zoozzoom

I always start in the top right hand corner and work my way across each tile. I am about to start on the 'í' tile in the second row. But looks like I will be skipping that one rather quickly as nothing is showing up for me at this moment in time lol

2:34 am

gapeach

Dear friend, I'm going to put this one on hold and come back later in the day. Blessings to you and your family.

I am well -- do you believe next month I start my sixth year teaching third graders! LOL amazing how time flies. And our sons are now past the age we were when we got married *very old mama look*

3:53 pm

stidmama

How about you?

3:56 pm

zoozzoom

Time sure does fly by! Glad things are going well for you. I am okay thank you. Being a carer for my parents now. That takes up most of my time but I love them to bits.

3:57 pm

zoozzoom

I hope your sons still come and visit you?

3:57 pm

stidmama

I am so glad you are able to help your folks. Being close enough to do that is so nice - my Tom's parents live too far away for us to be much use to them, but fortunately we are near my parents.

3:59 pm

stidmama

LOL well Stidkid#2 is still living here, and Stidkid#1 just moved back to town (an apartment with a friend). So yes, I am a happy mama who gets to see her kiddos frequently. Stidkid#2 actually comes to help in the classroom a couple times a year. 9 year olds LOVE when I call this man who is almost as old as their parents "sweetie pie" and introduce him as my little boy. ;-)

4:00 pm

zoozzoom

Yes I am only about a ten minute bike ride from my parents house so if they need anything it does not take long to get there.

4:00 pm

Oh that is wonderful! I bet he loves it too. My little boy as he towers over you Haha!
