Calmness is the cradle of power--and-- We have power now!

 AND----- WE HAVE THE POWER! ---- on my favourite day--TO_DAY!----We even have sunshine--with 6 ft of snow everywhere! ----  AND, it is GOOD FRIDAY and we are invited to have dinner over at Son#4's house----  so---- 

It might even warm up---as the day progresses-- (It probably won't but  it sure is a good thought!)-

What a difference a day makes eh?---I feel renewed--It feels good to feel calm--more in control of my mind----The past 2 days  made me feel like I was in a tizzy--awful feeling--

So, Son #2, the Pilot, is almost to Brazil--He flew all night--Toronto--- to Brazil----3 pilots---- I suppose pictures of food will be sent shortly---  What do people in Brazil eat??-- He will surely let us know!  

It looks like such a large city!

I have ice to try to lift off the deck overlooking the lake--plus the deck off the  downstairs deck--is covered with  more ice- Yesterday I cleared what the snowplough had pushed into our drive, out by the back road-- If it is left overnight, it all freezes and becomes stuck to the ground-impossible to lift--  I threw it out onto the road hoping the sun will melt it.

It is a wonderful long weekend-- Easter weekend, as a kid, we were all dressed up in a new Easter Bonnet-Mom took my older sister and I-- (in those days there were hat stores)- --- to the tiny hat store and we could choose a new hat--and we had bare legs and a new outfit and Sunday morning we were taken to Church--- and had to sit on a very cold bench in that church--I can almost still feel how cold Easter Sunday was, in London Ontario-- memories eh?---

Lotza stuff to think about on a good Friday--good memories--crazy memories-- and, I must try to remember that  life usually turns out  the way it is supposed to--in time! ---

LOL--- I did not buy Easter Candy--but-- I will to-day--and bring it to the dinner to-night--FOR THE GRAND  CHILDREN ----Funny what one remembers eh?- Son#$2, used to always eat the back off everyone's Chocolate Bunny--then put the front half back in the box--- hoping that child --his sister or brother, would not notice---and of course, it was a matter of time, before it was discovered and that child would come crying to me.---  

Sadie is now pounding at the door here-- (Yu know she is really me!)- so---   -I best get "this show on the road."

Even if the power goes out in your neck of the woods, remember to try not to "LOSE IT"---because, it WILL COME BACK ON__and---
