What do I think

I am setting this blog up to prove that age has nothing to do with how I feel about most things. Being a grandmother does not make you a blithering idiot who is too old to cut the mustard. Actually being a grandmother makes me feel younger. I met someone today who did not know who Sponge Bob is - I know - as I have had to sit through many of those shows. Now when it comes the the music groups - I am not as knowledgeable - and I am sure glad there is spell check on this blog - but I can hold my own in most instances.
One of my grandson's had autism - thus I am very versed in that condition, and feel frustration that I cannot help him more. I give moral support to my daughter and research the web for new information to share with her. I used to take him to swimming classes and to gymnastics, but he feels he is too old for that now. More on him at a later time.
Tomorrow I am in conflict as 2 grandsons have games at the same time. How do you spread yourself that thin? They are in different cities - but you do not want to play favorites. The youngest one is going to win out - not for favoritism but because of the need of his mother. This grandson has 2 sisters younger than himself and a father who will be working during this game - thus my daughter needs gramma's help with the other 2 - plus she talked me into bringing dinner. Boy they can really get me to volunteer for things. This does not have anything to do with my age or mental weakness - as I have always been glad to help out my daughters.
One thought I have is that it is really nice to be needed. Being a widow and living alone - with my dog - it is a nice feeling that I still have enough smarts to be asked favors of. They even STILL call and ask my advice on things - not that they follow it - but they still ask and discuss things with me.
This being my first time blogging I do not really know how much to share. I did go bowling today - I was awful. Just could not do anything right. We did end up splitting 2 points each - no thanks to me. It was a fun team to bowl so in all it was a great time.
I will blog more tomorrow.
