P to U, Thank You

P is for Paul , celebrating my birthday with me. Q is for a quilt-looking sea turtle large beach towel my sister sent me as a birthday gift. I love it. It will be perfect for Hawaii. R is for a relaxing day off with my grandson accessible via face time. He is playing with a filter here, a sparkly face mask? S is for my silly grandson. Here, he makes me laugh. T is for digital toys using the screen. If it's grandma on the other side of the screen, I think, we can allow more time. U is for just the two of us. My grandson is not too happy with the news that the new sibling will be a girl. I am trying to bank some just to two of us time, for in four months, we will be busy with a baby. V is for my forever valentine , birthday, and all holidays date who is also my foodie buddy.   W is for the wonderful cartoon filters that remove wrinkles automatically. :)

Oh What a Beautiful Morning, Oh What a Beautiful Week

Pictures of a Gratitude book, a funny book on butts, a happy baby after the butt issue. Things to be thankful for.

Hello. It is a busy happy week. I have many things to be thankful for. Here are some:
  • Free audiobook to listen to from Denver Public Library. This week I have The Grateful Life on my virtual shelf, accessible anywhere with my phone.
  • A smile from seeing a book for kids, however odd. It is a book about butts. Speaking of butts, I fixed baby Josiah's constipation. He was screaming in pain as he could not pass the darn, you know? His mom was crying too as she handed him to me. My daughter (auntie), said, "Thank goodness, he has a nurse grandma!" 
  • The after picture of Josiah, already smiling after "the incident."
  • Baby prune juice and food to prevent future constipation.
  • Church service online for the times I do not go. Today I virtually attended Alamo Church Community Church service in Texas.
  • Date night with Paul trying a different restaurant. I had shrimp tacos with Baja sauce. Yum.
  • This is a big one. I won a scholarship to a big nursing convention in Indiana. This is for the largest nurse specialty group I am proud to belong to, the American Association of Critical-Care Nurses.

Gratitude blog for simple things to help conquer big problems.
  • A walk in the park. It is 52 degrees. Warm enough.
  • Laptops to get school and work done. Is it a blessing (or not) that we can take "the work" home? This week it is a blessing.
  • Window stick ons for easy, clutter-free Valentine's month decorating. We needed to replace the Christmas decor and our windows were looking bare without replacements.
  • I smiled when I saw some beers in the store named after me! Sour peach beer, anyone?

    Congrats on the scholarship! Very cool. And, 52 degrees, funny how relative comfort(able temperatures) can be... we had similar temperatures on Saturday. Felt like spring.

    Yep! Prune juice is an old and tried remedy when all else fails. Glad Josiah is all smiles again.

    I've only had shrimp tacos once, and they were delicious.

    That is so exciting that you won a nursing convention scholarship! Congratulations!
