That is exactly what I am doing. Relaxing. Last night Madi spent the night. She slept with me in my bed. We didn't sleep all that great. I didn't anyway. She had the light on all night. I wanted her to be comfortable and sleep as well as she could. She used to stay with us a lot but now she is such a homebody. She likes to stay home...sure can't blame her there! I am the same way. I think she may have gotten bored over here. Riley had a game and Lauren didn't want to come over. She did bring Divergent over. I never saw the movie and it was really, really good. It helped Madi was so patient with me explaining things. She has seen it a couple times and is now almost done with the book. So she is quite knowledgeable. I don't get to see her as often as I used to so I am amazed at what an amazing young woman she is becoming. She is smart, polite, caring, and adorable. I am so proud of her! And I am so proud of the job her parents are doing with her and Dylan. And Scruffy remembered her and was all over her! He hasn't seen her in a long time. Now he is so tired. Her and I also played a fun game, munched out and talked as we fell asleep. I loved my time with her.
Then the sad thing was a realization regarding another grand daughter, Lauren. She is going through much with her parents divorce. The happy family they knew is gone. Ryan and Amanda both have other people in their lives already. It is rough on her. Andrew wants me to be that "someone" she could talk to...but she said she has a lot of people to talk to...Leah, Breanna, Annie, Andrew, etc.... She doesn't need a counselor or me. So I need to back up. I guess since Andrew knows I was always there for him... I could do the same for Lauren. But I can't push my way into it. She just pushes me further away. Please pray for her. I know not many people read this....but if you do I would appreciate prayer for Lauren and Andrew. Thank you! Yesterday she went and got her hair cut and highlighted which makes her a happy girl. Haven't seen it in person but she sent a picture! She is such a beautiful girl. It is going to be hard for me to step back from her. I need prayer too.
After papa and I took Madi home her and Dylan were going to go to a new BBQ rib place in the mall. I guess it is so good but expensive. Papa and I went to Walmart for a few things. I wasn't feeling too well in there.
This past week was kind of uneventful. Going backwards with it....Got paid and paid all the bills.
Wednesday we went to Lauren's last basketball game. We lost. Our team didn't play like themselves at all.
Went and got my eyes tested on Tuesday. My eyes are doing great.... no signs of glaucoma or cataracts coming. I need glasses but don't need them 24/7. I picked out glasses at Walmart. I just need to pick them up now. My grandson Jared got his eyes tested and he is getting glasses too!
There was no school on Monday for Memorial Day.
We went to Ryan's on Sunday for dinner. Christina made a very good Mexican meal with rice, corn and enchiladas. Really good! Brad, Tara and girls were there, Andrew & Lauren, Don and the boys. We had so much fun! Lauren and Riley played Karaoke and Tara, Andrew, Jordy and Patrick played SkipBo. Lots of laughs and lots of fun!
Andrew and Dylan hacked Jordans phone and did this:
Goof balls!!!!!
It was also fun that Don, Parker, Patrick, and Joshua came over and stayed the weekend. Heather stayed home with Jared who was sick.

They went to the Brinnon Shrimp Fest and were so disappointed. It was nothing. Expensive but not much food or nothing. Some pictures they took.
Saturday night I took the boys to Dylans to play badminton. They beat Dylan. He was having an off night. lol! He shouldn't have bragged himself up so good.
Well, I imagine that is about all I got. I've been enjoying my hummingbirds. They have been going crazy with our water feeders! We have 6 or more out there. Enjoying them very much.
I am starting to feel good. Finally! I hope you have a great week!!!!
