Long time

It's been a long time since I've blogged, sorry. My life has kind of been crazy for a while now. We did make it to Disneyland for my grandsons 4th birthday, but the trip wasn't quite what we had planned. The week before we were to leave my daughter (grandsons mom) fell down the stairs at her school and broke her ankle. Since we were driving to Disney we had to make a few changes but we made it and had a wheel chair waiting at our hotel when we arrived. We had a great time even if we did have to go a bit slower.


Then came daughter finishing up her internship and graduating.  She did it and I had no doubt that she would she has wanted to be a teacher for a long time. Then came the hunt for a job. She had a couple offers and she choose one in Arizona. We started the packing for the move while she did a web search to find a new apartment. Well the move went off with out a hitch. The two of them are now residents of AZ. I had planned on staying here until they were settled but we hit a big bump. The cost of day care for a child here is way beyond what she can afford on a teachers pay after figuring in the cost of everything else. So here I am taking care of my grandson 1400 miles from home, and here I will stay until the end of Aug when the two of us travel back home for 6 weeks. We will then fly back until Christmas and then I will go home for two weeks while they spend that time together then back I come. We will be doing the fly back and forth until the end of the school year. Then next year he will be in all day kindergarten so I will then be able to go home.


I did bring a spare sewing machine and notions with me but no fabric :(  . I haven't had time to find a quilt shop as we are limited to one car.  We do love having a pool that we can enjoy everyday except for the week after I got a nasty burn. My grandson told me it was because you forgot the sunscreen Nanny. So right and he is only 4.


I wanted to show some photos but for whatever reason I'm not able to on my laptop. So maybe next time I can share some Disney, pool and garden photos with you all.
