We are waiting with excitement for the arrival of the Bennett family from Kelowna where they had a grand time. Jasmine is feeling a little home sick and I understand that feeling. The Bennett's arrived back home here about 7 o'clock the children looking very sleepy as they tumbled from the car after a long drive. They stopped at Manning Park and had their pictures taken under the huge black bear. Pizza was the order of the day.
Saturday they will be joining other first time golfers from Sandra's work for an afternoon of golfing and dinner with prizes. I hope it is not raining. Carol with the help of Morgan will be taking care of the children.
I went for a quick morning walk, the day was dull and unpromising on Friday.
We took fresh flowers in to the Hospice only to find with relief and with sadness Eileen had departed for a better place.
Feeling unsettled dad and I drove to the Sylvia where we met our familiar waitress and enjoyed the view and a light lunch with heavy hearts. The amazing thing was she brought her three boys all together and they had not seen or spoken for years. Always sad even when expected and you know it was time.
Back home I am graving sweets and fortunately Theresa had brought me lots of gluten-free cookies from the States. Tried to start a mystery novel.
Reminded again that life and death is the greatest mystery.
