December 4, 2020

 Hello to everyone! I have been thinking about writing for a few days and now it's quite while the children nap. Yes Nigel still naps at 1.5 hours every day and sleeps very well at night. Guess he just needs more sleep. I also don't stress if he doesn't get one he's just fine. Well our month of November was very interesting. November 6 was my birthday and we went to Darrell's for supper. I got some syrups for my expresso machine so now I can make more flavors of Latté's. I gifted myself a machine a few months earlier and have really enjoyed learning how to use it. On the 13th we had company for a pizza supper. The 14th we went to Waterloo to do some shopping. The 15th Kelly woke up sick. We didn't think anything of it till about mid morning he got a text from a customer from work saying he tested positive for Covid. Kelly messaged Darrell and found out he was sick as well. They decided they has better self quarantine. I started to feel sick on Tuesday but was taking Advil and Tylenol so I'm sure I would have had a fever. Thursday Margo had her flu shot and I was feeling much better. Than in the afternoon we got a call saying we needed to pick up Heidi from school because the company we had the 13th had tested positive. Kelly got sent home from work and picked up groceries for us. So we where in quarantine for about 9 days. We had Darrell's for supper as well that night so they had to quarantine as well. We decided not to get tested so they consider Kelly, Heidi, and myself to have had it. School was also shut for 10 days and today it the first day back. I did have to home school Heidi one day. Our quarantine was up the 25th and Nigel and Margo has to stay a few days longer as they showed no symptoms. We went to Darrell's for supper the 28th as it was Carissa's birthday while we where in quarantine. I made Turtle cupcakes for her birthday. The 29th went on a walk in the afternoon with Brent's. If we want to go to Alberta for Christmas like we plan we can't be with any one other than family because if we come in contact with positive case 14 days before we fly they won't let us on the plane. So no church and no company for a while. We do still plan on going to Alberta unless the airline cancels our tickets or the family from there decides it's to risky for us to go.  Well I need to run. We are butchering pigs this weekend. Only as many as can legally be indoors so a lot less people and we won't do as many pigs. Have a great weekend. Till next time..........
