Journaling Friday my son and DIL wanted to go out. So they asked if I’d be able to babysit. Of course I did. She has a couple of new toys we played with. I sang the Marine Corp hymn. Never too early to start. (note to self; need to find a copy of the riflemen’s creed). Tried to get her to say mama, feed her changed her and put her to bed. Then stayed awake until I was relieved. (General order 1, 2, 5.) Gave report and went to bed myself. They did not get home until after 0 dark 30 and a good time was had by all.
Saturday I disappeared from home for most of the day. I visited two RV dealers to look at toy haulers, and visited a flea market where my nephew works.
At dinner my DIL paid me a complement when I remarked that it is within the purview of a grandparent to spoil their grandchild just a little bit. She said ”JS I am good with that because you understand what a boundary is.”
Sunday my DIL left to visit her father for a few days taking the baby with her, leaving my son and me to fend for ourselves. Sooooo, we visited a local sporting goods store, the local warehouse club, and I showed him where the closest vehicle inspection station was then pizza for dinner and a movie.
Today one of my co-workers asked me during a discussion when did you become a glass half full person?
Of course there was a little drama this weekend. I need to have XW sign over title to my truck and she is poking at me a bit about money. It will all work out and if it doesn’t it is of little consequence in the grand scheme.
BITS Me 55, ACK, when did that happen? Doesn't feel like 55 D 30 S 27
