A little late updating about the "Parent's Weekend" last weekend, at OSU....so, here goes. Since it was storming Friday night, with a threat of tornadoes, I decided to wait and head to Stillwater early the next morning. More storms, more rain, lots of flooding, however, I left here by 7:00 a.m., and made it to Stillwater safely.
Morgy and I had a great day!! We had lots of fun going to a craft show and a fashion show at the student union. We're not real big on fashion shows, but, there was a free swag bag involved, so, we endured. :) We also visited the campus greenhouse, which was having a sale on some gorgeous plants. Of course, I had to buy a couple!
Afterwards, we went to an antique store downtown ( Morgan's suggestion), Hobby Lobby, Wal-Mart, and of course, to eat at Eskimo Joe's and buy the new teacher and Special Olympics t-shirts!! We had an extremely busy, fun day, but, I think I wore Morgy out! She was still sick, of course, so, instead of spending the night with her, I decided to go on home. I know she needed to rest and she would feel like she needed to entertain me if I stayed.
Fast forward to this weekend. I pretty much finished my flower beds, planting, etc. However, I do need maybe one or two more bags of red mulch. But, it already looks WAY better than it did a couple of weeks ago. I finally got my jalapenos, bell peppers, mint, cilantro, parsley, and peonies planted!!! My yard looks great, if I do say so myself!! I had some help with weed-eating and mowing though. My son and daughter-in-law did all of that while I was at work Friday!!
My grandbaby spent the night with me Friday night! His first overnight sleepover, EVER!!! :) He was SO good. He's such a cute, little sweetie! He didn't cry at bedtime, nor, in the morning, when he woke up and discovered that he wasn't with mom and dad! Then, I kept him most of the day Saturday, and a little while this morning, so his mom and dad could get some packing done. They only have a few weeks left before their big move. Then, I will be here in my little corner of the world, all by myself. :( Just listen to me pout and whine!! Not a pretty sight, eh? Not looking forward to it. I try not to think of it too much. I'm glad it will be closer to the end of school, so, hopefullly, I won't be mourning too much at school!! I'm completely happy and excited for them, getting to build a brand new, beautiful house, just feeling very sad for myself. I'm going to miss them terribly. I won't be able to walk over and see little Jakob whenever I take the notion too. I won't hear his little hands knocking on my front door. I miss him already. I see lots of trips to Owasso in my future. It's only thirty minutes away, but, right now seems like a million miles away.
