the m-i-l gets home I guess it will be worse. The house isn't really big enough for wheel chairs. Karma's a b i t c h!
