BUT



we have just had a 6.7 earthquake :-0


It was apparently around the southern part of Vancouver Island, but has also been felt here in Vancouver


The earth did not move for me!

Oooops - that was a 'biggy' Sylvia!!

Glad you are O.K. but it's a shame though as you could have done with an 'earth moving' experience just at this time !! ;-)

Thinking of you!!

Thought I was going to have an 'easier' dfay today !!

Grandson arriving around 8am - take him to playgoup for 12.30

Pick up grandson at 3.15 BUT pick up grand-daughter from another location - also at 3.15 !!!

He decided at 11.30 he needed a sleep but then he changed his mind - then decided he wanted one but it was too late so we had to keep him awake !

Took grandson to playgroup - stayed for a couple of minutes to see how crucial the pick up time was which gave him just enough time to change his mind about wanting to stay and come back to me, flooded with tears, arms around my leg and not wanting to let me go !!!

Finally escaped !

Husband dropped me off early to pick him up and went on to find grand-daughter and I sat on the step for 10 minutes !

He had had a lovely time so we sat on the step outside his playgroup for another 10 minutes waiting for grandad to come back to collect us !

Got home - they wanted the paddling pool out so 'all hell broke loose' for an hour while they drenched each other, and us !! - LOTS of squeals !!!

Finally gave them tea - several 'bombs' had hit the house in the meanwhile.

Took them home to find out what was happening on son's 'job problem' that I am helping to sort out !!

In the meanwhile, made several phone calls - still trying to sort out my brother's things - won't bore you with those details!!!

Anyway, all in all, a VERY tiring day !!!

I is still here though !!!"

Hope everyone is doing fine !
