Working Hard also It is slow going

Our little beautiful, Great Granddaughter Kendra.
She is a little girl who moved away to Ross, ND
Just to live with her parents.  She likes to be
beautiful and this is the first time I caught her looking
at herself in a mirror .  I would like to know what her thoughts are.   Happy 3rd Birthday to our little Kendra, We love her and brother Chance. 
Friends and my dear family I am behind in my packing but I have to sit in my favorite chair and close my eyes for a quick nap.  I will make it for I always do and there is to much at stake,  Thanks for your interest and keeping up with me even if I do not post everyday.  Back to business after an a little nap.

Welcome to the adventures of planning my trip to Europe

This will be a quick update of my up and coming trip to Europe.  Today was deciding, if I wanted to buy a ipad 3 or a light computer well maybe the ipad is the best investment I have 4 computers.  The netbook was way to heavy for me to carry around.  Next came the case, do I want the keyboard??  Must decide soon.  Now it is the locks for the luggage on the train any suggestions for that decision? 
Life was so much simpler when I went to Europe the first at age 22 and returned at 23 we had no ipads and the information about  traveling came from a travel agent, brochures.  No internet!  I love the quick way to know anything you desire to know.  Guys, got to to hit the bed before sunrise and I must stop sleeping in my chair or I will not beable to look up and see the beautiful old magnificent churches.   Please pray for Rain or we will have to give up watering our new yard again.   Watch for my post tomorrow.  Please feel free to comment.    Please sign up to follow me.  Stay cool, beverley
