Hump Day once again and the sun is trying to come out but the loos of the sky the clouds are going to take over once again and it will rain... that was the first and only sentence I got to write this morning when I sat having tea before I headed up to mom and dad's... for a good part of the morning...
Yesterday was unreal with the rain... at times as I looked out the window I had to take a second look just to make sure it was still raining and not snowing that is how hard it was coming down... but that is okay I would rather have the rain over snow at this time of the year... any way the snow has to wait until Carl comes back... if not who the heck is going to shovel it... like not me... LOL.... Our little ditch around the house looked like a raging river for a while... totally amazing and of course I didn't take one picture of it ... duh me...
Updates on Mom and dad... not a lot with mom since she has no appointments for the next two weeks and I wonder who is smiling at that one... hmmmm her and me actually... but dad had a few of them this week... the first one was on Monday and all went ever well with that one which is always nice to hear... I will tell you as it was told to me... the kidney is working better then before and what ever he is doing to continue to do it because it seems to be working... in other words... stay on your diet dad he he.... then yesterday he had an appointment with the skin doctor... which I think it was a she not sure here... but I think I heard she said... some where in the conversation ... any way she gave him a cream for the rash that he has on his legs... and a new kind of sock for his legs...which he got this morning.... and then some bdy cream as well... that is from all the meds that he is on that is causing it...
While dad and Roger was out doing their thing this morning Mom and I headed out for a hearing aid cleaning and a surprise drop in with coffee at Flo... Her father is looking awesome and is doing just as good.. it was their last day being hooked up with Saint John's Hospital.. and I am sure there was a little dance for joy over that one...
We had a surprise visitor as well at Mom and Dad's today... Yvette actually came up... it was so nice seeing her since we have not since Thanksgiving... and she showed up just in time for lunch so poor mom and dad had Roger, Patsy, Yvette and I for lunch... wondering if mom went for a pill after we left... I am sure her head was splitting after all 4 nuts around the table LOl....
Since Carl has left I can't find the belt that I have been wearing... so I just assumed that I packed it with his stuff... and the only one that was left around was the one that is just a little too small to wear... you know like the jeans that are just a little too tight around the waist and when you wear them you feel like you just walked out of an all you can eat buffet well that is how the belt felt and it was uncomfortable period.... well I asked Carl tonight if I packed it with his but he said no.... hmmmm where did I put it... but I am not looking any more I say with a smile because City Leather got some business from me today... not one belt I got two of them...
About 10 years ago I used to talk this gentleman from Aussie Land (and no family who is reading this was not THAT Aussie) and one day I was complaining about something or other and he said to me... that I needed to feel good about things that I do... so he told me the next time I went to this Tim Hortons to buy a coffee for the next person that came in... that is all I was to say was I want to buy a coffee to the next person and tell them to have a nice day... in truth it felt good but I didn't really know how the one that was getting it felt until about a year later when I went in to get my Hot Chocolate and the manager passed me the drink, smiled and said Have a Nice Day.... I am be simple but boy did that feel good... so since then I have been making a point a few times a week to buy the person behind me as long as it is someone that I don't know a coffee.... today was no different... I paid for someones coffee but this time I noticed that he was following me...I ran the Yellow light so he couldn't catch up to me... it is more fun... being unknown...
So here is your assignment readers... tomorrow when you go out into this crazy world of ours... do something for someone that you don't know... buy them a coffee... open a door... help with packages... take a cart from an elderly person so they don't have to walk across two three lands to put it in the parking thingy... just do something for someone you don't know... smile at someone that you passed... like I told a young fellow that works at the local corner store one day.. that may be the only smile that this person has seen all day... when you have been served on do as dad does each and every time.... wish them to have a wonderful day.. . I really believe that it may make a little difference in someones life...
Well that is it for me... Have a Wonderful day tomorrow all... Hugs Jo
