MEMAW & SKYPING

Who ever invented skyping - I thank you! My name is Memaw.
At least to my four wonderful grandkids, anyway. My actually
name is Pam Bush.
I got married when I was 18, had our first child, Rhonda Kaye
at the age of 19 and our son Paul, at 20. Of course, I assumed
they'd follow in my footsteps by marrying early and providing
me with grandkids while I was still young. I had visions of competing
with Tammy Wynette. Not!!! Would you believe our two kids
waited until they were pushing 30 before getting married? By
then, one was living in KY; the other in IN; with me in Michigan.
I do have to give them credit though, they did start providing us
with grandkids quite quickly. I think Rhonda & Gretchen's
biological clocks were ticking overtime! Within five years we had
four grandkids; now ranging from 6 to 4.
That's were skyping comes in! My hubby, Tom & I love, love, love
sitting in front of our camera talking live to our grandkids! It's
such fun and helps us feel more a part of their lives with so many
miles separating us.
So those of you who are grandparents and aren't skyping yet . . .
give it a try. I promise you'll love it as much as we do!

MICHIGAN BLIZZARD 2011

This is what it looked like after Tom

pushed the snow away from the porch

with the back door, shoveled his way to

the garage and got out the snowblower.

Today the sun is shining beautifully and everything looks so white and clean!

BUT, this morn the temp was

-10 degrees. Although now it's all the

way up to 26 degrees.

I don't know about you but I do love

the winters in Michigan.

Of course - I'm not the one out there

doing the work either, am I!?! :)
