My sister is coming to visit me today!! I have cleaned my house, just need to mop the kid's play room real fast-shouldn't take long.

I like having company over, b/c it makes cleaning a lot more fun for some reason. I will get to see some of my favorite nephews this afternoon. 7 months, and almost 3 yrs.

I spanked/spatted my 3 year old nephew one time he visited me, but his Mommy had left, and I had permission to punish. He threw a major fit b/c the dog walked into the other room. I think that phase in his life has dwindled down.*I hope. WE'll see, I guess this weekend.

My mom and Granny are coming into town tomorrow!!! We are all going to go to the town's annual festival. You can get anything on a stick there. Fried oreos(yuck), fried twinkies(yuck), my baby's favorite is a classic funnel cake. I am thrilled that my Granny is coming with Mom, b/c she spends her day at the nursing home with my grandfather lingering with Parkinson's. She loved events like this before she was a caregiver, and maybe this will be a nice break out of the normal daily grind sitting at the nursing home with her spouse.
