I think of you so often, Gayle. It is so hard what you are going through, I can't even imagine it! You are in my prayers, and always in my heart.

I have been busy catching up on things I left undone over the summer. My friends left Labor Day weekend, some came up last weekend, and will be back on October 6th. I'm enjoying getting things done, hanging out with the dogs, and just being by myself. I love my friends, but I also love my time alone.

Some of the things I left to do are a pain in the butt! My Internet Explorer is messed up, and that can take hours to figure out. I think I'll call their support number tomorrow. Maybe they can help me. I bought a refurbished TV for the bedroom, so that needs to be set up. I got a new Kindle Touch, so I gave Mackenzie my old one, which promptly froze. I spent so much time on the phone with Amazon! I just did not want to pay for a new one since I buy so much from Amazon. I even called their corporate office, but only got $10 off. Then, it got lost in the mail. After more hours on the phone, I got a replacement on Monday. Then, guess what was waiting for me at the Post Office on Tuesday? The other Kindle. I am keeping it until I hear from Amazon. Then, I will return it. I'm kind of hoping they let it go. Then, somebody got into my credit card account and ordered $395 worth of stuff from Abercrombie and Fitch!! More phone calls. I don't have to pay for it, which is wonderful! I can't even remember the other phone calls, etc that I have been busy with, but I feel like I am really getting things done.

My land line phones are also dying off one by one. I'll have to get another set of 3 phones, but I just do not want to look at another electronic device for a while!

I have been chatting with Jessie a lot on the phone too. She leaves me to my friends and the pool in the summer. She is also very busy with the kids. She loves to talk to me though! I do not like to spend so much time on the phone, but I have to give her at least an hour, if not an hour and a half. I also do not love hearing all of the little problems the kids are having, but there is just no way around it! Being her Mom involves listening to her worries, and being a Grandma means worrying about the children.

Enough complaining! Actually, life is pretty darned good!
