NONNIE'S OBSERVATIONS: Hostess Extraordinaire

kindhearted cousin
mind-boggling game ideas
a first-class hostess!

  
shower for new prince
awaited by princesses
Will he rule the nest?



victuals galore
colorful, tasty choices
kids and moms dig in




frothy “bath water”
rubber ducky mom floating
with her two ducklings





two handmade blankets
one in soft, pastel colors
sewn by her Grandy


other- bold, black
and Chicago bulls’ bright red
by friend/co-worker

adding my haikus
to Rebecca's

It looks like a worthy welcome and a great celebration.
Have a blessed week

Such a joyous time, Noni. I so remember the birth of our grandson just a few short 8 months ago. Life! The greatest cause for celebration.

Congratulations on the new grandson. The princesses will adore him AND no doubt keep him in order after a while.

Pondering about My Blog

I've been through quite a bit these past months that I haven't posted.  First, packing and moving and then unpacking . The first step of unpacking was my taking down boxes that were five and six boxes high.  About two weeks after I’d moved and was in the midst of unpacking, I developed horrendous pain in my ribs. I slathered on my gel I use to alleviate Fibromyalgia pain. Realizing that even that was not helping. Trying to make a long story short- Asked for pain pills No help; asked for another kind Doctor wanted to see me Went in- he didn’t understand why I was still in pain Sent me to get x-rays Diagnosis: compressed fracture in my 9th vertebra Cause: osteporosis Now on meds for that I’ve discovered that anytime I overdo, pain comes back, not quite full-blown, but enough that I must stop doing whatever I’m doing. That includes sitting at my computer writing. I wanted to bring my friends up-to-date; I’m pondering whether I should stop blogging altogether o
