After 6 years of enjoying retirement, I now find myself more occupied than ever! My daughter has gone back to work after 5 years of bringing up two children, so I am back doing school runs, the shopping and general baby sitting to well after my bed time! I've always done the family ironing, more of a passtime for me than anything, but now my shopping includes spray starch for her work blouses/shirts and blue shoe polish for her shoes , somethings I havent bought for years.
Starting a family on the late side, as is the fashion nowadays, has its drawbacks for the grandparents, because if I was 10 years younger I think I would be more fit to cope.
Though I love to have more time with my two adorable grandchildren, now my life revolves around them but I see they appreciate me more already which is what life is all about.
Back to work
