NEIGHBORS


                                                Ophelia likes her new seat.
Dad was a great help and made us something to eat.
We really do need to go shopping for food today.
First dad is picking up some more pea gravel.

Ophelia has a little nap in my arms.
She now knows us and that is good but she likes to crawl around and does not like just to be held.
She was very tired when we picked her up from daycare.
She was sitting in rolling seat in the huge back yard.
There were 5 other children and lots of swings and slides and chairs and tables.
They are a happy bunch and they all love Ophelia and she certainly is lovable!
We will be picking her up today again.

Dad is in charge of my birthday party which we will have on Sat. or Sunday.  On my birthday we may drive out to Harrison and live it up!  One thing about being older you can still enjoy life!

Our neighbor, who lives in Cathy's old house, saw the baby coming and going and has volunteer to come and help us if we need any help.  She will drop by to see Ophelia and gives us her phone number.

Our neighbors next door to us have put little Christmas lights in their trees in the back.  They built the fence we paid for and made a big improvement in both our yards.  They have volunteered to walk Haiti because they sure like her.

We had a naughty raccoon pick up the teddy bear left out in the yard played with it in our pond.

                                            Very sad looking bear.

Yes, I noticed that Ophelia would much rather be down on the ground crawling around than being held. It is nice that you and Dad can assist a bit with child minding but, of course, you are not a spring chicken anymore and you shouldn't over-do it. (Easy for me to say, I suppose, way off here in Kamloops.)

If you are going out towards Harrison on your birthday, you might want to stop in at Rusty's Thrift Shop, 6397 Lougheed Hwy RR 1, Agassiz, BC V0M 1A1. They have lots of quirky things inside and outside they have lots of old machinery and junk that Dad might like.

Love,

Rick

There is such a benefit in knowing your neighbours, it is nice of them to offer to help out in little ways.

I have a sick kitten today, may have to take it to the vet. I am to keep an eye on it and report if it throws up again.

Fingers crossed I do not have to, that will be 2 or 3 hours for sure as it is an emergency vet and it would be busy I am sure.

Good the vet lady came to the house and the kittens were just over eating.

I am having a lazy day but dad is hard at work.

Yes I do not feel like a spring chicken.

Love mon
