Concentration Kid.

Here he is again, concentrating on his reading. The room is so quiet! He was waiting for his hockey coach and had to finish reading later in the day after this picture was taken. We used to chat in the car all the time but not that he's discovered the joy of reading, he brings a book into the car every time. Now our car rides are even quiet. If I start to talk, he tells me "gramma, stop! I'm reading." All righty then!

Today was busy. We had to be up early to get the grandbaby ready for his hockey evaluation. Mama worked a 12 hour shift last night, so she came home just as we got up. Off to nap she went for a few hours. We fed him, got all his hockey gear ready and then went out to our garage to do more work in it before the snow arrives. Our garage contents are sitting in the POD on our driveway. We had our contractor tape, mud, sand then paint our walls and texture the ceiling of the garage. Looks so amazing now! We ordered a vinyl product that lays flat on the floor and looks great as well. Today we laid the flooring out, placed the large metal shelving unit where dh's workshop will go, and rearranged the few items we do have in the garage. We also washed the windows, then installed 2 of the 3 blinds on 2 of the 3 windows. After grandbaby was picked up, we tidied up, had showers and then headed down the highway to pick up an item I bought off Marketplace. New pieces for my Cream Lace collection of china. I'll post pics at some point. After that drive, we headed back in to the City and met up with mama and grandbaby for his hockey game. We had a lot of fun chatting with the other parents/grandparents and I even got to hold, rock and play with the sweetest new baby. The game was really good, we won 10 to 0 but I did feel bad for the other team. Our kids did really well. After we said our goodbyes, we headed back to our little hamlet, stopped to get water, groceries and then treated everyone to warm hot chocolates from Timmies. By now, the sun we had earlier had disappeared, the clouds moved in and by the time we were heading home, there were some flakes swirling around us as we drove down the highway. Home looked so good when we came down the driveway. Unloaded our groceries and the water bottle, took the garbage bins down the lane and then settled in to make dinner. So yummy, again! And tonight, I've done my mom's laundry, wrote half of a grant for 2020, answered emails and texts, and watched an episode of "Escape to the Country," another of "Unexpected" and once grandbaby is asleep, we're going to head to bed as well to watch the first episode of a new series our son recommended. We just finished the 2nd Season of "Succession" and it was amazing!! Can't wait for Season 3 but that looks like it won't be until sometime next Summer. Such a long wait but it will be worth it in the end.

How was your Sunday?

Busy like ours or restful?
