June 5, 2019

Hello to all. Time has come to get this on it's way for you all to read. Back to May 1st. Heidi had school. The 2nd was her last day. All the parents where all invited at 3 to listen to a little program. It was very cute! The 4th we had supper at the fire hall for all the members. We did hamburgers and hotdogs. The 5th Kelly had a fire in the morning. Then Nigel and him went to the ER in the evening and come home inhalers for a week. The 6th I cleaned. The 7th was grocery day in town. The 8th I worked outside. The 9th the children and I sorted our one years worth of popcans and milk jug to take to the bottle depot. Our neighbors had there fire I wrote about last month. After that we took then pop cans in.

Well here it is the next day so I really just need to get this off! Back to the 10th of May. I cleaned house and in the afternoon Kelly met us in BL and we went and got flowers and we had our first of i'm sure many hot dog roasts this summer. The 11th the place where we bought our quad several years ago was having a sale on tires for 1 hours and we badly needed 2 new tires so we got up super early and got breakfast in town bought tires and came home. Then put Margo for a nap and went and planted the garden. The 12th was Mother's Day and Kelly's family went on a picnic to a nice park about an hour and a half away. I had made dessert earlier in the week for that. The 13th i mowed lawn. The 15th I cleaned house and realized that Nigel need new short pants and Old Navy was having a super good sale so we ran to town and met Kelly after work. Then to BL to pick up our taxes. The 17th we had Ricky's Isaac's and Marshal for a pizza supper. The 18th we ran to town and got the rest of plants we needed for our new landscaping project we are working The 19th Galen's called in the PM and wondered if we where home so they came and sat around the fire with us and had S'mores. Folks all so stopped by for a bit. The 20th I mowed lawn and worked outside. The 22nd I cleaned and took Margo and Nigel for hair cuts. The 23rd I took Heidi and Nigel to folks for a couple of days and Kelly, Margo and I went to Edmonton. The 24th I had my appointment for carpel tunnel to see if I need surgery now or later. The Dr felt I wasn't quit bad enough for surgery yet he wanted to try a few things first. It does seem to be working for now but if it doesn't in 3 months I go for a injection in my wrists. The 25th we got home. The 26th we had a potluck at church for dinner. It was youth rally in Crooked Creek so we called it in a listened after lunch. The 27th I mowed lawn and tilled where we are doing our new landscaping. When Kelly got home from work we went to the colony and got 22 chickens. We are very glad to have chickens again. This is our third year having them. The 28th I did book work. The 29th I had a physio appointment in BL for my ankle that I sprained really back a while back and it was still hurting pretty bad. I left the children with Chanty. Came home and mowed lawn. We went to folks for supper in the evening. I made dessert. Some people where out that they where in Mexico with years ago. The 30th was our neighbor lady's funeral. She lived down the road away and they where really close friends with Kelly's family for years. So we went to Hythe for that in the afternoon. Kelly took of work a bit early for it. Then we decided to go back to town for bark for our project and come home and got it done! Yay i'm so excited. As many of you know we made a nice walkway to our front porch a few years ago and was left with a little patch of grass that we weren't sure what we wanted in it so decided to leave it for a few years and see. Well mowing it has been a pain and now we have tilled it up and put nice bark down and planted 2 roses and another plant and left a little area for Heidi and Nigel to park their bikes in. We love it now!  The 31st I cleaned and we had Errol's for supper because Emily's folks are out. had lots of fun. I made pizza for supper. Well that's all for this time! Till next time.......
