memories

 

We may not remember what we had for lunch or where we put our glasses but everyone here has special memories some happy and some unhappy  They have all had adventures they can recall.  Ken remembers being in the army and going to Catholic school and having to remember scripture,  I tease him that he probably cannot remember them.  I sure do he replies one I will never forget and that was Jesus wept.

Dad was a great one for remembering his adventures

I remember the summer, a very hot summer in Saskatoon when I couldn't go swimming because I had a huge cast on my leg,  Our neighbor had been cutting down a tree when the axe flew out of his hand right over to where I was and cut my leg.  I felt no pain but was hopping up and down on one leg. They tied a bandage around to stop the bleeding, They rushed me to the hospital and after bought me an ice cream cone.  That I remember.

I was just thinking about you getting cut by the axe a few days ago. How strange you wrote about it.

That must have been so scary for you and the adults too. Thankfully you were ok.

We are watching the baseball game at our neighbour’s house this afternoon. Hamlet’s favorite team made it to the World Series.

Good memories and bad, both together. Did your leg break? Why did you need a cast?

Yes, I remember asking about the dent in your leg. And you told me a version of that story.
