Prairie Dog Blog

It's been a very busy few days. My siding and window cladding went up on Monday and Tuesday. I hired a young entrepreneur to cut my grass while I'm away. On Wednesday morning I picked out paint, tiles and flooring for my bathrooms(that work starts in August).

I subbed Wednesday afternoon, all day Thursday and Friday. I think sometime during the week I promised about a hundred and fifty people that I would have lunch with them this summer. I don't know if there are enough days in July and August. On Saturday I went to the Humanist Association of Manitoba Summer Soltice Barbeque. On Sunday I went out of my gourd (sold gourd birdhouses) for Students Without Borders at St. Vital Mall. And in between I've been doing laundry and preparing for my visit to Vancouver. Whew! I leave on Tuesday and will be gone for a week. I think I need the break. I won't be posting to the blog while I am gone. I'm taking a break and leaving the computer home.

Goodbye to all out there in blogland. Think of me on June 14. Dennis' birthday. He would have been 59. Now he will never grow old. Not much consolation. I was hoping to grow old with him.

Thanks to modern medical advances such as antibiotics, nasal spray, and Diet Coke, it has become routine for people in the civilized world to pass the age of 40, sometimes more than once. ~Dave Barry, "Your Disintegrating Body," Dave Barry Turns 40, 1990
