OLD FOLKS AND YOUNGSTERS

 Greetings peeps. What a lovely, slow evening I'm having. My duty with keeping my 11 year old ggchild is finally over. I love her, she is great, she does nothing wrong, I am ecstatic that it's over. I'm too old for kids! Their endless "why's" make me crazy. Their messiness leaves me depressed, their constant hunger makes me stressed, their waking me up (twice!) in the middle of the night with a crazy question makes me confused. But she is a darling and I love her bunches. I'm just glad I don't have to do that too often. And at least she went to school. It was only the evenings that got me stressed. But all's good now.

I'm enjoying watching Only Murders in the Building. Have you seen it? It's really clever and funny in a sophisticated way, not roll on the floor funny, but quite a few chuckles. The three main actors (Steve Martin, Martin Short and Selena Gomez) have great chemistry. I'm watching the 3rd season. See if you can find seasons 1 and 2 if possible. Then watch 3. You'll be glad you did!




We are clouding up here, getting ready for a day of rain tomorrow. That makes me very happy.  

I hope you've had a great day, thanks for stopping by and commenting! I really appreciate when comments are left.

  1. Sent it Saturday morning already for me, it is raining instead of snowing. What a miracle. It's going to wash away the snow before it becomes frigid again. It's nice that you had a good time with your great-granddaughter. Questions and all.

  3. Dear Leslie,
    thank you for visiting and commenting on my blog, I'm glad you liked the photos from my Monument Valley & Navajo National Monument travel report.
    You already have an 11-year-old grand-grand-child? I don't know how old you are, but you're probably older than me. I'm 63 and have a 3-year-old grandson, and that's stressful enough sometimes. Yes, we love our offspring - very much! But it's also nice to relax 😉 Thanks for the series tip. I checked whether Only Murders in the Building is available in German on one of "my" streaming channels - but the series isn't free yet. I'll wait...
    All the best from Austria, Traude

    1. As much as you love them, you're always glad when they go back home. I now get when my mom used to say she had to sleep in for 3 days after watching the grandkids, lol, Yes watch Only Murders in the Building. I think you'll like it.

    1. It is a rather complicated show, sorry you can't watch it. Dementia is a cruel condition. You as his caregiver need lots of support. Have a good week. Sincerely, Leslie
