We have had a fun few days with Tristan. Nothing really exciting, more just hanging out. He and his grandpa have fun, no matter what we do. Those moments are so important for the memories they will make.
Some friends here are talking about school starting this week. Our schools don't open until next week, though teachers are back to work, getting classroom ready, and the police are already setting speed traps on the heavily traveled roads, getting people to slow down. Trouble is, it's not the adults who speed through school zones, it's the kids! If parents knew how some of their kids were driving, I think the keys would be taken away from them. The high schoolers always seem to be running late, so they speed in and out of the traffic. Anyway, that's my vent for the week - kids driving too fast and taking too many chances, to get to school before the bell rings. I've enjoyed having the streets nearly to myself in the mornings this summer.
Not much else to report on. We got bored with the closing ceremonies of the Olympics, so changed the channel. I've enjoyed watching, and am proud of our athletes, but I am also ready for "normal programming" to return! LOL Tonight is the final episode of "The Closer". I am sad to see it go. We have enjoyed all seven seasons. We will give the spin-off a chance - see how it goes. It follows The Closer tonight.
So, saying good-bye to our grandson. We will be down there for Labor Day weekend, though, so it won't be long before we see him again.
Wishing you all a good day and week ahead!! Peace, love & hugs.
This is Onyx, taking up my entire pillow this morning. He is a pillow hog, for sure! LOL
Have a safe trip down south. Cute kitty shot.
ReplyDeleteYou don't necessarily have to do "special" things with the grandkids; the "regular" things we did with ours growing up are the things I remember most, maybe b/c we did them more. Any time with grandparents is precious time for making memories! Glad you had a good visit with him!
ReplyDeleteIt's so nice that you and Joe had such a nice visit with your grandson! I can tell through your posts that he is such a great kid. You have to be so proud of him! I love the picture of Onyx! Have a wonderful week, Terri!
ReplyDeleteGlad you are having a nice visit with Tristan. That's so nice he can spend so much time with Joe.
ReplyDeleteOnyx is a cutie. I had a cat that was a pillow hog. I would get woken up with him pushing on my head with his paws trying to get more room on my pillow.
I watched the closing ceremony. So strange. I can't remember feeling that way about any other that I've seen. Was there a gymnastics exhibition that I missed? I remember the Magnificent Seven being part of the exhibition, and wearing makeup and their hair loose and just having fun. Do they not do that anymore? Only in America?
ReplyDeleteSounds like you had a good visit with your grandson!! I can't believe how many schools have either started already or will start next week. School doesn't start here till the beginning of September. I love the picture of Onyx!! Have missed you! Hope your Tuesday will be a great one !Hugs
