I'm up! I'm up!

        Saturday--September 11th--6-22am--  dark outside---and sorta cold---quite  cold--8 degrees  cloudy--

--just up----  feeding the cat--and the dog---checking on Son #2 also--who is winging his way back to Canada , from Brazil-------So--I shall return--  give me 20 minutes here----        -and -I shall return-!

So---I believe Son#2's 'plane has landed--in Ottawa--  Funny, coz my niece just landed there too, from Rome I think--Too bad they don't know each other--2 strangers , passing in the night--AND THEY ARE COUSINS-----

So Sushi is fed--also Lopez, who I see is "Hoarding" his food--He has it under his blanket and every time I walk by, he looks at me like, it is his big secret-- Chihuahuas seem to hoard  food--toys-- any of their treasures--

It is still very dark outside here ----almost 7-30am--  One can tell that winter is coming-- short days--long dark short days--

                        I found a couple of "blasts from the past" photos--They are always fun to see---

This is one of the beaches in town--about the time Fred and I moved here--  You can see how we all loved this beach which we called "the New Beach"--

And below, is Son#2's daughter, (finished University now)----who is holding Son#3's daughter--who is now in her 2nd yr University--

Where does the time go?

Himself was so proud of these children---

I do miss him so much--Does it ever get easier???

Anyway, I must get these animals outside--  

Thanksgiving Weekend  coming up, in Canada--  So much to be thankful for isn't there?--

We are strong-have to be-- no choice in the matter--

It really is about. being better than you were yesterday--

Isn't that so true--  ?-

-So get up and get at-er--
