It was mostly a usual week with hubby feeling better and able to come with me and that was great. I really miss his company when he is stuck at home with a cold. It isn't like we do anything different it is just that we are together.
I read on my facebook feed this morning that a dear friend of many years is at the heart institute to have more tests in order to be put on the heart transplant list and that the heart trouble has lead to kidney trouble and they are working to try to keep her from needing a kidney transplant. As I read her morning post I prayed for her and added my gratitude to the good Lord that it is only my hands acting up. My friend has always been matter-of-fact about her heart troubles to the point that you nearly forget that anything is going on in her life but then she hits another bump and you realize how amazing she is to handle this with hardly a word.
I drove DD the 1st to London yesterday and will have to go and pick her back up on Saturday. She doesn't drive, you see, but then when we took her driving back when she could take driving lessons she was so nervous that it would have been not only awful for her to drive but everyone around her would be at risk too. She is way too nervous to drive. It hasn't really changed over the years and sometimes she talks about learning to drive but it is never the right place or time. This, of course does make it difficult for her to go looking at apartments and jobs in the nearby city of London, where she does wish to live but we shall do what we can to help as we can. I am adding in my prayers that she finds a great place to live and a lovely job as well but then children always stay in our prayers no matter their age or ours.
The Eastern and Western Finals in the Canadian Football League are this weekend and both hubby and I are looking forward to watching both games. Next week will be the final game - The Grey Cup. We are looking forward to seeing our two favourite Eastern and Western teams play each other, they are not the favourites to win according to the experts on the teams this weekend but they have been wrong before.
I saw this funny this week and it made me laugh, thought I would share it with you too.
It might work - LOL
Have a great weekend.
No matter the camera, it's difficult to truly capture Mother Nature's beauty. Good luck to DD and her job search. Sadly, Grogu's assessment is correct. Have a great weekend.
ReplyDeletep.s The poppies on your page are such a nice tribute to those who have or are serving.
Thank you and yup, I think Grogu is right. Off to pick her up today, another long drive for me.
DeleteI agree with Jeanne! No camera image matches "being there". This includes the Maker's beauty of all sorts, including the sunrises and sunsets, and moons and stars... but also much of manmade beauty. Standing in St. Peter's Basilica staring at The Pieta, where marble has been carved to be delicate laces, or being in the shadow of Michaelangelo's David, etc. Cameras can capture enough to make us want to go experience it... i.e. get up early or stay up late for sunrise or sunset (especially on a beach), or travel to museums and galleries.
ReplyDeleteHugs and have a wonderful weekend yourself... and go right ahead and share those captures!
So very true and somethings I shall not get to see but at least there are people like Walking Alice who tours those places and shows me the sights. Have a great day and I will keep sharing.
DeleteAgree that being there is so much better than any picture, but you do an excellent job at showing us. I hope that your daughter is able to find a job and a place that works best for her.
ReplyDeleteEnjoy your weekend! (((BIG HUGS)))
Very true, the sky was just glowing but I will keep trying. I hope so too, on my way today to pick her back up in London and bring her back. (Think she will owe us a tank of gas - LOL)
