Monday without babies

The nannie gig is over.  I woke up this morning in a panic, I'd be late to work.  Then I remembered, the other grandmother is taking over.   She'll get to cuddle with Callum or have Lily sit on her chest and spit up on her shirt while giving the biggest smile possible.  It's been a rewarding 4 months and I wouldn't have missed it for the world. (I did manage to talk my way into another afternoon before we leave this week.)

We went to visit with Margaret and Gil Turpin today.  Of course we had to stop by the book store to get some supplies for Margaret.  Terrible job but someone has to do it!  Marg is the most amazing woman I know.  In spite of all she's been through, she maintains a positive attitude.  I know she's eager to get to a point where she can return to Indy.  Her daughter Katie is coming to visit this weekend.  I know they'll have a great time sharing stories and love.

About Me

We retired after years of being in the computer support business, Jane with Brulin Corp and John with Unisys. We tried tent camping but finally settled on RV living. While we are part timers now, we hope to move to becoming full-timers eventually. John works on his HO model of Ellis, KS UP railroad and Jane persues her search for used books to read and sell on Amazon. We winter in Apache Junction, AZ and summer in Indiana.
