Afternoon, (says Betty) kept myself busy today..had 2 little ones which took 9-1pm,quick trip to Midland, treated myself to a chainsaw, while reading the instructions I read there is a kick back when putting it in the. Limb..yikes, guess it will sit til someone who visits says I’d clear some of those limbs if I had a chainsaw then I can say ‘ta da’ here you go.

Sat for 1/2 hour with Marie and Ted, Lordy they have a lovely sitting area at the front corner of my property lol

I hadn’t used the weeder in a few weeks, yard seemed to have grown twofold so got my loppers out and trimmed the flowering crab apple and a few other shrub/trees then weeded so you have to know I am paying for it so before coming to bed took some cbd/thc .. just climbed into bed as did Ziggy, but hopefully it will ease the pain.

Hollow, your 1st name please?? I had to laugh when you mentioned entertaining the young ones 😜, i travelled with2 sister-in-law and we’d travel all over USA. But a year before starting, Suzanne (SIL) and I drove to New Orleans, our base was few blocks from Bourbon Street, neither of us gals drink but can have fun without. there were college students from Texas. They’re having the greatest time at one of the bars. A few of them saw my foot moving to the music and asked me to dance before you knew it. I was one of the crowd and so was Suzanne had the biggest laugh out of them, and they so enjoyed our company as they drink, they got a little overzealous, and the one guy wanted to lift me in without my knowing grabbed me by the ankles..luckily Susanne saw what was happening and managed to support my head from the cement floor. Needless to say remaining week was not fun, think this shoulder problem has a bit to do with that night of fun.

Sorry to hear about your weather, and yes, all out into the garbage the meat and freezer food must go. About 35 years ago most of Ontario lost power for about a week, hard going. Hard going with your boys but am sure they get lots of loving from your wife and you.

Pat, was watching the news, airlines must have a lot of upset customers, Mother Nature sure is unhappy lately, our weather here has been most unusual. Funerals are expensive even when you plan it to be minimal cost. Hard also when most of the time it’s not by invitation. I am sure it will do Phil proud. I cannot believe you said you weren’t a great housekeeper or did I read that wrong..cannot believe that. Is the funeral tomorrow? Hugs

Lindakay, how is Kathy doing today, only a few more days and you will be home, bet you are not anxious to leave. Is her hubby still alive, does she have children in same town?

I’m worried about Karen as well..

Susan glad your camera system is installed, waiting for John to come but both he and Darlene have been unwell. Weatherman says our week forecast is mostly rain and storms, hope not so in your area as I believe you were going camping..you must be well organized as what to bring, you sure are brave.

Deb, saw Tanya my niece this afternoon, she had tea in hand and was starting her shift as pharmacist but had time to show me photo of her new puppy, the picked him up Friday, they have no children so can just imagine how spoilt this boxer will be, says likely 55lbs when fully grown. What is the normal full grown weight of your breed.

Sharon, what is your weather like today… you must soon be transitioning to fall planting soon?sorry to hear the great grands have colds and you can’t see them yet.
Emma must be enjoying cooler temps. Have you spoken to new neighbours yet?

Dianne, i haven’t looked yet at what weather you are having, hope not the rain that is suppose to start tomorrow. I heard a few advertisements for fall fairs, imagine. Love the Lincoln Lawyer series, think I’ve watched it all nut new season should be out soon. What other series has caught your attention.

Wonder how Judy and Liz are doing?

Young Lily finished her horse throw, she goes riding a few times a week so when I got cut out horse blocks I knew she would enjoy making something with them..she has worked on it for 5 lessons so 10 hours, she took it home today.

Not sure if I posted the block (need 12) for the throw I’m making for living room, drats, buy a new rug and it leaves one to have to add coordinating items or it doesn’t fit in.

Came to bed and now I’m hungry so up I go
