Enjoy those moments of alone time - sooner than later they won't be moments, but passing of chunks of time. Okay, with my oldest being 14, maybe I dont know that exactly just yet, but I'm trusting my mum on this one. I moved away from Seattle at age 23, now I'm 38 with three grandkids she is watching grow in pictures!<BR/><BR/>Blessings,<BR/>JOTSarah - Kalahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17877449375576975508noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2141379598781628847.post-49017424278304284362008-05-07T23:49:00.000+01:002008-05-07T23:49:00.000+01:00I dont have kids and stress still sneaks in ... a...I dont have kids and stress still sneaks in ... as for the new summer frocks .. feh ... :-<A HREF="http://onthem104.blogspot.com/" REL="nofollow">Daryl</A>Darylhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08241795455748298624noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2141379598781628847.post-87535082972993766012008-05-07T23:46:00.000+01:002008-05-07T23:46:00.000+01:00I often have to remind myself that one day they wi...I often have to remind myself that one day they will be gone, and I will miss them terribly! <BR/><BR/>But it sure is nice to have a breather now and then!<BR/><BR/>As for the fashions, I agree! I am not at all pleased with what I've found. What is the deal with the criss-cross fronts on blouses, with no modesty piece! Why do the "fashion-powers that be" think that we all want to show everything we have?????!!!!!!<BR/><BR/>Also, the bold horizontal stripes - I lived through the 80's once. No need to go there again. <BR/><BR/>--rRenaehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13201000611533977428noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2141379598781628847.post-83288454308943618292008-05-07T22:32:00.000+01:002008-05-07T22:32:00.000+01:00Everyone needs a stress free day once in a while!Everyone needs a stress free day once in a while!ChrisBhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06958330170295676200noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2141379598781628847.post-39423502583144698332008-05-07T22:27:00.000+01:002008-05-07T22:27:00.000+01:00Glad you had a lovely stress free day!
