Well that is the last long weekend of the year. Hope everyone was able to spend some time with those that you love or at least can tolerate. And had some good food.
Christmas is the next holiday we have, well unless of course you celebrate the American Thanksgiving.
This month I am sure will go down in the history books, 10/10/10, was yesterday. Don't think we are going to see that again in our lifetimes. And there is five Fridays, five Saturdays and five Sundays this month. I have forgotten when this will happen again, but unless you intend to live really really long you won't see this again either.
My Donkey is off golfing today, probably the last time out of the year, well here in Canada anyways. I am sure he will be golfing in Florida come December. Has been a really beautiful weekend weather wise, lots of sun a perfect weekend to go and check out the fall colors. Which I haven't been able to do. Tomorrow I hope to go to my Kitten's house and will be taking the camera and try and get a few shots taken. She has been suffering from a cold of some sort so will have to see how she is feeling tomorrow, I don't go to sick peoples houses and they don't come here. Have a bit of a phobia of the sickly, I am done with hospitals and doctors and I stay away from the ill, my system just can't fight it off anymore.
We had a lovely meal yesterday at the in-laws, was great to see the family (well not all of them), all the kids are sure growing up fast, have to take a second look at some of them to realize who they are. Donkey comes from a large family, eight siblings including him. I was raised alone, all the siblings were grown and gone when I came along, so seeing the interaction of large families always amazes me. I think I might being alone.
My daughter and boyfriend with the kidlets came, very nice to see them. I had picked them up the cutest halloween outfits for this month, so cute. And of course I forgot to take pictures and for once I actually remembered to bring the camera, so typical of me. Either I forget the damn thing or I forget to use it. Last year I left it on the piano when we went to Florida, thank goodness my sister-in-law had hers and shared with me. I have to take pictures of palm trees, I don't know what it is about them but I sure have a lot of pictures of them.
Oh and an update on our weepy basement, I think it has finally stopped. I have been able today to turn off the pump, poor little thing has been working non-stop for weeks it seems. Basement looks good so far, fingers crossed. Left the pump down there just in-case though, we have that kind of luck.
Did I tell you I got rid of that damn piano. If you ever need movers for a piano call Dial A Movers from Orillia, nice guys and they were very respectful of the house and the piano. I hope the family that took it are happy with it.
Well that is kind of it for today, I am suppose to be working and needed a bit of a break, now it is coffee time. Enjoy the holiday today, and will talk to you next week.
Love and hugs
