Good Morning. I really am enjoying this thread. I don’t get a lot of time to spend here as we are raising (adopted) our 9year old grandson, plus adopted a 17 year old foster daughter, and we are seniors! lol..Just wanted you to know how much I am enjoying it Amy et all!! Especially loved this graphic Amy.

Morning! well you & Amy can compare notes.. having this in common with raising little ones in your “golden” years..
hard enough when you are young!
good luck pollly!
off to get some Advantage flea products for dogs & some straw at the feed mill.
got tomato plants yesterday. I wanted some of the el cheapo sell packs (usually 6 plants for about 2.00) but out .. so I got 2 plants at 3.00 each.. one is a grape variety & another is called Park’s Warrior!. Got them at Loews
I grow them in containers & normally have 10 or more pots. This year will have less & will pamper them more ! I really like tomatos & had none recently at the Winking Lizard on my veggie burger & no Tomato salsa at Chipolte’s yesterday. Both restaurants are not using any fresh tomatoes until the current situation is gone.
Welcome to Amy’s Place.
I completely understand about raising another child at an age when we should be doing senior things. (Whatever that is.)
WE are raising my greatniece. She is eight. Her mother is not a responsible adult and cannot care for her.
Eight and nine year olds can keep you jumping. Thursday was the last day of school. I was looking forward to it more than Marissa was.
Now I’m wondering about keeping her busy this summer. She starts 2 weeks of swim lessons on the 24th. Now I need to think of something for the rest of July. We will be starting our vacation the Aug. 8th and will get home just before school starts on the 20th.
Does your 17 yo help out a lot with the grandson?
