What a great Sunday

I've worked a lot this week ands was very tired. But today is Sunday. A day of rest. This morning George and I went to Church. It was good as always. We are truly blessed to have such good pastors. The worship was so meaningful. After lunch George and I and Barb went to McDonald's for lunch where we ran into Frank and Barb Wright. They were there with another couple from Church. This morning our pastor announced that there was a community prayer meeting at the school administration building to pray for our schools and children and for the board etc. So George and I went. It was really meaningful. It was lead by two school board trustees. Then we finished by doing a prayer walk around the building.. Frank and Barb were there too. So we invited them home for supper. They had their dog Cookie with them. We had so much fun. In the middle of our meal, Barb got up to use the washroom. All of a sudden the squirrel alarm went off inside the house letting us know that a squirrel had been caught.Barb jumped off the toilet and came out and asked if the alarm meant if there was a time limit for using the washroom. Needless to say we all left the table and ran to look out the window to see the squirrel in it's cage. Frank just kept eating his soup.LOL. Then George, Frank and our Barb got in the car and took the squirrel away. Barb and I sat at the kitchen visiting until they came back and we carried on with our dessert. This was followed by interesting dance revolution. Frank and Barb left to go to Brian Derksen's house and George and I drove to Ellwood park and walked the trail. What a beautiful sunny day. Today I feel blessed. I wish everyone a great week.

Little bits of updates

It's a great Sunday. The sun is shining but the air is cool. This morning we went to Church. It was a great service as always. Visited a bit with our friends Speed and Linda. Danielle and Curtis have now moved back to her house in Victoria. Lewis, Paul's youngest son had his baby dedication last Sunday. Elias, Danielle' youngest son is having a birthday this week. Linda's brother Art(Art and Helen) Dick is still taking chemo and radiation for his bowel cancer and he has been diagnosed with non lymphatic hodgkins disease. Apparently the doctor told him the tumor in his stomach is inoperable and he has at the very most a year to live.Last nite around ten o'clock in the evening my brother Ernie phoned to say that it had been Teresa's wedding that afternoon. Apparently it was at the Alliance Church in Chilliwack. He is bringing pictures to my birthday party in May.It was a good size wedding. It started at 2:00p[m. then there was an hour in between and then they ate at the Church and he said they just got home at ten. Apparently they are going on a honeymoon in a little while.We had a great time at Sonya and Gary's house. I even won one game of Settlers. We had a good visit with George's sister and brother in law in Vernon. Unfortunately I had to come home and go to work. It turns out I missed the spring cleaning day and no residential staff turned up, probably because it was voluntary. So a whole bunch of the cleaning didn't get done and she made a long list and assigned it to all of us what and when we can do it. Apparently I'm supposed to do all of my work between 11-12pm on my night shifts for the next 3 shifts. I phoned my union about it and it turns out that on a sleepover you are not to do any work until you get up in the morning. that's why you get paid less for it. The manager has been making us work every night shift for an hour for the last 4 years which is against the union contract. The big wig from the head office has phoned her and told her to stop immediately or it's going to grievance. It means now when I go to work it's slightly stressful but justice must prevail. I just took Roxy for a nice walk. My tulips look so pretty and my rhubarb is so healthy looking. Well I better go. Have a great week everybody. God bless. Marge
