Want to see something scary?
Meet Kirstin, Mia’s American Girl Doll. Steph found her at a yard sale a couple of years ago and she has been loved almost to death!! She recently suffered a serious accident and lost an arm. So today, I boxed her up and sent her to Chicago to the American Girl Doll Hospital. She will return with her arm reattached, wearing a hospital gown and bracelet with a get well balloon. It should take about 2 weeks. This is what Grandmas do!!
We were blessed with some nice warm days for the past week and today it is raining. My urban garden is thriving. I think I will be harvesting some lettuce, soon.
October 12th is my 70th birthday, but, this week-end, I am being whisked away to a luxury mountain house near Mt. Hood so that I get to spend a long week-end with my core family. This was my greatest wish for my birthday. We will hike, play games, eat, drink and be merry. Oh, yes, Miles told me he is bringing a jigsaw puzzle. We love to do puzzles. I do not have to do any cooking!
There is wifi so perhaps I will share some of the frivolity with you. Lisa arrives in the morning, without Wilfredo. It was too expensive to include him. Mark and Jayme are arriving tomorrow night. Needless to say, I am excited!!
What a wonderful weekend you all have planned. Hope you have a great time!
You don’t look a day over 45!

Taking notes . . . Grandmas sent the doll the to the hospital. You are my grandma role model! This is so sweet.
Have a wonderful birthday celebration! See you next week.
the garden looks like it will yield some delicious meals soon. Hope your trip is everything you need to have a great celebration. You deserve it. Have fun!
Have a wonderful birthday celebration!
Gerrie, I wish you a wonderful weekend with your loved ones!
Seems Mia’s cat and doll have something in common! 🙂
Have a wonderful weekend. I agree. Time with family is the best gift of all.
I am so glad you are getting your greatest wish for your birthday. To be surrounded by a loving family is wonderful.
Happy Birthday…a bit early. I know that you are only getting better with age as I am. Have a good weekend with your family. Love the garden…it is doing so well and soon you will be enjoying it.
Oh my goodness, they actually have a doll hospital. I think that is kinda cute – even a gown and bracelet. My two girls have American Dolls too, but now since they are in college the dolls sit on the shelf and collect dust. Maybe someday they will pass them on to their children. You’re a good grandma.
Gramas rock!
Enjoy your long weekend. It sound delightful!
The garden looks fantastic. See you tomorrow!
