Today my little one and I drove up to the pharmacy to get my medicine. The one in town has closed so the next closest one is 10 miles away.
My little one was being naughty and I knew she needed a nap so we went for a drive while she slept and I drove down back roads looking for places to hide geocaches.
We stopped at the thrift store in town to see my oldest daughter where she works. I debated on buying the adorable salt and pepper shaker set in the photo I used here for this post. I used to collect salt and pepper shakers but I do not any longer.
After dinner my niece dropped off her son for me to babysit. She was going to play bingo with her sister and mother.
I discovered my great nephew is afraid of a vacuum cleaner and nervous of my husband as well.
My little one was very good with him which I was very relieved as she can be very jealous.

@Judyev yes as a teen I had collections of a lot of things. Over the years I’ve gotten rid of many. I have some decorations around my home but mostly I just collect holiday things to decorate with. After all the kids are grown and moved out I’m not sure if I will decorate at all for holidays.

@BarbaraPrz the top is the Turkey and the bottom its mate is a Dutch oven. I might buy it today for a thanksgiving decoration. It was only $1.50 it’s adorable and hard to resist. I have to go back to buy my son a book so I’ll see if it’s still there. It’s a busy place usually if I debate on something a day or two it’s gone when I go back.

@wolfgirl569 that’s very true so I like the China cabinet where it keeps dust out.

That's an adorable S&P shaker. I don't collect anymore. I'm trying to downsize. Have a good day.

I think you are having a good time with family... I think spending time with loved ones is the best to nourish relationships. Any kids would love to see their parents looking after them and see how proud their parents is because of them.
