Last Day of Vacation

Last day of vacation ; it went far too quickly !! While I am sitting ere composing this, the three grandchildren are watching somesthing on tv. GD came down at 6:00 am ! I sent her up but the next thing you know she was back down with YGS to uses the bathroom; sent both of them up. The two monkeys stayed up for about 5 minutes but found it too boring to lay in bed, so back down they came ! Next thing you know, EGS was down !! Our day has begun !

We've had absolutely gorgeous weather. Yesterday was up over 21*C. Now we have to hope for some rain as parts of the garden beds are bone dry. The Lily of the Valley  are poking throuogh, the Rhubarb is crowning and two of the newest rose bushes are beginning to bud out. A full month aahead of schedule. No more leaves have been  raked as we have to room to put them. I must check to see if there is compost pick up this week. Rain is predicted for  Monday afternoon so I may try today to get a few more leaves done and put into the garbage can. 

I've sewn 195 hexagons  so far.I suppose I could have sewn more but quickly read 3 books ! I couldn't put them down ! Haven't done that for a long time but I so enjoyed it. When I get back to school I will photocopy a sheet of hexagons so I do not have to keep tracing them out. 

Hopefully ED will soon buy the income tax program and we can all get our taxes done. She has not been feeling well with the flu and now a cold. Yesterday she and ES went to the Beer Festival. She was saying she is glad she won the tickets as it was certainly not worth the price. YS has been to the physiotherapist and put in traction. He is slowly getting better but certainly not ready for work on Monday morning. 

The latest saga for the armpit of NOrthern Ontario. The egg donor just suddenly showed up on Good Friday and dropped her daughter off at her father's house She walked into the house with a ' Hi Grandma" Thsi grandma was supposed to go to work at the nursing home but had to switch shifts with someone. The father who has legal custody is too busy out partying and all that goes with it. Poor little girl.

Time to get the waffles going. It has become a tradition with the grandkids and a sleepover.
