Still hot and humid

Like I said in my last blog, I have been busy with the grandson and family. Shopping, Movies, errands and watching my grandson in his swimming lessons and gymnastics. He does have alot of energy that I sure wish I had. Even got to have him allllll to myself when the parents went out a couple of times to have some alone time.

Went to a ATV place and got to go on a ride, as well a drive. . My son n law took me through a deep water ditch, so the ride wasn't a clean one. He did get me to screem, so that was fun for him as well as me. My daughter and I went for a ride and she let me drive too, but it was more fun ridding along. We had a good time there, even had a pic nic lunch, and now looking for a closer area for the next adventure.

Trying to get this Blog done today/last night it didn't go, and it didn't save what I wrote???
Went to a couple movies on my list to see. Shopping for some shorts for the Hot weather here. Even picked up a iPod for music while I walk. My daughter even got me cought up on putting my pictures from my camera and thumb drives on my Book (external hard drive) It would have taken me a month but in about 4 hours its all done. Now she going to teach me to scan all my OLD picture albums. The teaching part might take awhile, with this slower brain. I guess after I learn it, it won't be a scary.

Went with my grandsons family to SC. I did a ride along with a nascar driver TOM Car # 2. Its not his normal race car, these cars are past race cars that have been rebuilt or schools to teach and ride alongs. Got all suited up and put the helmet on. They strapped me in and away we went. At first the driver thought I was in the school part, so he only went around 2 laps, so went another 3 laps, pulled over again and then I told him I was a 10 lap ride, so away we went again. Even fast than the other times. My son n law went as well and his driver thought he was a 5 lap ride along, so when he got his last 5 laps he rode in car #2 and he said that driver drove alot faster. What a day. The grandson eveb got to ride in car #16 to go around and get gas put in and when he got back he had the biggest smile on his face. Got good pictures and a couple movies that my daughter did.

There was a storm last nite that there were less than 3 seconds before the thunder hit after the lightning. I was a little uneasy, not afraid.. Its even been raining on and off this morning. Well can't remember all I wrote last nite but will think about it and get it in the next blog.

Remember to tell the one's you love, that you love them often..

till next time Carrol

Hi Carrol, Just read your newest blog. Sure enjoy them. Keep having fun & enjoying your family. Sounds like you have been real busy. The weather here for a couple of weeks or more was from 105 to 109. Miserable. Now it is cooled down to the 90s. Miss you. Love Jessie
