Random

I have been turning the computer off every day for a while. Not just putting it to sleep. Powering off. And no sooner do I do that, then my Sweetie wants me to look up something online. Then I have scheduled meetings to open and monitor. And last night, the girls were here and the 13-year-old had an assignment due for Geography and needed to use my desktop computer. Not sure why since she has her own laptop. She started right after supper at 7 ish until way past 11 when I went to bed. She later told me she stayed up until nearly 4. In the Morning!! She is 13!!

Earlier, it was quiet and I turned on Netflix to watch something. Anything not violent, suspenseful, sci-fi, animated, sports, news, or whodunnit. And wouldn't you know, the boys came in to snuggle and Mom walked in and told me what I was watching was inappropriate for little boys. I did not know that the chick flick movie I had just put on started out with a lot of short, rude words. Now I know.  So I switched it to Full House season one episode one. And that was not appropriate either since the whole series begins with the sisters fighting so turned it off. Sigh.

After supper, which my daughter cooked and her husband and kids did the cleanup and dishwashing then went to bed, the girls and I played a really good game of UNO. The rules were simple. No whining if you lose. I did not have to whine since I won, but it was a good game. And close several times. 

Then the little girls went to bed and I picked up some hand applique and visited with Ava for a while. Of course, that just distracts her and takes her even longer. I did help her print off her completed assignment and double-sided it since it was a brochure on sustainable farming. But it is fun hanging out with her after everyone else is in bed since she asks random questions which makes being a grandma the most wonderful thing ever. We have the greatest conversations until her Dad comes in and tries to make her go to bed as if he could since she is a teenager. And later she tells me she tried printing it off several more times after tweaking it. Good thing we have a GOOS paper box. Good On One Side.

Blessings,
