Had a Wonderful day!

Played with my boys, took walks, played ball. Got caught in the rain at the holiday festivities in town. Can't remember the last time we all laughed so hard, me included! We may have looked like wet rats, but gosh darn it....it was FUN!!!

Today was a day of LIVING!!!

Hi Gladys!
Good to hear that your day was so full of life!!!
How old are your kids? I bet they appreciate you spending time with them!!!!
I cleaned my car out today...we are going camping next week and Saffire and I do make messes in the car at times...cookie crumbs, french fries etc. It is all ready to load up on Monday AM. I am looking forward to the trip!!
I can RELAX and leave all stress behind!!!!

My babies...5, 2, 1 All boys too

Though today is the holiday, we are enjoying a peaceful, quiet day. Recovering from the busy day yesterday, lol. Watching the Sox/Yankees game as I write this!! GO SOX!!!

Camping sounds like FUN!!! I bet you'll have agreat week!!!

Hi Gladys!! I hope you enjoy the quiet day...Happy 4th of July!! I am in Canada so we had our holiday on the 1st.
Three boys!!! Wow!! Hubby and I have 4 kids between us. My kids are older, 22 and 18. My 2 stepsons are 12 and 9 and my Saffire, my granddaughter lives with us and she is will be 18 months old on the 7th of this month! The boys and Saff are going camping with us!
I have been busy getting our things organized and packing what I can. It will be lovely to relax!!
It is my intention to leave any and all stress here at home....hopefully it will be gone when I get back
I am really enjoying the chatting back and forth with you on this forum Gladys. It was so quiet here for so long! Hopefully more people will join in when they notice it is a happening place!!!
Have a lovely serene day

My baby will turn 18 months on the 12th

I hope others join in on this thread, as well. I am certainly enjoying our chat back and forth, as well

I've decided that I will try to make this summer as serene as possible. Of course, I have my moments...then again, we all do That's the joy of life!

I've delved back into an 'old hobby' of mine....Reading! Lots of self-help stuff now, but I try to add fun reads to the mix....

I'm considering adding a nightly walk to my life. I think it may serve me a world of good. All good things in time

Have a good weekend, and I hope you are able to leave the stress at home, even before you leave home

You are right Gladys! All good things in time!!
I used to really strive for serenity in my life. It is there all the time I just need to notice it more.
When I am rocking Saffire at night I feel it. I look at her and feel complete joy and a wonderful sense of peace overwhelms me.
I love that feeling!

Hello hello hello!!!
Just letting everyone know that I will be away Mon to Fri this week camping
I will miss everyone madly!!!
Have a good week and keep on posting!!!!!!

Hope your week is great!!! Can't wait to hear about it when you return
