This is the latest pic I have of downtown Calgary

That is insane! One of my coworkers his wife was just sent to Calgary she works for a news station.

HOLLY! That's incredible!! How sad and horrible.....all we can hope is that it recedes very soon and that no one is seriously hurt by it...things, yes, probably, but people...no...

Vee...great stuff re your photographer..it'll be lovely to see some of those pics! I'm so sad for my couple tomorrow; their outdoor wedding may have to be indoors in the big dining tent...it's happened before with a couple, and it was still lovely, but certainly not as sweet at that sunshine at a wedding ceremony! I'm conducting their rehearsal later today...

Sunshine, so happy your DD's fever broke; there's nothing quite as frightening as a child who's ill....I hope that's the end of it and that she'll be bright as a new penny soon! Although...I guess that little expression goes out the door! hahaha!!

[Natalka]

So very sick of being sick.... yeah, I know it's just some sort of flu, but it's just so icky...

[Lynn49]

Ugh. Summer flu. How insensitive of it to strike you now!! Hope you're way better tomorrow, Natalka!

I'm off to sleep....we babysat our grandson while his daddy was in the Relay for Life and our DD in still in Washington...she phoned and said it's THE most amazing place! She was awe-struck by the Lincoln Memorial, and of course the Vietnam memorial wall...she even found someone with my maiden-name on it (which is a tich unusual)...she took lots of pics so I'm anxious to see them and bought me the Smithsonian book which has all the exhibits in it, many of which she saw before her atta-girl stuff got started for her work.
All I want is for her to land safely here tomorrow...she missed her little guy as much as he misses her...but he and I did a 'craft' earlier this evening, and he's very proud to show it to hie Mom tomorrow. Oh! And, LOL....he was on the "honour roll" in JK! Really??! There's an honour roll in JK?? Good thing daddy was there to take pics!

Anyway...wedding tomorrow then a block party where we used to live, and where our Dd and her family live now...fun times!!

Have a wonderful weekend everyone...I hope you all receive what you need, be it rest or excitement....just stay safe...Hugs, Me!

Thanks Lynn - I woke up feeling rather decent this morning - hope it lasts!

Happy Caturday, all!

[Granger]

Wasn't away of Calgary. Thanks friends for keeping me abreast of the news. It is jaw-dropping. Hope our SCers in the area a staying safe.

I have been in my own little world of "Grade 8 graduation." Busy making preparations for that and packing up my classroom for the end of the year.

Reading lots, commenting less, due to time. Love yas all!

Have an awesome weekend!

[Lynn49]

Lol, Granger...hubby SO disliked filling out those "comments" when doing reports; the ones he had to 'check off' sometimes didn't met the student's criteria, then thinking of something to write for each one was draining...much coffee was consumed!

Happy Saturday, everyone!!

Good Morning

Hoping everyone has a lovely Bunday!

Still raining here... gah!

Sorry about your rainy weather, Natalka....but PLEASE tell me this flu only lasts a day!!!!

[Natalka]

Lynn, the off and on fever and barfing lasted pretty much only 24 hours; nausea somewhat longer, but still dealing with tummy issues - things just ain't right gurgling around down there.... and it leaves me with a general malaise... as my limbs and head feel heavy and muscles all wonkylike.

Good news, though - the sun has found us! Hope it lasts for the day!

my word what a weekend so far, yesterday was 'supposed' to be go to free sale, come home work on list.. pftt went to free sale, hit 10 more garage sales, then went to closing sale of shoe store(nothing), then to market to pick up some sausage and fruit/veggies, then to TSC for dirt, then to NF's for groceries, by the time we got home it was dinner time.. so much for getting anything done.. *SIGH*
anyway DH DID install our A/C last night so a fantastic night sleep, great start to today. lots of little things planned for today. so far great weather for it. dinner is in the Crockie.. dessert will be next.
