Tomorrow I shall become a grandmother again. I told Alan (on Sunday) that Cyndi, our youngest, will have her baby on Wednesday, November 9.
Today she called me and told me that she was having her baby tomorrow, if not sooner. Since it's now 9 p.m. on November 8th, I have no doubt that we could still have a baby today since Cyndi is one of those fortunate women who has babies very easily and very quickly. However, I still think it will be tomorrow, Wednesday, Nov. 9.
I find it so amazing that these days letting a woman go at least two weeks past her due date is not common practice. When I had my children -- all of which were late, by the way -- it wasn't even considered no matter how much one begged their ob-gyn doctor to "please, get this lump out of me." Yes, I was one of those beggars.
My first was a week late, my second was a week late, and Cyndi was almost a month late, or the Army doctors were way off on her due date when I tested pregnant.
Cyndi, my youngest is having another baby! Yippee. I can't wait. It's a girl, by the way, and her name is Savannah.
I'm praying for another easy birthing for her and that she goes into labor before she's induced.

It's me, again
I cannot believe it has been almost two weeks since I posted anything on my BLOG. I have to blame it, once again, on old age aches and pains.
Have I read any good books lately? I know you all want to know. Well, yes, as a matter of fact I have. Nothing heavy, though.
It is, after all, the beginning of the Christmas reading season. So, I had downloaded 30 or so Christmas books that were either free on Kindle or 99 cents -- this was done throughout the last year, since last Christmas.
A couple of weeks ago I read Nicholas Sparks' newest, The Best of Me. Very enjoyable.
I've decided to read a Christmas book one day and a free download from one of the Christian publishers another day. Of course, the beginning of the month gives me a plethora of new material to choose from. It's so much fun.
Alan is getting me the Kindle Fire for Christmas and it's supposed to arrive in a couple of weeks. He won't let me have it before Christmas, and he's going to fiddle with it. I sure hope he doesn't break it or mess it up for me. He hasn't had much success with working with his own Kindle and has me show him over and over and over how to order books or do some of the other things that Kindle does. Funny thing is, he knows how it works, but can get it to work. Same with his computer. Except for Excel, which I can't figure out at all, and really don't want to, he asks me 'how to' questions quite often.
Well, enough rambling for three o'clock in the morning. So I'll say:
