Company, Second Summer, Sleepless in Winnipeg 

It's very early in the morning, Monday, Oct. 16. The 16th of every month is hard. I'm not in prison but I'm doin' time. I am unable to sleep, so I thought I would post something. I have a scratchy throat. I hope I am not coming down with a virus.

Gary and Carolyn have been here for a few days. It's good to have some people in the house. It is generally too quiet. I talk to the dog, but so far, she has not learned to speak English, so our conversation is one-sided. Mother was here for the promised turkey dinner and we contacted Jack by computer with the webcam and Skype. It was great to talk to Jack and the boys.

This week Mother is leaning towards staying here in Winnipeg. She keeps changing her mind whether to stay here, or to move to Victoria. She goes back and forth, unable to decide. She'll be 88 on her birthday, November 20, and it must be very difficult for her. And she has changed her mind about going to visit Jack in November. She decided that it would be very tiring for her and she doesn't think she is up to it.

After several days of snow and high winds, we had a very pleasant day. The snow didn't stay. It pretty much melted the same day it fell. We just might be in for a second summer after all. Winter just might hold off for a few more days.


Take care, all.
