A visitor

Earlier this week we had a really nice visitor coming over.  It was Craig's mother who he hasn't seen in 20 years and was my first time seeing her before.  She only was going to say for a few days.  We had to pick her up at Burlington Airport which was like and hour and fifteen minutes from home.  I enjoyed her company.  She could talk.  It was really nice to see them two reunited again as they lost touch with each other for a long time.

We went to the Rochester Cafe where Craig and I go often.  Nice food there.  We also went to Woodstock to walk around and have a bite to eat for lunch.  Its been a few months since Craig and I went into Woodstock.  Its a nice small town.   We plan on going there again.  There was a time during her stay that we wanted to take her to the Doc's Tavern which one of our friends owned and a hotel as well.  Of course the time we wanted to go there, it was closed.  We ended up going to the Rochester Cafe again for a bite to eat at the very last minute.  I think we were the last customers there.

There were times that I got nervous on driving all over the place.  But she was really enjoying the drives which is a good thing.   I didn't want to feel like I was a party pooper.  We wanted to show her a good time during her stay.  Most of the nights they stayed up late catching up on alot of things while I went to bed early.  I thought it was good to let them have alone time with each other.

She was happy and delighted to hear all the good things that I had been doing to take care of Craig.  Later on the week I was told that she liked me, which was nice to hear.

We have a box ready for her 3 blankets which I had made, one of them for her grandson and the other two was for her.  I also added a few booklets of crocheting as well as crocheting hooks and some nutcrackers because we found out she loves nutcrackers.
