A Grandfather’s Love, Demonstrated in Freeze Pops

on
As the weather starts to break a bit, we make plans for Spring Break, and I book my kids in a variety of Summer camps,  I am reminded that this summer will be different because we won't have my dad to share the summer with,  My dad kept these on the rotation, in every flavor. Not even sure how he gets them now because I think they are the equivalent of "kid crack"--made with artificial coloring, flavoring, and sugar . To my kids though, these freeze pops were love and summer wrapped in a bow. (As an Amazon associate, I am compensated for qualifying purchases.)

Today was a great day. It was the last day that I could get my car inspected. Fortunately, I was able to do that. YEAH!!! My success did come at a price though. I had to endure the ridicule of the mechanic who chastised me for waiting until the last minute. I wanted to ask whether he thought that he was my father, but I suppressed the urge. It seemed prudent to just endure the ridicule and get what I needed. I also had to endure the Pittsburgh Bus as a mode of transportation to work. Despite those inconveniences, my reward is that I can I now drive down the street without fear of being caught with an expired inspection sticker.

Also, I received a tremendous surprise today. My birthday is on Monday, November 5th. And it looks like I am going to Vegas this weekend to celebrate! I've never been there before so I am incredibly excited. The trip is going to be a present from my boyfriend who continues to demonstrate that long distance does not mean hopeless.

So, as I drift off to sleep tonight, I shall smile. Today was a resounding success! (What can I say, I'm easy to please.)
