It is so nice when you are working to have a long week end like we had this past week.
We are still getting a lot of rain which is good for the gardens and flower beds but it is not good for other things, especially when it makes the fields too wet for the farmers to get into.
It is so nice to see all these teenagers graduating from high school. My niece Erin and my grand-daughter are graduating this year. Erin will be taking nursing and Natasha will be going to Algonquin College to be a social worker. I am so proud of these two girls.

I talked to two of my sisters this weekend and they both are doing well.
My daughter is going to have her mother-in-law come visit from British Colombia so that should be nice.
I don’t know if anyone noticed but I have been trying to make the hill in front of our house look nicer by planting perennials and putting ground cover down to keep the weeds and grass from growing. It is a lot of work but I hope it will be well worth it as this hill is on a slope that you can’t mow with a lawn mower and whipper snipping is hard so keep your fingers crossed that it works.
I had a nice visit on Saturday from my two aunts, my aunt Mary who was married to my uncle Dugal and aunt Pat who was married to uncle Kenny. Like they said too many times people just visit whenever it’s a wake or a funeral which is too bad, but these ladies in their 70s and 80s get out there to visit.
I got another stepping stone done that I made for my brother Neil and his wife Margaret, who have always been there for me.
I’m finally finished my 20 radiation treatments in Gatineau. I am so glad it is over. There was a lot of driving but I must say I found this clinic very organized and everyone was so pleasant, especially the volunteers.
I walked in one morning and one of the volunteers at the front door told me in French that I looked beautiful today. It is so nice to hear something nice whenever you sometimes feel like crap. One thing I think is neat is at the end of the treatment you get to ring a bell to say that you are finished and everyone claps. I met a lot of nice people there.
Hoping one of my neighbours, Maria, is doing well as she had a fall but she is a determined lady and I’m sure she will be fine with the help of her family.
My neighbour Linda and her granddaughter are in Texas visiting her son, Cory who always gives his mom a holiday every summer.
