This has been a great weekend so far…the weather is beautiful and Jerry and I are pretty much finished with the Fall yard work. We cleaned out all our pots and pulled all the annuals from the flowerbeds and now it is into making sure everything is watered well before the snow sets in. I am always sad when it comes to cleaning up all the flowers I planted in the spring, but with the weather being so fine, it was awesome being outside, and Jerry and I both had Friday, Saturday and Sunday off.

I had kind of forgot about Thanksgiving weekend, but Wendy called the other evening and invited us and Kristy for Thanksgiving dinner on Sunday.We are so looking forward to that. It’s like going to our “grown up” kids for Thanksgiving dinner.

This was a very busy week which ended up including a terrible migraine headache on Thursday, but I did get that out of the way by dealing with it the way I should, and that is taking drugs and staying in bed until the worst of it passes. Sure messes up my week though…I kept thinking today was Friday as apparently I missed Thursday almost entirely.

My sister Joanne is coming out on Wednesday…Dwight is coming too…Dwight is coming for a conference and Joanne is coming out to visit…I guess Dwight will have some time to visit too…anyway, we will be heading up to Prince Albert on Friday to spend some time with my Doris and Lorne. I hope the weather is nice and not too cold or snowing…that would be absolutely awful! I am looking forward to this week…it should be fun…we always laugh lots when we all get together…our kids say our humour gets downright awful…but it sure is funny!

Tamara is in Nagasaki,(not sure I spelt that right) Japan…she had a 4 day weekend so headed over there with a friend…she was going to phone when she arrived, but we haven’t heard from her…hopefully all is fine. She is going to be home for Christmas…that is going to be wonderful.

Matt played his first game of hockey in 6 years and he said it was great fun. He told his dad that his head knew what to do but the body didn’t react the way it should…Jerry said “welcome” to the world of “getting older”…I think at 25 Matt is still in the realm of being “young”…his dad is just jealous!
