Pack away and throw away

Today I packed away all of mom’s Italian pitchers that she had in her glass cabinet. No, we arent moving and she is definitely not selling them. We are just clearing a lot of stuff out from the first floor because we are getting our wood floors refinished soon. Our wood floors have no protection. Its raw wood. Its time to get them refinished to protect them from the dogs and everything else that walks on them.

Its never easy when there is always a dog getting in the way. As you can see Lady decided to lay on the newspaper that I was using to wrap up the pitchers. But I didnt make her move. I left her laying there and used the pieces of newspaper that she wasnt laying on. Yes, thats right. She got me wrapped around her paw. Just look at that beautiful sweet face! She is so huggable. I give her at least one hug a day.
Oliver was not far from me either. He was watching me the whole time. If he ever turns into a human he would know how to do everything. He is such a smart boy and the cutest!

As you can see it is junk night here. My mom puts out stuff early to give people a chance to come by and take what they like. People did come by which is nice because free stuff is always great. Hehe! I sometimes like walking around and seeing what stuff other people put out. It can be dangerous though if my mom sees something that she likes because she might just bring it home. Dont let my mom see chairs. We have enough chairs Mom! What is your favorite junk night item you see or have?

59 Is Just A Number

Happy Birthday Mom! Today was my moms 59th year old birthday. Hope she enjoyed it because I enjoyed spending her birthday with her. I made my mom a birthday card. Yes, I made the card. I always make the cards for her and my grandma. Its one of a kind card which makes it extra special. My mom, grandma and I went to an Italian restaurant for dinner and oh my it was delicious. I had gnocchi which was amazing and the best I ever had. I really had a wonderful time spending time with my family. Lets all wish my mom a happy 59th birthday.

Dont worry mom, 59 is just a number. I dont see you as it. I dont see you as any number. I see you as my one and only mom who I love and adore. No number will ever define you to me. It all depends on who you are inside and not whats on the outside. People always look at someone a certain way depending on their age but they forget the important part which is the soul and the beauty of the person inside. Mom you are still a very determined and fun person. Just remember do not let the number be who you are. xoxo

Happy 95th Birthday Grandma

Grandma_95th_Birthday_09My Grandma is 95 today and she is still going strong. Even though her memory is not that great and asks me a hundred times what grade I am in she is still very witty. One lady who was at the brink of death and now is back to her strong self. She amazes me everyday how she went through so much and is where she is today. So, for her birthday we went to this wonderful Italian restaurant called Andreas. They have amazing food. I always get some sort of pasta because it is so good. Tonight I got gnocchi and it was delicious! I am stuffed. It was nice for my Grandma to get out. She enjoyed it so, so did my mom and I. Happy Birthday Grandma!

Ah, its been an overall a good day. No big drama at school and  nice celebration of my Grandma’s birthday. Could not ask for more in a day. It is time to relax. Time to blast some good music. Time to just enjoy the night before another day of school comes by way. Well, I hope you all enjoyed this Monday and found something positive about it and I will chitty chat with you all soon. Peace.
