This is in reference to a comment from Happy Blogger. Thank you for your kind words to my blog of MY LADY. She was all of the things you said and more. I will write about her in other blogs.

DELANEY -

Delaney arrived at my house at 7:15 a.m. and Julie put her down to fall back to sleep. I was awake but pretended to be sleeping because if she say I was awake she would not fall back to sleep. By her sleeping I was able to read the newspaper and work on the internet until she woke up which was 10:30 a.m.. The morning was hot so she ate breakfast of eggs and toast on the patio and I had a cup of coffee. She kept herself busy playing with dolls or coloring. In the afternoon, about 2, I asked if she wanted to take my dog Mandy for a walk around the lake, of course she said yes. We hooked Mandy to the leash, grabbed a couple of plastic bags to pick up any accidents and began our walk. It was such a beautiful day, a little cloudy by beautiful. Just before we got to the lake trail I heard thunder and the skies got darker. I said to Delaney that we had better go back and she said, I don't care if I get wet and I told her I did. So with a scowl on her face we headed back for home, thank goodness, for after 5 minutes there the skies opened up and the rain came down as well as the temperature falling about 30 degrees. The rest of the day was spent watching cartoon, Sponge Bob, and doing my hair. She was playing beautician, spraying my head with water and pretend curling what hair I have on the sides of my head. This was ok because it was keeping her busy. Julie showed up about 5:45, stayed for awhile and again left me to my peace and quiet.

DELANEY -MY GRANDDAUGHTER

A response to Karen: Julie is lucky to have me and she shows it with her kindness and concern towards me. Delaney is delightful child whom I love very much along with the rest of my grandchildren. They all are a large part of my life.

MY LADY

In reference to a comment from Karen: The reason my blog is called "Lady Andie" is because she was very important to me. She was my wife for 40 years. This will keep her memory alive for all who read my blogs.
Thanks for asking. I will tell you more in a later blog.

DELANEY - DAY 1

Since Delaney has had her tonsils out the doctor said she could not go to school all this week, so grandpa is sitting for her. Julie drops her off on her way to work, 7:00 a.m., the important thing here is that Delaney goes back to sleep and sleeps until 9 or 10. When she does get up I put the tv on for her, thank goodness for Dora the Explorer and Sponge Bob. This takes up most of the morning. Today we had E-Bay packages to mail, which we did, went to pay a bill and returned home. By this time she was hungry so she ate two eggs. Then she wanted to go for a walk. In the area where I live there are duplexes and condos built around a lake that has a walking trail. We went for a walk, I can't believe how out of shape I am, my legs are killing me.
With the weather being so nice we sat on the patio and enjoyed the day. At 6 Julie came and picked her up leaving me once again alone in my world only to return tomorrow morning to see what that day will bring.
Happy blogging

LOAFING

To all that read this today, good day to you.
I can honestly say NOTHING is going on today. No hospital visits, no vet visits, just going to my sons house later today. I just finished putting a few things on E-Bay and prepared a few items for shipping. Being single (widower) I dusted, waxed and vacumed. My house is spotless.
I don't know how warm it is where you are but it is a beautiful day here, in the 70's. It is so nice that I had coffee on the patio with Mandy at my side and we watched all the neighbors, young and old take a walk on this beautiful day.
Well I'm going to enjoy the rest of this day and hope you do too.

MANDY'S VET VISIT

Mandy and I went to the vet for her 3:00 appointment and much to my surprise we got right in, no waiting, fast, quick and on time. The outcome of the visit is that she is now on a cough suppressant in pill form. She has to get half of a pill twice a day. Where were these pills when I first took her in for her cough? So she is scheduled for another appointment next saturday to see if these pills are doing anything. This visit cost $47.65.
While I was there I also made an appointment for her to get a hair cut because we both need one, maybe me more than she. So she will have her body beautiful day next week.
Until next time have a good day.
