Paradise and Memories

Today I am sitting here with my coffee, wishing for spring. Yes I know it is barely fall but I do nto deal well with cool weather. I am watching the grass grow in our lawn, not real grass just weed grass. We cant seem to get organized to get the good stuff planted. We do have a 25 lb bag at the front doot just begging to be planted. Well guess what else we need? We need Master Start fertilize and a thin layer of mulch to put on top. Not that we do not have dirt here, we just need specail dirt.
I can understand that. Every morning I see no less than a hundred birds pecking in our yard. Remember them Sher, They came in the fall. Magpies, Geese, and tons of black birds, you name it, the fall birds are here. If we had our seed in, they would have a feast.
Today I have 3 appointments, one to light the fireplace, one to light the furnace and one to fix the good old tractor. I have certainly got my moneys worth from that contract. Bet they have been here, 10 times. Small things but I dont know how to fix it. Today it is something hitting the mower when the blades run. Probably not dangerous but it bugs me. Remember I can hear anything and smell anything, Now seeing, that is another thing.
I sure hope you all have a great day. I miss all of you so much, and this weekend I get to see my little men and a lady, oh yes Ken and Kris too . LOL Those boys love their Mamaw and Papaw. It is always a pleasure to see them coming, Kind of like my Grandma and Grandpa must have felt when we drove up in the 50s. Sure loved my grandparents. He drank, she was not a house keeper but I Loved to see them. What great memories. Time on the Quachita River, playing under a big house. Seeing all the fish they caught, eating lots of catfish. Getting teased by my many uncles. I was nicknamed Grandma, because I lost all my front teeth at once, well within days of each other, I looked funny. IN fact just a few years ago, my Uncle Hugh, said "Didn't I call you Grandma?" I said "Yes you did and I am still gonna get you for that" He Laughed and laughed. Things that happen when we are kids stay with us. I sure hope we gave you good memories, we tried. family time was important to us. Not David and Me time, that was few and far between. My best memories are with you kids.
