little things of 2019

Wow...this year whipped by! Time for me to reminisce about a few of the little things that made up 2019.
  • 2019 was a record year for me eating the most chocolate ever! Believe it or not, I actually got to a point where I was kind of sick of eating it! Can this really happen?
  • My nine-year-old granddaughter always keeps me on my toes. She recently asked me how old I was. When I told her she paused, scrutinized me carefully, and replied, "Well, I guess you don't look too bad then...." 
  • On the other hand, my five-year-old grandson isn't concerned whatsoever about age. He wants to marry me. Does that melt your heart, or what?
  • Grocery stores are full of funny stories, or is it just us? Ange and I left our *almost full* grocery cart to walk back an aisle to pick up a forgotten item. No more than two minutes later our cart was no where to be seen. Ange finally spotted a woman wheeling our cart around. He said "Excuse me, but that's my cart." Incredulously, she looked at him and said, "Well if this is your cart, then where's my cart?" Ange answered "How am I supposed to know? I had trouble enough finding my own cart!" The funny part? Up comes her husband wheeling their grocery cart and it only had four items in it! How she could possibly confuse the two carts beats me. Is this what's called senior grocery shopping?
  • I was finally able to purchase 'Pigment of Imagination.' This daylily had been on my wish list for a long while. It's a morphing color-changer and I'm looking forward to seeing it bloom.
  • During August I traveled to England, Wales, Ireland, Northern Ireland, and Scotland. Best time ever, and I loved absolutely everything! (Well, except maybe not the haggis.)
  • At work I received an award, and the awesomeness was that I was nominated by my coworkers.  Warm fuzzies :)
  • What started out as a gag gift turned into a must-have item. One member of our cards group is a super slow dealer (sorry, but it's true).  Just to be funny Ange got a battery-operated card shuffler at a garage sale for $1. Before long all six of us were all fighting over it! No worries...now I'm the proud owner of my very own card shuffler. Who knew?
  • Have any of you watched the HBO series "The Righteous Gemstones?" It takes family dysfunction to a new level - what a hoot!
  • Finally, I think it's worthy to note that no matter what is going on in your life, you can still find plenty of things to be grateful for if you are fortunate enough to own this day.
