This cold weather has lasted a long time. Hopefully this week we will get a break which we are all looking forward to. The forecast is even mentioning rain on Thursday.
Our thoughts and prayers are going out to the young lady who was electrocuted recently from Gatineau. It must be terrible to lose both your arms and feet. I guess sometimes we can’t be careful enough. Never get out of your car if there are live hydro wires.

Congratulations to Angela and Mike Kelley of Buffalo, NY on the birth of their third child, a girl, a sister for Kay and Stanley and a great-granddaughter for Freida Krose of Ladysmith.
My sister Beulah Grife spent nine days with us over the holidays and will be returning soon.

Happy birthday to Betty Morrison on Jan. 17 and to Sarah Zimmerling on Jan. 15.
Happy anniversary to Marlene and Laynard Pasch on Jan. 15.
Last week I mentioned that my stray cat was gone for two weeks. Well, lo and behold two days later he turned up and he looked in pretty good shape. I guess stray cats have a way of surviving. He sure is eating a lot. I keep dry cat food out and also give him canned food.
The deer seem to be coming close to the house now.
I guess they are starting to yard up for the winter. Winnifred and Gerald Mielke were saying that they (the deer) are starting to move into their bush but there are also wolves around.
