Our Location today is Tecumseh, Ontario, Canada.
Not being able to fall back asleep I was out of bed by 6:00 this
morning. I managed to get all my morning reading completed and got things ready
to make breakfast before I had to wake Kathy at 8:00. The reason for waking her
was that she was going Christmas Shopping with
our daughter Karen today. Yes our shopping was all wrapped by the middle of
September this year but Karen trusts her mother’s judgment for gift giving
ideas so that is why she asked her to go with her. It was shortly after 9:00
when they left to try and beat the crowds at the stores.
I was supposed to drive our friend Kathie to the hospital to
pick up Ross who had surgery yesterday and bring him home. I called her and was
told that it might not be until this afternoon because there was a bleeding
problem. I gave her my cellphone number because I needed to get the laundry
done today. I finally made it downstairs around 10:30 and nobody else was there.
Back upstairs I checked a few things on the computer before going to change the
clothes to the dryer. Returning upstairs I started heating up the Cabbage and
Corned Beef Soup that we had made the other day.
While eating and watching the Weather Channel my cellphone
rang. Kathie said the doctors were keeping Ross another day in hopes that the
bleeding will stop. I assured her he was better off being in the hospital where
they could deal with it better than if he were home.
After finishing the laundry I was in the process of putting
the fresh linens on the bed when Kathy and Karen came in. With only 16 days to Christmas day they said most of the people
at the stores and the mall were elbow to elbow making lots of people very
miserable. (That’s why we try to avoid shopping at
this time of year.)
After 8:00 tonight we were on our way to the New Belle River
Arena to watch our grandson Tyler’s hockey team play. It’s been over a week
since they last played and we were starting to go through withdrawal. Tyler
managed to get the first goal of the night which helped to spur on his team but
both teams were evenly matched tonight with the final score being tied at two
each.
Tomorrow we are not quite sure what we’ll be doing but whatever
it is will be interesting. Thanks for following along and feel free to leave a
comment. Be Safe and Enjoy!
It’s about time.
