I'm free! Drove yesterday and did just fine, was mostly on main roads which were quite clear but sure is cold here. Nice not to have to ask people to drive me places!

Yesterday went to arrange for rescue to take in a sweet little sheltie- medical issues in family and those currently looking after him cant keep becauseof allergies ,just as well we have the dog because poor fellow is severely overweight. Has been on a diet and walking 2-3 times a day for past month by current owners so wewill keep that up and hope to get some of the weight off. He is almost completely white with bue eyes.

Today I am finally going to pick up my antique dutch wall pendulum clock. Took it for cleaning etc in November and then I was in hospital when he called to say it was ready! And going to leave my antique ladies watch for him to work on. It belonged to my grandmother and I wear it at Lougheed House. There are serial numbers on both the case and the watch and I have been able to date it to about 1905 which is rather neat since the style of clothes we wear is circa 1900!
