I use Last Pass for my password protection. All I have to remember is one password and all the others are locked away behind it. It will generate new passwords and sync them across all your devices. We went to this when the second iPad went missing on an airline flight and we had to go through and change EVERYTHING that my…

For those of you that express shock or something at 13 grandchildren ......that's nothing. My 13th was my moms 107th grandchild. No kidding. She had 42 grandchildren. 53 great-grandchildren and 12 great-great-grandchildren. She's only 83 so she might see even more! Needless to say she doesn't even send out birthday cards.…

The real blessing is that all 13 live within 15 miles of me and I get to see them every week several times. At a minimum at least on Sunday. Everyone goes to church and then we all gather at Grandma's for lunch (and in good weather for swimming in Grandpa's pool). This Sunday is pool opening day so they will all be sure to…

this is little Nelly Marie born March 5th. She's got a hint of a smile there. Meet Killian Dean. Grandchild #13. Five weeks younger than Nelly he almost outweighs her! He was born April 12th and weighed 9 lbs 13 oz. My oldest grandchild turned 11 on the 4th. and went to a Scuba Intro class to check out if he was ready to…

Still around. Currently watching two grandchildren while their mama (my youngest daughter) is at the hospital in labor with their third. This will be grandbaby #13. #12 was born 5 weeks ago so I've been around this block just recently. Marcelyn drumming her fingers in Houston waiting on a baby

Gave up on keeping up with the March thread. I'll probably make it here on April 1st and then at the end of the month with my track record. All is good. Grand baby #12 is getting fat and sassy at just 3 weeks. Mama makes a lot of cream obviously. #13 due in a week, although that mama says it's going to be a week late at…

All set up for the shower. 15 ladies coming so it will be a crowd. The coming little ones name is Killian. Naturally we have an Irish party planned for the Irish family!

Not even going to try to catch up. 622 posts to read. For all those that need prayer... done. For all those that need a pat on the back.... done. For all those who need a shoulder to cry on....here's a kleenex and a shoulder. For all those who need a happy dance... dancing away. Well we survived the flu. 12 of the family…

My son completed a 100K run this past weekend. That's about 62 miles for those of us on the Imperial system. He stayed with a friend who was fading and so it took him 22 hours. He said he would have easily cut four hours off if he'd been on his own but he was glad to stay with his buddy for safety. I guess one runner got…

The only time my husband has used shampoo on his hair in the past six years is when we go diving. The salt water just doesn't rinse out well and he starts to smell fishy. But when not diving he never uses shampoo and his hair is softer, has more body and looks better than when he was using shampoo. Me..... I lather and…

I can't say I'm getting much exercise but I sure am exhausted! I'm helping my daughter with the adjustment to 4 kiddos and although I had 4 it's been a while since I've been caretaker to little ones for a full day. The two oldest are sick and running fevers so they aren't their normal help. The real challenge is my…

Grandbaby #12 has arrived! Little Nelly Marie joined us two weeks late and after 26 hrs of labor. A stubborn little one. :) She joins two sisters and a brother. She looks like her oldest sister and has the princess pose of the other sister down perfect already. lol Big brother is rather casual about the whole thing (he's 5…

Labor pains for about six hours yesterday, serious contractions not the Braxton-Hicks things. She went to bed to get some rest and they stopped. Hopefully they did some good though. She's at the point of tears today and called and said she's bringing the other three kids out and with their bikes and we can go walk…

My daughter is still carrying that baby! They did a stress test today and baby is doing great. She is 12 days overdue now and irritable. I went with her to the midwife and afterwards we went shopping and got pedicure with extra foot massage to try to spark some contractions. She told me that she was giving up being…

I googled waiting and looked for a gif. He's the crab from the movie Finding Nemo Still waiting on baby. She's either 7 or 10 days overdue. The two midwives never agreed on a due date. lol It's her 4th baby so it isn't like this is new for her. She's just impatient and at the always uncomfortable stage. She's quite active…

Still waiting on that baby. Starting the second week of "past due".... I'm not half as anxious as mama is....

I got my first grey hair at age 18 and by age 35 was mostly grey. Now I'm about 90% grey, only a few dark strands in the back. I colored for over 25 years and I had to do it quite often because of my dark hair I would get the appearance of a skunk after only 3 weeks. My hair seems to grow fast I guess. I was constantly…

Still in holding pattern in Houston. Marcelyn

Grandchild #7 turns 5 tomorrow. Grandchild #12 is being stubborn and still hanging around in the womb refusing to let us meet them. ;) Grandma is quite impatient! Nothing like mom though, she's at the "I feel miserable all the time" stage. Just a few days overdue so that baby will be here soon. Just not soon enough for…

My daughter is looking so tired. Due date come and gone and she's waiting patiently. More patiently than I am lol.

I homeschooled all four of my children all the way through high school graduation. They all went on to college. Three of them received substantial or full scholarships to college. They all graduated from college with honors. They all are productive adults with families of their own. Three of them are homeschooling their…

The wind drove rain under the french doors so I had water in my livingroom last night. Not much but enough to mop up and I'll have to hang the scatter rug I had by the door to dry. No damage though. A couple of tornadoes did go through Houston yesterday and I guess they had all the people in my husband's office move to the…

Hey ya'll. My son finished his 50 mile run in 14 hrs. He was running with four other people and they chose to stick together. The winner of the race did all 50 miles in 3 hrs and 45 minutes. That's a 4 1/2 minute mile for all 50 miles! Crazy! The guy who did that was 38 yrs old. My son did well, not sore at all except for…

Remember when Christmas took forrrreeeeevvvvver to come when you were a kid? Now it seems like it was yesterday and tomorrow at the same time. I think that I notice it the most with my grandchildren. I suppose since I was involved on a daily basis with my children I didn't notice it quite as much but the grandkids... even…

Our teacher asked what my favorite animal was, and I said “Fried Chicken”. She said I wasn’t funny, but she couldn’t have been right, because everyone else laughed. My parents told me to always tell the truth. I did – Fried Chicken is my favorite animal. I told my dad what happened and he said my teacher was probably a…

Sorry for your loss Kelly. (((Hugs))) Supposed to get up to the mid-80s this week. Tired of being sick. Seem to be getting worse. I did go to the Dr. and it looks like it is moving from viral to bacterial. Sewing baby clothes today for the two grandbabies on the way and listening to my audio book. Nice way to pass the…
