BUSY, BUSY day.....

Why is it that when we have house guests that you can't relax and enjoy them and the conversation??? It seems that it always a hurried, hectic pace to get things done, fix meals, and not quite be yourself........when it should be just the opposite. And, of course, that seems to be the way it has been around here today.

I took Rachel to see Mike and then brought her down to our house a few brief hours so she could be with her "Grammy" and her "Granny" (the 1st Lady of TheHowserHouse, and her great-grandmother that is visiting here). Lunch was on the patio as even tho it is a cloudy day, the temp is just perfect.

I took a few pics of them......but will have to get a program downloaded on here before I can get them published on this post........keep watching!

oops......my presence is needed in the kitchen (dirty dishes????).........

4pm..

I am going to get those pics on here....yet. The 1st Lady of TheHowserHouse is not feeling well......a rather painful headace has put her down on the couch for the remainder of the afternoon.......so, I'll have my new lappie to play with. Need to be outside......the sun finally broke through the gray clouds/haze and it is really nice outside.

A nice evening.........enjoyed coffee on the patio with a very good friend and his brother, who dropped by later during the evening. Two brothers, one year apart in age, but.........way, way apart in personality and lifestyle........really interesting to observe and listen to the large
difference in brothers who grew up in the same household at the same time, and yet, there are soooo different. What an interesting study they would make for somehow who needs to write a psych. paper.

Still getting adjusted to this lappie........the keyboard is narrower and I am constantly have to rewrite some of the letters/words after years of using a larger keyboard. Guess you HAVE to teach on old dog new tricks.......so, as I wag my tail, I will keep "pawing" this keyboard and trying to do better.

The pics are of our houseguests: the 1st Lady of TheHowserHouse's mother and sister, and our nephew. Also pictured is our granddaughter Rachel. There will be more .........
