I truly appreciate it. I completely understand about keeping the drama to a minimum. And yes, I remember the drama of two teenage daughters. But cheer up. Sooner or later they will be on their own, paying their own rent, dealing with their own drama. And you and Staci will wonder what happened and where did the time go and why is the house so quiet. :)<br />Love, MomVickihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09409645438732452330noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6292915201767940326.post-70840651904862575382017-08-19T08:20:09.359-05:002017-08-19T08:20:09.359-05:00Mom, I'll use FB to put up photos, and that...Mom, I'll use FB to put up photos, and that's about it. Keeping the drama out of my life is a good thing for me, besides, I get enough drama from the two teenage daughters. I'm sure you remember those days...boys, sharing clothes and the smell of hairspray every morning. <br />Enjoy the photos, I'll keep them coming.<br />Love, DavidDavidhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04569999115515790145noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6292915201767940326.post-61874563566164876542017-08-18T13:08:44.226-05:002017-08-18T13:08:44.226-05:00Thanks, Jenn.

Like y...Thanks, Jenn. The grands are so much fun!<br /><br />Like you, it is the family connections that keep me on FB. They don't seem to email much any more. They mostly text and I don't have a cell phone, so FB is the best way to stay in touch. That and the family photos, which are really important to me.Vickihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09409645438732452330noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6292915201767940326.post-87177159408290322872017-08-18T13:04:54.158-05:002017-08-18T13:04:54.158-05:00SJ...I confess to being a proud gran.

The kids have grown - both girls are taller than me now and Jacob isn't all that far behind. They are so much fun to be with.<br /><br />Oreo usually doesn't have hair bows, but she had just been to the groomer for the first time. David posted a short video of her jumping up next to him on the couch and then winking at him a couple of times.<br /><br />I am taking the weekend off as well. Duane will be here in about an hour to change the bandages on my legs. Once that ordeal is over I believe I will follow suit and find a good mystery to occupy me. I canned up 20 pints and 20 quarts of cranberries and that sort of did me in. Turning all those berries into juice was a bit more than I could handle, but canned whole I can use them for whatever I want.<br /><br />I remember you mentioned the 'Cat' series of books. They sounded interesting - something I might enjoy. Getting out to a bookstore is not in the cards and I don't have a credit card. But I have been thinking about getting one of those prepaid cards to order some things I am needing. A few books are on that list and I think I included the first in that series. If I like it, I can always order the rest.<br /><br />Enjoy your weekend. I plan to enjoy a quiet one here in my little corner of the world. :) Vickihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09409645438732452330noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6292915201767940326.post-16415649628844903812017-08-18T12:39:21.799-05:002017-08-18T12:39:21.799-05:00Those are good suggestions, BW.

They are so easy for me to download and his aunts, uncles and cousins enjoy the pictures nearly as much as I do. I hope I can convince him that he doesn't have to read others posts - just post pictures. :)Vickihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09409645438732452330noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6292915201767940326.post-72037685645343524422017-08-18T11:06:40.370-05:002017-08-18T11:06:40.370-05:00Great family photos Vicki!

Like you, I have limited 'friends' to those I know. I may rant once in a while on this blog, but I just have neither the time nor the patience to deal with those who just live to pick a fight. Life is just too short for that kind of foolishness. :) Vickihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09409645438732452330noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6292915201767940326.post-19253371671609370672017-08-17T16:46:12.033-05:002017-08-17T16:46:12.033-05:00Pete...I have never gotten into discussions on FB....Pete...I have never gotten into discussions on FB. I use it mostly so I can snag the pictures that my family post. And I keep in touch with cousins, some of whom will occasionally post photos of ancestors. That's pretty cool. I do use the messaging sometimes with my kids and with an old school friend who is a retired cop and who keep me informed on what is going on. I have no patience for arguing politics and those who insist on being rude and crude have been 'unfriended.' Keeps life simple. :) Vickihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09409645438732452330noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6292915201767940326.post-49734641727601656232017-08-17T16:32:57.506-05:002017-08-17T16:32:57.506-05:00I haven't quite FB just yet.
