It's been 8 days since I last blogged. Doesn't seem that long. Time flies when you're having fun. Hello to all the American friends. Happy Thanksgiving.
On Monday we celebrated Nana's 88th birthday with dinner at a restaurant and a birthday cake. Jeanne's, naturally. Then I sent two pieces of Jeanne's cake home for Val and Ron. They couldn't make it as Val was recovering from knee surgery and couldn't bend her leg, yet. But Kim and Kevin were there and we were glad to see them. Marlene and Jeanette rounded out the table. I tried to put two pics in this entry. I don't know why they didn't appear. Will try to figure it out later.
On Tuesday I went to see Casino Royale. Well, Daniel Craig. Need I say more. If you like James Bond movies, I think you will like this one.
On Wednesday I subbed all day. Today I was at the University of Manitoba at an information table all day for the Humanist Association of Manitoba. We were making people aware of our group and its concerns. We are people who think our purpose here on Earth is to help other human beings. We believe humans can solve their problems without a need for a supernatural being. We believe in reason and science. There are some weird people out there. One man stopped by to ask us what will happen when aliens come to Earth and show us that humans are not the superior species we think they are! He wasn't joking! Do, do, do, do...The Twilight Zone!
Another man said, "If vegetarians eat vegetables, what do humanitarians eat?" Har dee har har. How original. Do all the loonies hang out at the U of M?
I see that Gary and Carolyn have arrived at Jack's and are probably enjoying a Thanksgiving dinner as I write. Jack, thanks for the pics of the boys. I laughed out loud to see Andrew in his Captain Underpants costume. Charlene, it's good to get all the news about the kids and how they are doing in school. Thanks so much for keeping up the blog. I wonder what Mike got for himself at Canadian Tire?
Well, big plans for the rest of the week. Tomorrow Mother and I go shopping for a new lamp for her apartment. Hers gave up the ghost last weekend. Then on Saturday it's off to another community club to sell gourd birdhouses for the Afrique 2007 project.
Take care, now, especially you, Jim and Debbie. Hugs and kisses to you.
