Good morning on this hot, muggy , buggy , overcast day!--Lopez and I (and Sushi) are up and at-er here! Lopez has already been out AND HE DID HIS BUSINESS!---It is garbage day here--but--It is CANADA DAY ALSO-- A HOLIDAY TO CELEBRATE CANADA---probably most business are closed--with many celebrations on Parliament Hill to-day.-- Canada is 158 yrs old--
I found out yesterday that Himself and I were married 58 years ----It certainly did not seem that long-- In fact, it wasn't long enough!--- We used to always go to the end of Elliot Lake, along the highway there, and watch the fireworks-- I remember the black flies trying to get into our vehicle--- and I also remember how frightened the German Shepherds were with all the noise of the fireworks-I had a "thunder shirt" which I used to wrap some of them in--- The shirt was supposed to calm the dog, but it really did not--always so many memories as we age, aren't there?--
I am packing some boxes-- things I will not need right now--- but--the problem is, the more boxes I do pack and tape shut, the less room there is in this apartment.--- Only 3 weeks and I shall be out of here---
Hi Lynda! Happy Tuesday and Canada day! Cloudy and light rain in Ohio. Good boy, Lopez. My dogs have been at doggie care this week while renovations are going on in the family room which is their main space. Taking the carpet out which will be nice but a huge dusty mess right now. Hope you enjoy the holiday! Hugs!
ReplyDeleteYes I hear it is raining in Ohio----24C here today--- lots of packing--I guess I'll try to get more done-- Hugs--Hope your renovated room is spectacular--Lynda
DeleteGood morning, sis.
ReplyDeleteWhen I checked in last night to read any comments, I found mine hadn't posted. I did it then, just so you know. You didn't see it, I am sure, cuz you had already done your comments. The strange thing is, earlier I checked and my comment was still there. Sigh
Love all those bitty grandchildren! Most in the photos were girls.
The more you pack, the less room you have to move around...but the less you will have to think about as the time gets closer.
Glad Lopez cooperated. Lucky didn't...he threw up again.
The photo of Himself really looks good. I can see why you 'fell' for him!
I am getting ready to go to the VA Hospital for ex-rays on my hip. They are also doing the knee and ankle on the same side where my hip broke.
I will have a chance to shop in the duty (tax) free store an get some lunch in the commisary.
My wi-fi died late last night. Still wouldn't let me connect to google this morning. I ended up calling tech support. They sent a 'hit' to my unit. All is fine now except that Facebook says that I went too fast logging in and I am temporarily blocked!
I'll just try it later when I get home. Will check back here, too, of course.
I trust the rest of your day will be pleasant! {{{HUGS}}} Love, Maggie
Maggie why does your comments keep wiping off here-- Weird!---I will go back to yesterday and check--How did the xrays go on yer hip??-- and you are temporarily blocked on yer computer?==Maggie that isn't right-- Lordy be!-- Hope you can sort it all out=-- Lynda
DeleteOK Maggie---I just checked and you are not on yesterdays blog--Why is this happening--- ??--- If it is a draft you can see it but once it is published you cannot get in there again-- Does that help??--Lynda
DeleteHappy Canada Day. Celebrate your democracy, freedoms!
ReplyDeleteOh, your Himself was dashing before the 1,005 children! LOL It just feels like that sometimes, doesn’t it! I know, the time together is NEVER enough. Good thing for memories to hold us together!

Yes Barb--Yu are "SO" right -Our time together was not long enough--Lynda
DeleteIt's Kathy. Happy Canada Day! Thanks for the "don't give up" comment because I'm struggling today. Didn't sleep well, went to the gym and my body doesn't cooperate with my mind, and it's already too hot to get outside. Yesterday it cooled off nicely but we ate dinner so late - so I'll plan on getting outside for a bit after dinner tonight! It really is a nice day here - but I need to wait for the shade! YEAH for Lopez, he did his business! Daisy isn't happy with the heat either - I have to make her go outside! Poor thing with that thick fur coat! I hope you have a good day!
ReplyDeleteKathy-- DO NOT GIVE UP--- So many times I have to tell myself that! Some days are just not easy--and I want to cry--nut then I try one more time, and it usually works out--Lynda
DeleteHi Lynda
ReplyDeleteHappy Canada Day.
YOU are my blessing. Love my daily dose of positivity. You rock.
Yes. Fred was quite handsome before 1005 kids lol. 58 years married wow
Did you have a big celebration at 50th. I always remember he told people at lodge you were the best decision he ever made.
Pack away. Have someone move boxes against a wall in LR. I hope you are purging and taking LESS then you brought.
Nice grand pics.
Hugs and blessings
Marge St.Louis
Oh Marge Some days are so difficult aren't they??--Yes Fred was my "rock"-- He tried so hard to help me--and he seemed to be always "right"--! LOLOL--- I loved him so much--- (some days were not easy)---- but--we usually figured out "life" -sorta--- LOL---Lynda
DeleteHi Lynda: Happy Canada Day! Nice day today although a bit warm. Nice picture of himself and the ones of the grandkids too. You are so excited to move back to EL. Is one of the boys from there coming down to drive you back?
