Very busy today but didn’t get much done. Day started early for me when James didn’t feel good and needed to stay home from school sick. Patty wasn’t sure if he really was sick but he didn’t look good and felt like he was going to throw up. His mother was already at work so Nana had to decide. It is a long day for a first grader like James. The bus leaves here at 7:30 am and he doesn’t get back home on the bus until 4 in the after noon. That is a long day for a little guy and if he is sick at school they call his mother at work to came get him and the school is so far away it takes her longer than a hour to go get him and bring him to me to sit with until she gets out of work. So Mana decided to let James stay home today.
Otis and I had our breakfast and James felt a little better so he had some breakfast too. Then I had to start the spaghetti sauce, today was Wednesday and that means spaghetti. James loves to cook so he wanted to help chop the peppers for the sauce. I gave in and let him help do that but put him right back in bed. By this time he wasn’t sick any more and didn’t want to stay in bed. NOT with this old lady, if you are too sick to go to school you are too sick to play or run around and for a 7 year old staying in bed all day is worse than having to go to school. So he was glad to see his mother come home at 12:30.
After lunch I got to water the plants and started on the new crochet projects. Each month I send into the school for the teachers and the bus driver and Patty’s nurses some small item. Like this month everyone got either a bunny or a chick magnet or pin for Easter. I didn’t know what to make for May and today decided I would make snow flakes. They hang in your window and look so pretty in the sun. They had a good meaning in New Hampshire because there was always a late spring snow storm and these would be the only one we really wanted. Here they are just pretty so I started making those today. I got 8 done and have three weeks to get the rest done before May. I also found something to make for June.
Tomorrow I want to get back to my genealogy and my puzzle and will do both a short time so I can do more snow flakes tomorrow also. So nothing exciting happening here so no one needs to worry about me. Have a good day.
