Mornin' All,
There is no way that I could live out in the NW. I am sooo ready for Spring. The way they give the local weather around here is, oh say, 6 - 8 inches but in the higher elevations, that number could be considerably higher. I just shoveled another foot of "considerably higher" off my back porch. I do that every day. I have to go out twice a day and clean off my Satellite Dish so I can get online. We are, however, supposed to, according to the Weather Channel, get a break by next Wednesday. The sun is supposed to come out and warm us up to 40 degrees. Right now though, I have a fire in my cookstove and it is toasty!!! David and Julie should have good weather to travel in by Thursday. How's the weather where ya'll are?

That works good if someone else does Fridays, then I can give mom a break on the week day evenings. My schedule is more flexible than yours and I am a little closer too.

Well Janet, maybe we could alternate or something? I don't have to be there every friday, it's just the only day I can do. Whatever works best with everybody.

So if Emily and Steve are going to be there on Fridays...I will do a different evening.

Sounds like ya'll had a pretty good day! I haven't seen Grandpa out in a while...good that he's getting up, out and about.

I spent the day with Mommy and Daddy. Daddy ate a real good breakfast...bacon, 2 fried eggs, 1/2 cinnamon roll and an ensure. Mommy had fried her 2 eggs at 5:00 this morning. After I gave her meds to her, I told her she had to go lay down for a while, to give them time to work. She did just that. I helped her get a shower today, washed her hair and she went back to the couch for nap #2. I did the laundry, changed their bed, swept and mopped the kitchen and the old living room. I fixed fried green tomatoes for lunch, with leftovers from the fridge. Daddy didn't eat much lunch, but he drank another ensure. At 5:00, I told them they had to eat something before taking their meds, so they each had a bowl of peaches. Mommy said she likes the Butter Pecan ENsure best. I asked her if she wanted Vanilla and she wrinkled up her face and said she didn't like that kind. Daddy plowed off the hill alittle more and took the 4-wheeler down to get the mail. We saw 2 deer out the kitchen window and when Daddy came back in from being outside, he said they had been all around the house and out in the driveway. They were both in good spirits and were on the couch waiting for Steve to arrive when I left at 6:30. They told me to call when I got home!! I ain't had to do that in awhile, or EVER!!! But I did. If you cook anything, either there, or bring it in, don't cook alot. They get tired of it before they can eat it and then when I have to throw it out, Daddy tells Trish that I waste alot of food!!! Just cook enough to do them. The fridge won't hold but so much. Also, don't forget to check the fridge for leftovers.

Yeah, but while I'm there I can help Grandma with her bath and help steve with whatever else needs done up there....I really can't do any other day of the week.

Emily, I noticed that you said you were going to Grandma and Grandpa's and stay every Friday night? Isn't that one of the nights that Steve is taking FMLA to stay?

Hey Everybody,

I have unexpectedly taken on another project, and I have a favor to ask of you. I'm making a recipe scrapbook and I was wondering if you guys could email me old pictures of the family, even new ones, and especially pictures that even some might not want circulating (no make-up, bad hair day, and all that!)
Also, I was wondering if you could email me a favorite recipe of yours, something you make all the time, a quick fix recipe, etc. Any of that would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks,
Addy

Here's one of the pages I've done so far. But I need more pictures of the family for recipes like "Ruth's Fudge" and "Janet's Lasagna," yes I know, Janet has a recipe! It's true!

I'm going to try and go stay every Friday evening and night. I can clean and cook (as long as it's simple and i have directions, lol) and whatever else.

Trish~Just put me on there for the last Friday of the month and that will be the evening that I go and spend...cook, clean, whatever they need! I will also try to go other Friday evenings as well, but I can't commit to every Friday evening.

I think I am the only one that can change the picture since I am the one that created the blog. As soon as I get a copy I will change it.

I am still trying to get the other video to upload. Not sure but it might be too big. Still working on it. And as for the calendar, I haven't got it done yet. Make sure you "sign in" before you try to post something on it.
