Sweet!

We took Grandma to the Drs. yesterday. Zech ended up being there with me because the Dr. was running behind (lol...go figure) and I had a client coming in so Meg dropped Zech off with me and Grandma. Finally, when the Dr was done, Grandma had to get blood drawn so I was going to run to my office and check on Meg. We went to leave and Zech went over to Grandma to help her up and take her walker to her. I said 'Zech, Grandma is staying here, let's go'. He looked up at me, with the widest eyes, and you could tell he was thinking "what do you mean?! No! She's gotta come home!" He did NOT want to leave Grandma. I explained, left, and then came back. He was SOooo excited we were there and Grandma was coming with us!! The nurses were cracking up!! It really made Grandma feel special.

Now, on the subject of Grandma. I don't know how many of you have ever taken care of an elderly person, but it sure can take its toll on you! At first I felt guilty feeling this, but decided it is what it is, Grandma knows she difficult at times. BUT there are so many things my Grandma has done that are hilarious! I thought I probably needed to start putting them in writing so I won't forget someday. I'm going to jot a few things down and do a total post on the things I do remember, then put them down as they continue to happen. Trust me, you will NOT want to miss out on "hearing" some of them..Stay Tuned!!!

On the road again...

Went to Tennessee this past weekend. Quick trip, but productive. Took Zech to the ENT, still no hearing in the right ear, slight hearing loss in the left. We are checking in to a hearing aid for the left ear. We are going ahead a upping the sign language usage, just in case.
Grandma is back home. She's a little sas I think, maybe it was just the long trip, just praying she gets happier.
It's been about 95* here, hot!! Working a lot lately, so glad! I can't stand not working, I know I work a lot at the house, it's just not the same though. I love making people look and feel better.
Well, lets see what today holds.

And the Emmy goes to..........

You guessed it, ZECHARIAH DAWSON! Just returned home from the 1st grade musical, "Is a Camel a Mammal". Too cute! Zech was on the front row and did so good! I was so impressed at how he did the gestures and kept up with everyone. Well, most the time, there was the Panda song where he was about 3 seconds behind everyone else, thus creating his own mini solo stepping out and saying "Panda", yep, that's my son! I can't remember laughing so hard!
Going to see Macey and Brad (and the rest of my family..:))this weekend. Its going to be a long trip in a short amount of time. I'm sure it will be packed full of adventures.
Oh, before I go, the answer is "Yes", a camel is a mammal!
