THE WEEK AHEAD

 I am both looking forward to this week and I am not. The good part is that I am taking my grandson twice this week. The "bad" part is I have a funeral and a colonoscopy.
Monday I have a funeral. I am sorry that I will be missing my Canasta game but what can I do? I would love to miss this funeral but hubby says I need to go so I will. It’s for my friend’s nephew. He had a massive heart attack while on a cruise! So I will try to go swimming Monday morning if I get up early enough as the funeral is at 12 and so is my Canasta game. UGH!
Tuesday I am taking my grandson in the morning for the entire day. I am not sure what we will do yet. Maybe painting and swimming. Maybe a visit to a museum. I will see what he wants to do. Our bridge game at night might be cancelled. That will be ok as I won’t have to rush to take my grandson home. He lives about 45 minutes away. My son keeps telling me to buy a condo near him. I wonder if he means I should leave my hubby or get my hubby to move too. My hubby would never move out there. My son has said it more than once…………………..Is it just selfish on his part? Of course I would move near him in a minute.
Wednesday I will have to prepare for my colonoscopy. I will stay home all day and relax.
Thursday morning we will go to the hospital for eight. I am not looking forward to it but also not that nervous. I will tell them to KNOCK ME OUT. I guess I will worry a little until I find out I’m ok.  I’ve had two colonoscopies. I had polyps the first time and nothing the second. If all goes well I will take my grandson. I won’t have to rush as I have nothing at night.
Friday of course we’ll be back here. Not too many weekends left as we will stop coming at the beginning of September.
I’ve had a good weekend. Friday and Saturday night we played cards. One of my friends brought her friend for the weekend and she was fun! We played Liverpool one night and Canasta the other. Yesterday was also the corn roast. Sunny but ok. A lot of people didn’t show up for one reason or another. One of my OLD friends came over to talk. Seems like her and her husband haven’t been well. I felt very sad for them.
No plans for today. We’ll hang out till around four and then go home.
I have been looking through some old pictures as I want to make a family wall. I have so many pictures. It will be a hard decision. I really want to put up pictures of our ancestors. I also want to make a Family tree so the kids will know how these people are related. Once I make the decision I will take the pictures to the place I frame everything and see how I should do it.
I’ve been wondering about my older son. I haven’t seen him for a few weeks. It seems strange because he isn’t calling or visiting. I keep thinking something is wrong. I will call him today because he is suppose to be babysitting next weekend. I want to make sure he still is. The parents(my other son) are on a cruise!!!!!!!!!!!
So it’s only 6:40 a.m. Do I go back to sleep or have breakfast????????????????????

I had forgotten all about Liverpool. My family used to play that when we would get together. I don’t have anyone to play cards with now.

I miss playing canasta – my grandma and I used to play all the time. 🙂 It’s really fun. Though it’s like hotdish, everyone does it different. 🙂 HA! As for the colonoscopy, I’ve read a few favs who have had one and my mom has had two. From what I gather, you’re not knocked out, but (according to my mom) you’re pretty drugged up and you won’t remember much. Try not to worry too much. 🙂 Hugs,

I hope your older son is okay. We never stop worrying, do we?
