A GREAT DAY-OK

This is our last night in the country. For me it’s ok. Tomorrow will be a big day as we have to pack up all the food, clean up and drive home.

Today our children came, that is all except our daughter who said she wanted to sleep in. I don’t know why she couldn’t sleep in tomorrow????

So I went shopping with my daughter-in-law and her mother. I didn’t buy anything except clothes and toys for my grandson. Then we came home. My grandson kept us all hopping. At eighteen months he NEVER stops. I wonder what happens to all that energy by the time they are three and four.

It’s freezing out here. The leaves are falling and the trees are a bright red.

We made arrangements to go to Las Vegas at the end of November. I had to ask HUBBY for his Visa because the limit on mine is too low. I don’t think he was too happy but what could he do in front of the children. Besides my daughter-in-law was pushing me to make reservations so we did. Now I plan to SAVE as much as I can for spending money etc. I can and will do it. I have decided to only take out twenty or thirty dollars a day. This will hopefully curtail my spending. I may even leave my VISA and debit card at home. I AM SIXTY TWO. I CAN AND WILL DO IT. I MUST GROW UP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

that’s clever! Asking him for the visa card in front of the kids…real smart!! LOL. Enjoy yourself

I’ve always wanted to take a trip to someplace where the leaves change color. It must be such a sight to see. I’m envious of your upcoming trip to Vegas. I always had such a good time there. I used to go with my girlfriends once or twice a year and it was also a favorite spot to go to with my husband.

it’s going to be worth saving for the vegas trip. you can watch all the shows there.

Oh, I hope you have the BEST time!!!! I need to grow up, too. I’ve never done anything on my own. RYN: ITW is InTheWire.com & it’s the BEST diary site ever. I like OD, but since I’m one of the newer ones, it doesn’t feel like home. ITW is like being with family. xoxoxo

I’m sure you will all have a blast. I am not a gambler but I do enjoy shopping, especially in book & music stores. Now save, save, save for your trip. I’m sure you can do it.
