 Yep, it's been a few days since I said I was going to start posting again, but truth be told, I'm actually a really boring person.  There's not a lot of action in my life.  I absolutely love this saying.


Right now I'm in the mundane part.  This past week, I wasn't feeling so great so I went to bed early, but I was able to do a lot of reading and got halfway through my books.  I love the poetry in Angela's Ashes.  Especially this one....

Love her as in childhood
Though feeble, old and grey.
For you'll never miss a mother's love,
Till she's buried beneath the clay.

So many people just don't realize how true this is.  My mom is starting to show signs of dementia and I'm doing my best to spend as much time with her as I can.  I just had breakfast with her at the Book Nook and Java Shop in Montague.  It's one of our favorite spots to go and just sit and talk and enjoy coffee.  They have so much more there though.  There's a book club, Jazz nights, and a fully stocked bar.  This is a place you aboslutely have to check out.  It's comfy, cozy, and just an enjoyable place to sit and talk.  



I also spent Saturday afternoon at the Grand Rapids Veterans Home.  I volunteer there and when I'm done I like to go walking and take pictures.  Saturday was a little cold and dark, so I didn't get many, but I love this memorial to 6 soldiers that died in Fallujah.  One of their buddies had a drink with them and I thought it was amazing.  



 





So anyway, I'm working on some adventures to entertain, but until then, it's just mundane.
