Hi everyone...
Sandy, you tried...now you can let go, knowing that you made a supreme effort...she'll always be your mom, but doesn't sound as if she is comfortable living with anyone. Hope the move goes well...just make sure all of her paperwork is in order, including power of attorney, etc.

DH and I got home from DD's about 7:30 tonight...she had a bit of a surprise for us.
When I walked into her kitchen, I saw a pet crate, and inside was the cutest little kitten in the world. It took me several seconds to get it...duh!
His name is Kenny, and he's a brown striped kitty. I took pics, and if I can figure out how to post one, I will. Needless to say, I'm a convert...I've always been a dog person, but he was so much fun!! and a cuddler, too!

DD took us to see her classroom...she is a jr. high math teacher of lower-level students. She has what is called a Smart Board in class, and zipped through it so quickly...she impressed the heck out of her dad and me...our little girl, all confident and grown up...makes me smile and tear up at the same time!

Now, it's back to reality I love getting away for a few days. But then you have to come back...

Hope everyone has a wonderful Monday!!
