The other morning the child came down early. 6 AM. Later in the day she mentioned she had been up since about 430. What did you do in bed I asked her. Color! She responded. <br /> For some reason this exchange made me chuckle.

I've been watching a gentleman where my MIL lives in the aged care facility and his passion is jigsaw puzzles 500 - 1,000 pieces. I was actually thinking of getting one myself but to combine the two jigsaws and colouring you must be in 7th heaven.Sue from Sizzling Towards 60 & Beyondhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15418770845484399102noreply@blogger.com
