OK, the first thing that I have to say is that I am SO FRUSTRATED. I have been trying to edit this post and rearrange the pictures so that they would go along with the story. However, I can't seem to get it figured out and I am getting a headache. So, just check out the photos and read the story and it will all fit. I will learn how to do this, just not today.
So, I am back to being "Gramma" to these two guys. Talk about Mutt and Jeff, ha! The little guy is Toby and the big guy is Charlie. Toby was mama's and Charlie is Jessie's. We have a ritual every morning. We go outside in the backyard and I throw tennis balls to Charlie. He needs to run off some of his energy. Toby just enjoys being outside. Charlie is only 2 years old and Toby is 12 or 13, can't remember. They are fun to have around. Jessie rescued Charlie from a shelter in Tampa when he was a pup. He was the runt of the litter. I'd sure hate to see the others. When I find the time I'll post some of his puppy pictures, they are adorable.
Guess you can tell that I am missing my grandchildren:( Speaking of which, I am anxious to get pictures so that I can get them up on the "wall" in the family room. For those of you who don't know, I will tell you the story of "the wall". Our family room has a strange angle with a long wall. There have always been pictures (family) on this long wall. Comments have been made over the years by all of the children that so and so has more pictures, where's my picture?? You get the idea. Oh, by the way, in the middle of this wall is a clock that Pat has had for oh, around 30 years. This clock has not been one of my favorite things but I have never taken it down. Hum, I should post a picture of the lovely thing. Anyway, Pati came over a couple of days ago. I was thinking about moving a large picture that I have over the couch into the living room. It would replace a mirror set that has also been here for 30 years that I wasn't too fond of either. Well, you know how women are, we got started and all it took was a little encouragement for me to decide to take THE CLOCK down and also take down all of the pictures. Ok, the picture of the clock is by Charlie's picture. I don't have time to figure out how to move it, ha! Anyway, we had a wonderful afternoon moving things around. We arranged pictures on the wall and moved the clock into the hall. (Where you couldn't really see it.) Pati was anxious to leave before Pat go home, ha! It took him awhile but he finally noticed that the clock was missing. He took it rather well and the only problem was that he had been looking there at that clock for 30 years and that is what bothered him. So, we compromised and I put up a different clock. Last night I took down all of the pictures and am waiting for Jessie to help me arrange "the wall" again. Pat says that I'm not kidding anyone, the whole rearranging thing really got started so that I can put lots of pictures of the girls up. BUSTED. Mentioning getting the pictures of Olivia and Sarah is what got this whole story started, hee hee!
Speaking of Jessie helping me arrange the pictures. I have to tell you, she should be a decorator. She is very talented. I hope to get her to help me redecorate the bathroom sometime this spring. I'm going to try to post some pictures of my beautiful daughter now. Hopefully they won't be at the top of this but if you see a beautiful girl, that's my Jessie:)
