Several Things
So many things to say, and so little time to blog!
(1) My 14 year old turned 15 yesterday…good grief her mother’s getting old…happy birthday sweetie!
(2) My loving, caring, and very special wife mowed the lawn on Friday based on a weather forecast that called for horrendous weather over the weekend…as with any plan based on weather, instead of rain we had wonderful sunshine…but thank you Denise for planning ahead and allowing me to be lazy!
(3) My granddaughter has decided that mobility is a good thing and she’s rapidly gone from “just sitting there”, to rolling and low crawling, and now to pulling herself up and being just one more stable leg away from running around the house…get ready…here comes trouble!
(4) And on the exact opposite end of the spectrum, our just over 3 week old grandson, who weighs just slightly more than a 5 pound dumbbell, has decided that these first few weeks and then months of his life ought to be spent chillin’…very much so…and I can’t argue with him…I long for just the same position!
(5) When I finish my travels next week, I’ll have been on 5 different airlines in the last 3 weeks – Alaska, United, Frontier, Continental, and Delta; I could have had American too, but I decided enough is enough; during these flights, during the flights thus far, I’ve had to pay fees of $3, $5, $6, and $15; I decided not to pay the $10 for the movie; I’ve learned my lesson now…no food and certainly no drinks on the airlines anymore, unless I’m fortunate enough to be up in business or first class (which is happening much less frequently)…also, no movies (I’ll use my iPod); but I’ll still pay for the checked bag ($15) so I don’t have to lug it around with me; and to rub in the fees, the news reported this evening that the airlines have made $1.1B in revenue on baggage fees…we certainly won’t see the end of that anytime soon.
Once again, so many things, and so little time to blog!
