March 23-March 30

Saturday March 23

Spent a lot of time organizing books. Had coffee at BH. Went to Mass at 5:00 for Palm Sunday. Went to Hastings for fish and chips and sat with Theo & Marg and had a nice visit.

Sunday March 24

A beautiful spring day temp plus 6° C. Went for breakfast and sat with Lou & Carmel. The place was packed and poor Paul & Nichole were run off their feet. Delivered some jewellery too. Came home and did laundry and hung some out on the line. At 7 we went to our Church for the Multi-denominational Palm Sunday Service. Each Church did a reading and each Church choir did a song. Ours went very well. Theo & Dan did the male parts and played their guitars. Nancy did a solo part and Elaine, Lisa, Julia and I did the general parts.

Monday March 25

Spent most of the day arranging books. Went for coffee.

Tuesday March 26

Went to work. Afterwards we had coffee with Nancy at BH and then decided to go to Peterborough shopping. Bought a TV, router, printer, and two light fixtures. Had supper at DQ. Brendon and Ryan were here all day building a box for the fireplace to sit on and they assembled the fireplace.

Wednesday March 27

Went to work. At 3:00 pm John and I did our hour at Church for 40 hours devotion. Harry and Carole were after us so we invited them to supper. Brendon and Ryan here to finish up. Can't match the drawer handles so went to Home Hardware and ordered new ones which we will put on the drawers inside the wardrobes and put the matching ones on the new drawers under the fireplace. They won't come for a week. Had a nice supper with Harry & Carole. Oriental pork chops and baked rice with salad. Heard from Nancy that Joyce has got an infection and is in the hospital.

Thursday March 28

Brendon alone was here at 8:45. He and John put the fireplace on the box he built and set up the TV. He also hung the light fixture but we have a zillion crystals to put on it! He gave us his bill and I paid it. John set up the new router but we had lots of problems and ended up phoning and spent over an hour on two phones getting it set up and never did get it all done but got too hungry and frustrated. Went to BH for Paul's fantastic potato soup and we split a western it was after 2! Had grilled cheese for supper. I played games and then went to bed early with the heat on in the fireplace and watched HDTV in high def. John had 21 tax returns come in today.

Friday March 29

Good Friday so no work. Had lunch at BH. Talked to Nancy and Joyce has an infection which is now in the blood stream and she is on antibiotics and still in hospital and sleeping a lot. Went to the Church service at 3 pm. Watched TV in a warm room. I love my new bedroom!
