Momma

For those of you that read her blog, you know how much she hates laundry! I saw this picture in a magazine and it made me think of her.

The last time I did laundry, I took a picture of all the laundry on my bed. I only have 2 kids, but that pile can get pretty big! Unusually this pile got folded and put away same day.

Phone calls

Phone call #1: Saturday afternoon the phone rang and I didn't recognize the name on the caller ID, so I ignored the call. Until I recognized the name on the answering machine-it was my "blog savvy" friend-- a friend from a very long time ago. We have communicated via "space" (the Internet) but haven't talked in many years. It was good to talk to her. In elementary school and high school we were pen pals (I probably could still quote her address) and were friends in college and I was in her wedding. Another post would be about the night before her wedding--my car broke down and we were very late in getting back to the house. She was a little panicky. One comment I will make for posterity's sake: my friend now has a very Southern accent. It's kinda funny. Oh well. I'll still be her friend. :)

Phone call #2: I just got off the phone with my mother in law. I was helping her set up a blog. Who knew Grandma would have stuff to blog about? Right now, I think her life is more exciting than mine. She has "house guests" from both ends of the age spectrum. Her foster baby (7 months old) and her mother (98 years old). I can't imagine what those conversations are like. Maybe that's why she started a blog. Good luck and love you Mom!
