Afternoon, overcast but great day for work8mg outside although the skitters like this weather as well.

Hope Lindakay they see the urgency and book surgery asap, as for here bet it would be at least 1/2 year wait. Get some projects ahead so you can sit and recover but not be bored! must be overwhelming for you with all you are dealing with.

What a difference Pat, you must be so overjoyed.. you are a better woman than I because I certainly couldn’t have dealt with all that mess..my neighbours mess that I can see on side of house facing Jamie, the junk yard drives me crazy..i should have had the fence made right to the end of the drive. You sure have achieved an awful lot over the past few weeks, when will you be able to take a break and do something for you.

Susan have you costed out how much for new heating coil? Look forward to seeing your winners photo..you put so much into these community events. I made a pie last night, did lemon meringue, i put it in the oven just to brown the top, honestly, just turned around for a few seconds to wash the bowl I used for meringue and I could smell it..just saved it, well I ate the worse part of it lol

I had taken a break as Marie was here and a worker with orange vest knocked on my door, introduced himself as a paver, gave me his card and asked if i would like a quote to pave my driveway, i said no that I had done the roof last year but maybe next year, he insisted on giving me a quote, wait for it, $11,000 but as I kept saying No he kept putting down the price..best bargain at $8,000. No is no right!!

Had my rest, time to go back out and get more done..in the back area where the picture frame is that little garden has been overtaken by a pretty flower but extremely invasive..i will finish the afternoon pulling it out and maybe transplanting some flowers and a few shrubs

Starting to look pretty, 2 closest to the house where my back deck is a pretty view.
