ESCAPE




Life is short and we find new courage and strength every day.

There is no escaping from our garage as the door is now locked down tight.  We had no great plans for the day but dad really likes to be able to get out if he feels up to it.

There was no escaping from the dullness of the day even though there was soon white stuff still around.

Leah brightened up the day by coming and using our power saw.  She is making blocks for Ophelia.

Sandra phoned to see if we have our own phone number
back and we do not but dad's cell phone works.

Kim's car was towed away and a new hose is needed for the brake line.  She will be over tomorrow to bring Haiti and to sleep over.  She will be picked up by Theresa and family about three in the morning.  Oliver is still on his way to the Caymans.

Craig had to retrace his steps to drive to our house to see what he could do to help but the situation looks grim.  The answer seems like a new door.

Sometimes we would like to escape from our troubles while at others times we are so thankful for all we have and especially for each other.

"Kindness in words creates comfidence
Kindness in thinking produces profoundness
Kindness in giving produces love."

Sandra that is awful.
Do hope you and Shawna keep well.
That stomach flu is the worst bug ever.
Kim now has dirrehea and dad seems better.
He is out working on the garage which he likes to fix things himself if he can.

I have written myself a note about the dresser sowill ask Kim.

I am glad Seeley is recovering so hope Lincolen and Stephen will be better by tomorrow.

I feel so bad for you all.

Mary will have to decide what she wants to do. Tough decisions.
