HARD WORK

P4210425
Early morning sunshine will turn to rain by later in the afternoon.  Made the house feel damp and chilly. The pile of junk is growing outside each driveway and looks very sad in the rain.  There could be many stories told by the items we see of children growing out of toys and into bigger beds.  T.V.'s are replaced with bigger and newer models.   After another hard day of work for dad he is ready to rest in his favorite chair.  We agreed it would not be put out  again this year.  It really looks the worst for wear and tear and I cannot remember a time we did not have it. 

Another hockey game disappointing for the Van. fans.
P4210429Always a few hero's and some aggressive bullies made for a fast game and hard work for all the players.

Looking back into our family time Saturday night was stew and hockey night.  Good times!

Haiti had a wonderful day at the beach with Kim and her friend but tried to hide when they got home and she heard the bath water running and knew it was for her.  She hoped that dad or I would protect her but not this time.

I did some hard work trying to answer questions for our bible study today.  We are making some goodie bags for mothers of poor families who come to get clothes for their children from our store.
The ladies who work there work extremely hard sorting the clothes that are donated and so gratefully appreciated.

Went to sleep listening to the pitter-patter of rain on the roof.

I came home from work and put the heat back on, I had it turned off completely since last weekend.

Randy was doing a double shift so it was just me and the animals huddled together on the couch.

Yes it would have been a good time for him to build one of his roaring fires. We turned ours on too.
Dogs are good company and cats too.

I think she will suddenly see the light - and you will not be able to stop her.

Yes I definitely agree - the Canucks are finished for the year. Around and around the boards is pretty - one in i while there should be someone in front of the net - a shot now and then would aalso help - the other teams are definitely on to them . Calgary has a great looking team - and young!

The jets went down in the end a little dissapointing .

Teaching takes lots of patience and lots of praise and rewards are good. Everyone is ready to learn at their own time and speed. I hope she has a good teacher.
I just about had enough hockey.
