I had an amazzing deep tissue massage for 1 hour & 45 minutes. Then had a great night out with dh downtown. It's a great weekend! Just getting ready to go to church now.

I'm trying out a new method for cleaning the oven. I usually use baking soda, but I hate having to contort myself to reach everywhere in the oven for lots of rubbing. It's basically: spray the walls and ceiling of the oven repeatedly with a baking soda in water. When all the crud has melted off, wipe out the oven.
I found it here: Eight Easy Steps to a Clean Oven
He has a blog that answers questions about this method: Natural Oven Cleaning With Baking Soda
I will report back how it goes.

That's good. He needs to see that you are doing okay!
Yes, that is so important for him.

As soon as we got to their house, I grabbed him with my good arm picked him up and gave him a big hug. We were good after that.
We acted like real grandparents. Took him shopping and bought him a toy that makes a lot of noise.
When my favourite uncle used to take me out he would buy me chocolate coated raisins...a nice BIG box! I got the nick name "the chocolate coated kid" for obvious reasons!

My daughter told us that when he woke up at 8:00 AM he wanted to know why Grampy couldn't come NOW. He was in no mood to wait.

Next time be there when he wakes up. And bring another loud toy with you. Start a tradition. He loves you, his parents want to kill you.

Just got back from our weekend trip to Cripple Creek. It was wonderful, and the trees were pretty.
Here is the view from the hotel room.
And a sign along the road. The donkeys that run freely in town are said to be related to the ones who worked in the gold mines many years ago.

I'm sure some of his reticence to come and see/help "Grampy" the other day was a fear that you were very sick/injured/changed and he didn't want to see that. He is such a sweetie! And I'm glad you guys had a great time!
I thought only Aunts gave noisy toys...
Chopper, that looks wonderful.

No way! Grandparents want to have fun too.
Besides, SO Keeps buying him clothes. I keep telling her boys hate to get clothes as a gift as every gift of clothing could have been a toy that's now lost forever. I know that's how I felt about it (and still do).
LOL! Both my nephews, who I gave drum sets, kazoos, tambourines, etc., now both play the violin...beautifully!
I drove my Sister nuts, though!
Today is a Labour Day holiday here

A drum set is perfect for his age.
