Even if I didn't get to garden

Category: Random bulletins from my brain | Posted: Thu Mar 08, 2007 3:23 pm

yesterday was a fun day.

Sat outside at picnic tables with Nicky's class for lunch. We sure were wishing we had thought to bring hats to shade our eyes. Nicky had his chicken nuggets, fries and coke and played with the bobblehead doll of a character from one of the childrens shows that came with his kids meal. He didn't talk very much, just seemed to bask in the attention received from grandparents and aunt....he knows how to enjoy the moment. He did totally ignore the little girl sitting next to him who spent her entire lunch time facing him and watching almost his every move, ignoring her parents who were sitting with her.

Lunch with Austin was inside, thank goodness. He and his Dad had been on a Boy Scout camp out last weekend so he told us all the jokes and about the skits they did. Austin had to get glasses a couple of weeks ago and while they do look really good on him, he also looks older in them. He is growing up too quickly.

Amanda also got the job she applied for. We were beginning to think it wasn't going to happen. She starts Saturday and even tho it is at a food place, Quiznos subs, she is excited to have money of her own.

Isn't it fun to imagine what is going on in those little heads when they aren't telling you?
Awesome about the job situation, it's almose dehumanizing to want a job and noone seems to want to hire you! Hope it goes well for her.

Job hunting is one of the most awful things on earth. Sometimes the only thing worse is not having one.
Glad you had a good time with your g'kids. Watching youngsters interact is such fun.

Nicky certainly seems to have an admirer. Just wait until he's older and it'll be him watching the every move of the girls. LOL

I'm really pleased you enjoyed your day so much yesterday without any more mishaps.

Good luck to Amanda in her new job. A little financial independence at that age is so important
