New hobby

I decided I want to try out a new hobby. I want to get a program to do some digital scrap booking. I want to make a scrap book for my mom for when she goes in the nursing home and it might even be good for making some cute baby shower invitations.

I’d like to make a book for each of our grandkids too. It’s something they can save and show to their kids, when they have some later on.

I’ve been checking out reviews of such programs and found a good one for under $40. But all this will have to wait until I move and get my stuff out of storage so I can scan old photos to put in mom’s book.

Shopping with little ones

Shopping with little ones isn’t an easy feat. You either have to try to fit some kind of seat with a restraining device into the seat of a shopping cart or put the child in a stroller. If you choose the latter then you’ll need someone else with you to push the shopping cart.

If you have a Maclaren stroller then you can use the mesh basket that is attached to the stroller, if you don’t need to purchase too many items.

When my kids were little it was a real struggle to shop with them. Back in the 70′s they just didn’t have the neat things for kids that they have now.

Romantic dinner for 2

It’s always nice to have a romantic dinner for 2. Pack up the kids and ship them to a relative or babysitter for an overnight stay. Prepare hubby’s favorite meal, turn the lights down low, light candles, pretty yourself up, put on your hot lingerie, pour some wine and watch the excitement happen. Hubby’s eyes will light up and it will give him something to remember for a long time.

Put some spark in your marriage. Every relationship needs something like this once in awhile.
