I can’t believe that we are into June already. We had the township here washing our our street last week. Maybe it will keep down the dust. I still remember when I was a kid and they would put oil on the roads to keep down the dust. One day, Jack Boyd and his boys decided they would use old oil in a big truck to do this. I still remember when his son was at the back of the big container on the back of the truck and it shifted. He got stuck behind the container. It was terrible but thank God they got him out from behind.

I don’t know if many people know about dementia but my sister Ruth who lived here all of her life until my mother passed away and is now living in Alberta, has dementia. She has been in a home out there for about two years. Recently she has had complications with speaking and walking. She just woke up one morning and couldn’t get out of bed. Her daughter took her to a hospital and they admitted her. She has been in there for over a week having all kinds of tests. The doctor out there thinks her dementia is caused by all the medication that she has been on all these years. So check with your doctor about any medication you take. Some times, if you need it, you just have to bite the bullet.
For you who know my sister please say a prayer for her as she needs all the help she can get. Sometimes life isn’t fair. She spent her last years living here looking after my mother.
Now to a lighter note, my garden is all in and looking good. I got a lot of my plants at Kelly’s and Giant Tiger, both good places to buy.
I rode my Morgan mare yesterday. I was getting her ready for her annual transfer to her bigger field with her foal that is as big as her now.
My daughter, Natasha is in New York, NY this week doing a hair show for the company Rusk that she works for. She just got a big promotion. She is now a Jr. Master Designer which she deserves for all her hard work.
I would also like to welcome our new neighbours who just moved in. They are very friendly and helpful.
If anyone has birthday announcements etc. please give me a call 819-647-4700.
