More so than New Years. Too many years in the classroom, I guess. Not a morning person either, how good of you to take care of the grandkids that early and get them off to school. I'm thinking I won't volunteer for such duty. <br /><br />Your life is full. Full of activity and changes. I suppose that is what keeps one moving. I think I need some movement.Midlife Roadtripperhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06700277803842883251noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7002258242339978362.post-69169965745313205192014-09-18T05:27:54.615-05:002014-09-18T05:27:54.615-05:00I wonder sometimes why fall brings up so many memo...I wonder sometimes why fall brings up so many memories. I always think about my childhood, which leads to thinking about lost loved ones. It sounds like your days are full..enjoy them! Have a great weekend.

But those little grandkiddos arriving (so early!) at your door surely bring pleasure and delight.

Of that I am certain. You are doing your part in the staying busy department. <br /><br />The photos of your parents were such a treat to see. I'm sure you must miss them so much. Remembering those traditions that took place this time of year is a wonderful way to honor them.

Palm trees don't change color and the temperatures don't drop much.

If it's not the carousel it will be the kids or tending to the seasonal shifts in home and life or someone's birthday or someone else's need for you. And that's part of life! The trick is finding the sweet spot where you can recharge as you need and when you need! Those naps sounds pretty good to me! (That early morning routine would kill me! You are indeed a good Gran!)<br /><br />So glad you are posting again!Jeaniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17482528482559445943noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7002258242339978362.post-80123999492414589382014-09-08T14:27:42.506-05:002014-09-08T14:27:42.506-05:00I am not a morning person either, so I understand ...I am not a morning person either, so I understand how hard it is to wake up that early.

Fred Astaire is dancing there next to you. It gets easier to bear when we have these inevitable losses in life, but it still isn't any fun. But it's tiring, so please rest. :-)DJanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07152183871573797791noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7002258242339978362.post-42126662799373862712014-09-07T22:05:33.659-05:002014-09-07T22:05:33.659-05:00Stress can just wear you out.
