Why "old" people don't have children

They say that youth is wasted on the young.  Well, let me tell you that there is one thing that the young can have, and that is raising a family.  I had three children in just under five years, and I don't remember it being such a challenge!  I had both my grandsons and Emma inside the rig today, and it was a circus.  One at a time, they are manageable for me, but not together.  My rig is not childproof, and Seth found every button, knob, and switch to mess with.  That was while his brother, Joseph, started throwing dog toys through the air.  Guess what that did to Emma, the wild child!  I will not comment on how any of my kids raise their children, but suffice it to say that two little boys were escorted out of the rig.  I'm too old for that kind of shenanigans!

My son, Andy, got home from work a little early today, so I snatched him up for a couple of pictures.

He is on active duty with the National Guard.  Such a handsome young man!  (personal bias, of course)

This is his serious Sergeant look.  He is proud to be serving, and I am proud of him.   He and his family are off to a cookout with Kelly's relatives, so Emma and I are just chill-in', and recuperating from the day's onslaught of grandchildren.  :)  By the way, the sun did finally shine today.  Yahoo!

I've been thinking about how I'm going to transfer everything from this rig to the new one, if I decided I like it.  (I know... there's not much doubt about that, but I had to put in a qualifier just in case.)   I plan to ask them if I can drive the new, to me, rig to Andy's driveway and spend a couple of days making the transfer before driving my present rig back to the dealer's.  It's not like I can run off with two vehicles by myself, and I have been a customer of theirs for many moons.  It would also give me a chance to do a thorough cleaning job with my present rig while it's empty.  I hope they go for that idea.  It would sure be a lot easier on me than emptying out this rig to the garage, and then making the transfer.  I'm keeping my fingers crossed.  :)

Thanks for stopping by....talk to you later,  Judy
