big girl pants, blessed, coat, cold, funny, fur, moments, nature, purple, reading, stopper, weather, widow, winter

I’ve been thinking of a friend’s mother who used fur coats as draft stoppers… she had numerous fur coats and it just seemed like the funniest thing to me, although even in those days people were no longer wearing fur, so it was a good use of the coats, lol…

there is a vertical space along the bottom of my front door and I have been trying to figure out what needs to be done to fix it…

my handiperson is supposed to be coming before too long to check it out, but as I sit reading in the living room there is quite a cold draft across the floor…

this afternoon I took one of my winter coats and hung it on the doorknob and I think it is stopping the cold air;-)… or at least slowing it down…

too funny, lol…

big girl pants, family, funny, Grandpa, grandsons, leggings, lemon, lunch, moments, pictures, shopping, son-in-law, supplies, widow

yesterday I got to spend time with my son-in-law and younger grandsons…

we checked out supplies for a project my son-in-law is working on and then went out for lunch…

I had fish and chips which were tasty… shared half the chips and saved one fillet for another meal……

we talked about the lemon on the plate and how Grandpa had laughed when the youngest bit into one for the first time…

didn’t get any photos of the guys but just managed to take this photo of the dessert – gummy worms, Oreo cookie dirt, whipped cream and chocolate pudding – before it was gobbled up…

then, we stopped at a store I rarely shop in, to look for sandals for the youngest…

and, I found some leggings and a t-shirt;-)…

the funny thing is that last week my other son-in-law texted me a picture of the same leggings that he saw on a person walking through a mall which he thought I would like, lol…

windows…

beloved, big girl pants, clean, family, funny, George, husband, laugh, widow, windows

was recently talking with friends about cleaning windows… at the time we were looking out the dirty ones in my living room…

in our house George was the one who cared about the windows being clean…

my friends felt that their husbands seem more interested in clean windows as well…

we kind of laughed because we all like clean windows, we are just less likely to do the cleaning, lol…

as I arrived at the office this morning I noticed the window cleaners setting up across the street…

too funny…

electronic picture frame, funny, Grandpa Playlist, humour, random shuffle, shared, special

I’m sitting here in the living room watching the Kodak Pulse electronic picture frame… it has pictures I’ve put on it, as well as ones that others have emailed directly to it… it has a very random shuffle and sometimes I won’t see a picture for ages and then might see it three or four times in rapid succession…

I often look up and see George looking at me through two coasters, or maybe they are napkin rings, from a visit with Cyndi and Ron a couple of years ago…  it is a very funny picture and certainly reminds me of the humour that George shared with me and everyone else he connected with…

perfect example of George's wonderful silliness...

perfect example of George’s wonderful silliness…

recently a friend put up pictures on Facebook of her dogs with hats on, and it made me laugh, remembering all the times that George would go crazy with whatever hats happened to be around…

we have put lots of pictures of George onto the frame and when the boys are over we often go to the Grandpa Playlist so they can see Grandpa and we can remember the stories that went along with the pictures…

he was so funny… what  special man he was…
