Easter weekend

 Here we are at Easter already ...hope you all have a pleasant weekend to celebrate and a special moment thinking of family. We will be staying home for Easter this year, so might be quiet for us. Plan to visit Mike next Thursday - perhaps a special day for me haha! 😂

I expect Pati you will be busy with the house prep for next Thursday. And after seeing pictures and hearing on the news about the weather in Winnipeg and surrounds, it may not be so nice after all. The WFP referenced the storm on April 5 1997 that was the fore bearer for the Flood of the Century. How you must remember that year...and hope this will not be too bad for water.

Took Bailey out early and with the closing of the door, a sudden flutter in the Maple tree and out flew a huge bird flapping his broad wings and flew off to a tree in the back yard. I am sure it was an owl as what other big bird could it have been? I was amazed and I imagined it would bring us all good luck and health. Lets count on it....

Reading Murder at Havens Rock and well into it now - another attempted murder and Casey and Dalton have only been in town for a day.... haha! It is a good read and I like the way Kelley Armstrong strings the story along. I hope there will be more in this new series.

So to you both... Happy Easter sisters of mine. Thinking of you as always.. Love XX

The energy-sucking garage sale panic is over.

  We both made it through the day without faltering, very much looking forward to a good nap once things were over.  But then were so high couldn't sleep.  Both Loren and Amber were there to help us, with Amber stopping at Tim's for breakfast on her way.   I was up and immediately dressed at 7:00 (Omg!  It even hurts to be able to say that)  Then off in the car to set up 5 signs.  Of course, each stop one has to find a place to park, get out of the car, place the sign, and reverse the process.  That finished, I parked in the mall across the way, pulled my walker out of the car, and trudged off home.  I was so glad to have the walker during the day, mainly because the float was hidden in the small zipper compartment in the walker and I sat on it most of the day.  We moved the patio table and umbrella to the front yard.  Amber and I spent most of the day there, while Loren and Dave spent their time in the garage, until later in t...

Baking

  Yesterday I forgot to mention that I've become concerned about how much money we've been spending on muffins.  So I decided to try baking them on my own.  We got rid of all my baking pans at the garage sale so had to make a trip to Dollarama for a new one.  It's silicone and soft and wiggly, but also dishwasher safe.  I've made some Blueberry muffins that didn't rise very well.  Turned out the baking powder was over a year past it's "best before" date.  Went out and bought more. I've found recipes on-line for Banana Chocolate Chip, Chocolate, and another Blueberry that uses frozen berries rather than thawed--great--as all of mine are Frozen.  I'm also going to look for a recipe for Bran, but not today.

Yes. It is Sunday again

  Time keeps passing. Faster and faster every day. We had freezing rain last night and this morning but it seems to have stopped for now, but that damp chill goes right through me!  Lucky and Ally are both sleeping so is almost like having time to myself. I did walk Lucky this morning but we stayed off the road. We went around the trail cause it wasn’t icy. Less dangerous for both of us. I snuggled down this weekend but I will have to venture out tomorrow.  Hopefully the roads will be clear. They don’t look bad right now so it is promising. I get my flu shot on Wednesday and Ally has a vet appointment on Friday. And I’m going to call for a lawyer appointment tomorrow.  Chloe is going to have her “old people” birthday party on the 18th. Kik and I will go together. And I told Kik I would go to Winnipeg with her on the 14th. I hate the time change. I was awake very early this morning, even though Lucky stayed sleeping until 6:30!  It’s just going to be an extra lon...
