Week’s End

My grandson was 17 yesterday. I always tell him he’s my fav grandson. Well, he’s my only. He’s introverted like his mother. He is kind, helpful, and opinionated, but he keeps those beliefs to himself. He will be a senior this year and plans to go to college. Somethings about him that make be chuckle are: he doesn’t like ice cream. I asked why and he said, it melts. He doesn’t like chewing gum. He never chewed gum. He hates sports and he 6’5” tall. He’s really smart. He loves most soups. He has several good friends who are nice like him.  He doesn’t like church. Erin used to make him go and he’d put his elbows on his knees and have his fingers in his ears. When he was 14, Erin quit making him attend. He said I don’t like “preaching”.  He likes school and learning new things. He likes metal detecting. He said” I’m never drinking alcohol or using drugs”.  He has a punching bag in the garage and uses it.  He’s a very unique young man.

I finished another baby blanket. Astrid, Laura, and Sigrid go to lots of baby showers and they give then as gifts. I’m working on another one now.it’s something to keep me busy.  Idle hands are the devil’s workshop!

Saw a wild petunia when Laura and I walked ar Lake Dardanelle park this morning. 

 

Sigrid is in Little Rock today at UAMS. She starts to pharmacy school there in August. I was nervous about her getting to her destination and parking in the big parking garage. She made it and now I’m praying 🙏 her day is fruitful in knowledge of what is to come. She had to take Calculus on line from a College in Nebraska as that was the only class she lacked.  Cal is hard, but online is even harder. She got through the class with a passing grade. I’m proud of her. Most of the folks in pharmacy school have already graduated with a BS degree.
