Oh, Vee...that just happened with a couple of mine....the groom's grandmother 'tried', fought to stay with them for the wedding in June, but sadly passed away 2 weeks ago....I was so happy that my Mom got to see our DD married...I hope your Dad stays well...it helps to have something like a wedding to keep one going!!

Thanks Lynn, he is a very healthy 72 year old lol he walks about 15-20 km a day (think the shopping mall in NS, to four corners and back lol), he eats well and takes really good care of himself. He actually looks about 55 ppl are always shocked when I say no past 70 haha
But of course I am a worry wart so I always worry about my parents...

I'LL say he's healthy!! I'm proud of myself if I get a single km in!! Now and then!
I really envy people who don't have to cope with arthritis and fibro...I know it slows me down and sometimes I really feel my age. I try to ignore it, but...sigh...I really feel it sometimes...
I'm so happy he's in such good shape...lordy he'll be jitter-bugging at your wedding!!

Hiya peeps! After 9 months of scrimping and saving I FINALLY get to put my car on the road (pending the e-test)... I'm so freaking excited!!!! It's been so hard and I've had to go without a lot of things but I'll finally be able to get a job Actually, I already booked a casual job... my best friend hooked me up with one of her clients that's looking for respite care for a week in June. If all goes well, I'll be able to work for them more after the week is up. Things are finally looking up and I'm SO HAPPY!!!!

[gracesmommy]

congrats sheets!! i'm happy for you!
i just applied today to part time cashier job at a local building/lumber center. they say on the jobbank that they'll offer flexible hours which would be fantastic. fingers crossed at this end too!

[sheetsofemptycanvas]

Fingers crossed for you gracesmommy!!!

Morning all! The sun is shining but it's COLD!!! I'm glad I brought my plants in last night!

[Natalka]

Good luck to those of you looking for work!

So glad we had a rain overnight!



Day three with no hot water heater... gah!

[Lynn49]

Good EARLY morning, everyone!
Natalka...how awful; I hope someone is on their way to fix it today!
Not the sunniest of days, but going up to 11...not the summer we've had, but it had better start planning its return!
Off for my diet breakfast...
Have a lovely day, everyone!!!

Natalka...I saw something on Dr Oz about taking this supplement before bed in order to get a relaxed night of sleep...there was a gal on there that reminded me of you and they told her how not getting enough quality sleep is affecting her and that this was to help from the first time she took it....I'm going to grab a coffee and breakfast, but I'll look it up for you later...it had a very unusual name! Toodles!

morning peeps.

[danger_dan]

Sheets, Nat, Lynn, Darth, morning ladies

Darth, just say your QOTW...going to answer now.

[gracesmommy]

morning everyone. well, dropped dd1 off at school this morning and we're back to standing at the fence screaming and crying not wanting to go in. she had gotten so much better the past 2 months or so, now we're right back to square 1. gah. i'll write the teacher a note again and ask if anything has changed/new teacher/ea perhaps. she's so shy that everything sets her off. poor thing. although i did get a bit of a laugh, dd2 was with me this morning dropping gracie off and when she started crying again claire said 'ohhhh no, not again!!' hehe

[gracesmommy]

very sunny outside today, covered my plants last night - booo frost! i saw on the news that a few of the apple orchards here had hired helicopters to fly over them to keep the air moving so no frost (last year they lost 80% of their crop).
