Today Grammy and I went to do some outreach for my new business Senior Solutions of Ithaca, LLC. We went to Lakeside Nursing home and met with the Marketing Director. Graem would have gone with Margot during this meeting - but Margot had a meeting for work too.

So, I walk into Lakeside with a bundled kid, bottle, and portfolio. Lucia is there to greet me and then we walk in her office to talk. Graem was absolutely perfect for about fifteen minutes. Then she wanted me to put her down so she could walk. She then started to pull up my shirt (as if to nurse). So, now I’m trying to talk to Lucia and I have my belly exposed. Quite the experience I must say!

Then we went to Walmart to get Grammy’s birthday decorations. We had to stop by Wegman’s too and see if they had anything better. When we were at Wegman’s Graem started crying because she wanted down. So I let her walk. Of course while she walks she likes to grab anything off the shelf that is her level and “rearrange”. So she’d pick up one can and put it in a different space. Then she’d grab another can and put it on the floor.

When we got home I was filling out Holiday cards and Bailey must have opened the bedroom door that I had everyone locked in. (I was in there too). The next sound I here is *splash*splash*. I look around the corner to find Graem laughing at her new invention. She’s thrown our cordless phone in the toilet and is now playing with the water.

Even on bad and crazy days like today — it still beats the best of work days! Of course, if you are trying to call us .. please let it ring for a while since we are down one phone!
