Pleased to hear you and your sister will now be able to play..put those $$$ away and when border opens you can come for a visit and Debbie could also come..wouldn’t that be nice..
note, all are always welcome.

tell me about neighbors and spoiling the view...I spent mega $$ having a fence erected..for awhile he was purging and cleaning up the yard but that went by the wayside..fence was the answer, we can be friends..I have a nice area to decorate and I don’t fight re mess..

Now my back neighbour who has a painting shop is the one who basically cut down 75ft of forest to make a parking lot is very co-operative, I mentioned to one of the worker that when I have a bonfire I water all down but the nice boat he parked nearby could have sparks lay on the back cushions..later that day they moved it..I see a bunch working all day, yesterday I noticed right to the back of my shed they had erected one of those canoe garages..wasn’t terribly bad, still better than the mosquito infested swamp, this morning they moved it to an area not visible..hurrah for them..must go thank them. I’m planting a row of trees on tree line but likely I’ll be long gone before they completely close off area.

Jim a co-worker in Toronto had asked if I would make him a family name pillow for his brother and also a golf towel for him..that was today’s projects..my niece called to say the wedding placemats and pillow were much appreciated, not sure I posted the pillow?

LINDA just called me, she has been redoing her laundry room, project from hell..her washer went on the fritz so she bought a washer/dryer set set meant carpentry work..the base for the units have been 2 months in the shipping..units couldn’t be installed until she received them..finally got them..because her hubby 78 can’t do much re help the neighbours decided to come over and paint the laundry room for them..mega job, while out looking for cupboards her neighbour fell, could move for a few days, nobody helped her up because of Covid....imagine..

Friday they went to the city and bought upper cupboards and were installing them, poor Dave went downstairs to see how it looked, overturned the paint can..didn’t notice and walked up the stairs and through the living room..nobody in that household it happy, shaking my head.. I feel so bad for David, he must be feeling terrible.

LINDA might come this week, she wanted to make, with my help 2 baking sets, apron/hats and oven mitts..wanted their name on the hat..maybe tomorrow I will cut out the hats and before we make them embroider the hats with grandsons names.p, give her something to smile about.

Still early in the day, still in Jammie’s and I believe I’ve accomplished much..all that cotton has been washed and put away so am thinking maybe a nap would do me good...we will see!
