Today has NOT going like I had anticipated, but still pretty much par for the course.  And,  I’m not fighting for my “Sunday’s” nearly as hard as I used to.  With David being home most nights now, if it ends up that he has things he has to do on Sunday, I think I can probably live with that.  When I fight so hard to keep our “Family Sunday’s” in tact is when he is driving so much and not home during the week.  THEN I would be upset that he hasn’t been here all afternoon.  But, I’ll let this week (…..and last week…..) slide.

Speaking of sliding….its SNOWING!! outside.  I haven’t looked out for a couple of hours now, but when I did mid-afternoon, we had quite an accumulation already.  The forecasters were actually right with their predictions this time.  We usually get all these warnings about ALL this snow we are going to get, and then we just get a slight ground covering.  But not today.  Wonder if there will be any school tomorrow….might play hooky from work if thats the case.  I wouldn’t mind another day off this weekend. 

I really enjoyed yesterday afternoon.  I got to spend some time with my wonderful, bright-eyed, loveable grandson.  We’ve been so busy lately, esp. weekends, its been awhile since I had last seen him, although I had been keeping up on his updates from his mom through her journal.  But, it was the dream I had a couple nights ago that told me that I needed to go over and kidnap him for an afternoon.  In my dream, we had gone over to his house, and he came running down the road to me (not bad, considering he’s ONLY 10 months old.  His mom told him “not to talk to strangers”.  He stopped, turned around and laughed at her, and said “Not stranger, GRANDMA!”.   Hmmm….I’m having dreams that he’s walking and talking?????   its been entirely TOOOO long since I’ve last seen him.  And it has.  He’s doing so many more things now than he was just a short month ago.  Very active, and on the go.  No laying down a blanket and playing with him now.  Its following him and keeping him out of stuff!!

And away from Grandpa!   he has the cutest pout.  But he sure doesn’t like his grandpa.  But, I think most of that is, he doesn’t seem him that often, and the beard.  And maybe the gruff voice.  David voice is kinda abrasive, to a little one like that.  (and on certain moments, can be to us adults as well!:)  Anyway, Grandma came to the rescue.  He kept an eye on his grandpa, but he just didn’t want any part of him!
