Hi Deb

you must be happy.

My daughter married a man from Nova Scotia, and has lived in Dartmouth for 8 of the last 9 years .... they spent a year here (August 2006 to August 2007) while he started a PhD in education st Simon Fraser. They lived in North Vancouver that year. It was great to have them "close" again!


It was very cloudy this morning, but now the sun is out, and its blue skies on this side.

Sylvia she has just spent the last 11 months in Australia! They both got back last Thursday.

He loves her and this country so I think that in about three years we will have a new citizen...lol

If you know of anyone who needs a CNC Machinist he's the man.

Hi Deb, sorry didn't get here till now, had to catch up with all the threads or I feel out of it lol and don't know what others are talking about later on.

Hope you are lots better and enjoying having the young folk around you.

Better go and see if o.h. is up, thought he said he was getting up at 5am, bet he forgot to set the alarm lol

Liz.....YooooHooooo!
Where are you?

Deb

Hi Sylvia!

Just ran the kids down to White Spot.
We have our daughters Australian boyfriend here and he LOVES the burgers there.

He was here last year for four months and I think he tried every restaurant in the Tri Cities, lol.
He can't believe how cheap it is to eat out here.

He is here for two years, so can take his time going back to his "favourites"!

How's the weather that side of town?
Drizzling here and 8c.

Deb

Hi Deb!

from Marpole in good old south Vancouver

sylvia

Yes Tea Joy!

I haven't really drank for 6 months now.
I'm on too many meds because of my back to be able to.
Besides that, it is only 4.22pm here-a little early even for the old me :)

Deb

Absolutely ... :-)

(only reading elsewhere)

Cup of tea?

Hi Joy!

Stay here its safe.
Deb

Tin hat, Deb?

HI COOOOOOOOOOEEEEEEEEEEE

Yes, will look out for you Deb, if I miss you, send me a pm eh?

Enjoy the movie, think I will away to bed, it's so cold and the threads have been so pathetically boring, as you say, same old, same old...

Lizxxx

Hi Liz,
Just reading too. Same old, same old.
It did confirm my suspicions though.
Just off to have a cuppa and watch a movie.

Catch you tomorrow night?

Deb

Sorry Deb, missed you there, was trawling the day's threads which I do every night, don't want to miss anything exciting lol
Hope you are ok

Lizxx

Good evening, anyone there?

Deb

Thanks Joy, it wasn't as upsetting as I expected really, as my friend who drove me there said, we said our goodbyes in our minds at the end of August when Liz died, so three weeks on it seemed a bit wierd really, there were a few tears from some people in her family but nothing desperately sad. The get together afterwards was very nice and I got to catch up with several members of her family I hadn't seen for a long time. My friend from Germany is over here with her hubby and they came as they knew Liz through me as did my friend who picked me up so we spent time together which was nice.
We will all have our own memories of Liz to think back on and enjoy.
Thanks again for your kind thoughts, Joy.

Just popping in to say hope you are ok, Liz, after the ordeal today or, rather, yesterday.

G'Day Ladies,
It's a sunny afternoon here in the Antipodes. I really need to go and get some housework done.

Ian

I'm much the same Deb, a bit fatter, if you look on the evening news 24 norwich site for a school reunion picture you will see me, fair fat and over sixty lol Situation the same as before, can't find the energy to declutter at my house yet.

Hope you get your office fixed up soon, o.h. started doing his bathroom last November, shower still only half fixed in, tiling half done and ungrouted and no idea what he wants to do on the rest of the walls or floor, no bath panel as he broke the plastic one that came with the suite and he still has to decide on lighting too lol He has 4 days booked in Oct to do some more but his son is due home from America on 4th Oct so he will probably spend time with him, helping him find somewhere to live as his Mum has had enough of him. He went off owing thousands and the bailiffs have been to her home while he has been away etc etc. O.h. says he is my son, I have to help him, but the longer he keeps bailing him out the more mess he will get in and the other son is getting fed up seeing his father help this son so much. Heyho, happy families lol
Glad you are getting better slowly and hope you will find something to alleviate the boredom a bit.
Catch up with you again soon, I must get to bed, it is 5am here.
take care,
love
Lizxx
