Finding joy in life, one day at a time!
Grandma Ruddell….aka Sherry Ruddell, lives in Ft. Worth, TX. She loves to play with her Grandkids and do craft projects with them. Grandma loves to cook and create new recipes, do gardening, travel, organize and redo her house, and TRY to exercise. She’s hoping that she will exercise more, since she is walking her new dog, Bill. Grandma tries to find moments of joy in her everyday life.
I’m sitting here, in my house, writing my first blog….
I am sitting here, in my house, writing my first blog. I’m so glad you are here and hope you will stick around! My husband, Dick, has travelled to Denver for a few days. He’s attending a conference, and they are working a ski trip in for some of the attendees. Sounds like hard work, huh? But it’s a nice change of pace from our last few weeks in Ft. Worth, where it’s been raining most days.
I’m at that stage in life where I’ve retired from teaching and am concentrating on getting my house organized and my body in shape. Does anyone else out there have trouble being organized in your house or life? It’s getting better around here. I’ll have some photos up soon of some of my projects.
Grandparenting is my big love! We feel so blessed to have three wonderful grandchildren. I am “Grandma” and my hubby is “Boppa”. Our oldest two grandchildren live about four hours from us. We get to see them occasionally. The energy level certainly goes up when they are here! I’m hoping to share some of our craft projects and activities with you. Our youngest grandchild lives about 15 minutes from us. We keep him on Tuesdays and Thursdays. He is 18 months old and on the go!
Today, we picked out a new dog from the Humane Society. Bill is a black lab and so far, seems to be a great dog. We had debated for a long time about what kind of dog we wanted. We knew we wanted a big dog. Dick wanted a yellow lab. I wanted a black lab, but a girl…didn’t want pee all over the house. Well…we adopted a black, male lab. He’s about 2 years old and seems to be house trained. We are going to share him with my daughter and hubby. When we’re gone, they’ll keep him. Primarily , he will be here.
Life is very good for us. How is your life? What stage of life are you in? Let me know about you, in your comments.
