Ramblin's

I called Cozy after she got home from school on Monday. She had a wonderful day. We had a great chat and she talked on and on about her day. She had breakfast and lunch at school. Naptime, storytime, recess-which she spent on the slide and in her words, she went "Wheeee!" and then climbed up again and again. They have brand new computers in their classroom and she was excited about that. She was concerned that not everyone knew how to be quiet and listen when the teacher was talking. She likes having lots of choices in the cafeteria line-but has to learn to eat quicker. I learned from Terra this morning that by the time they get through the breakfast line they have less than 5 minute to eat. So she may be having breakfast at home where it's a little quieter and less hectic. Her newest phrase is "and next came.." she will tell me something and then say "and next came..." this became quite funny to follow. Her speech has cleared up alot. This was the first time I could understand everything she was saying. Speech has been difficult for her-but being around other kids her age, as well as getting assistance has helped. She will also be getting speech and resource help in school. I think she has a good chance of getting over some of her disabilities.
I spent yesterday at my parents house helping to sort through things. We worked on the bedroom. It was work-but it was fun as well. Some of what we went through were things that belonged to my grandparents or great grandparents/relatives. Some things dating to the late 1890's and early 1900's. It was interesting and fun. A few of those treasures I brought home.
One item is some crochet in an envelope that said it was 40 years old at that time and it was dated 1937. I have several darning eggs- for darning socks. These days we just go buy new ones! I will have to take some pictures of some of these things and post them for you to see.
In then meantime, we are waiting to hear from the vet this morning about Sam-I-Am. He's been sick for the last couple of weeks and had to have surgery this morning. They think that it's either a twisted intestine or possibly, at worst, cancer. They wouldn't know until they got inside to see. He's a really sweet, affectionate kitty. Loves attention and loves to eat! So, if you would keep him in your thoughts.
Hope you have a great day,
Cheryl
