Greetings

20 minutes ago I began a post that I was pretty happy with. I looked up and it was gone. That has happened twice now. I can feel the frustration building like bloodpressure. I shall try once more. This week-end we began work on Cadys room. The baby will be here before we know it. Last week at her monthly Dr appt she was changed to every 2 weeks. I love that. It signals that the time is soon and get a move on. Joe tore out the book cases that took up much room in her tiny space. The next thing is to move out the dogs. I expect there will be some sad eyes looking my way when the gang is not sleeping in a room with their beloved Cady. She decided she wants Beatrix Potters Peter Rabbit as her nursery theme. I love that. We have been Pooh Beared to death. Mostly due to my love of the old boy. I still have my big ol bear from the age of 10. A friend from church gave Cady her Peter Rabbit crib sheets and comforter. I found a diaper stacker on ebay for a few $ and it looks very sweet. I found a lovely old white dresser with glass knobs and a mirror that I want to buy. If there is any room for it maybe. I am thinking of painting the ugly old wood floors too. I found a sweet blog called Posy and she did her floors that way and it is wonderful. I am very fond of all things old and cozy looking. I could do my entire house in pinks and lace and flowers. I have found so many new ideas at Posy. I cannot wait to get to work.
In other news ,my wonderful husband promised me we could go to the Joe Cocker concert in Ruidoso. I was sure this would be like all the other concerts I wanted to go to. With his new job we can finally afford a few things. Then we realized that he would not be able to be home in time. He surprised me and got online and ordered 2 tickets anyway. My ex, Jody ( we lived together in 69,70,and 71 in Calif) lives in Lubbock Texas. Joe told me to take Jody if he can get here. We have been working on this for weeks now. Jody just called to let me know he won't have to hitch hike. He got his car up and about. I am so excited. Jody and I have not been to a concert together since we saw Fleetwood Mac and Mountain in San Bernardino in 1970. Joe got us good tickets up front and in the middle. This time there will be no L.S.D. involved but I am sure we will have much fun. I think my husband is one great guy to send me on a date with my old sweetheart. As I mentioned in an old post, Jody and I are like brother and sister. He calls me each year on the birthday of the little boy we had that passed away. Our kids only just realized that they are not blood kin. Jody has a daughter that is exactly that same aage as Cady. Jody just found out that she is pregnant also. She is 10 wks behind Cady. It's funny how life turns out. Jody was pretty awful to me back then. He had girlfriends coming to the house looking for him. I was always crying and upset. Through the years we have grown close and like I said, we are family. I will stop now as I am afraid that this post will disappear too. leaving some recent pics of Cady and grandkids.
