IT WAS A LOOOOONG MOVING DAY

BAYFIELD'S SUNDAY REGATTA JUST OFF SHORE

Today was the day we moved my Uncle Harry from his assisted living place in Woodstock Ontario to a nursing home in Mitchell.  It was a very looooong 10 hour day but everything went better than expected & Harry was a true trooper as his whole world changed around him in just a matter of hours. I am soooooo totally tired tonight that I'm going to make this a short blog.  I will post some comments about today's activities in a later blog.  But first, a couple of things.

HARRY'S LAST 3 GAMES OF POOL AT PARK PLACE WITH A STAFF MEMBER THIS MORNING....& HE WON ALL 3:))

I had hoped to post a second blog tonight with the photos from my time aboard the Coast Guard vessel on Sunday but that is going to have to wait until tomorrow now.   I also have to get to the bottom of my blog publishing problems!!

For all you Live Writer users out there, be sure to read RICK'S blog today.  He clears up some questions people have had & explains in easy terms the workings of Live Writer.  In fact, Rick is probably going to do a second follow up blog because of additional questions coming in.  I am hoping WAYNE & ROBERTA are reading this because they had emailed me about a week ago with the very same question Rick has answered so well in today's blog about photo sizing.  I've been feeling bad that I hadn't got back to them:((  Rick for sure is the 'Go To' guy for anyone out there with Live Writer questions.  And I am for sure the 'Go To' guy if you need to know how to build yourself a great soy shake for breakfast in the morning:))  Of course there might be those of you who would disagree with that I'm sure..:((

green vegetables smelled as good as bacon & did you know a raisin is nothing more than a grape with a sunburn!!

  2. Hope they have a pool table at Uncle Harry's new digs.

    I love sunburnt grapes, especially if they are covered in dark chocolate. :)

    You deserve a rest after such a draining day. Sleep well!

    Langdon is a really, really cute kid!

  4. I am sure you are tired. You worked hard both physically and emotionally and deserve a great nights sleep. My Dad loved to play pool also. Love it!! Played it with his pals until a month before he died. Your Uncle Harry is a Super Fellow!! God Bless Him!

  5. Langdon is one truly beautiful grandchild!!

    Al, after watching your video of how to make a breakfast soy shake in one of your blogs last year, I would classify you as the "run from" guy as it looked absolutely horrible to me. Worse than Jerry's "Peanut Butter and Onion" sandwiches. No offense, but....!

    Very happy to hear Uncle Harry is all moved in and doing well. That's great news!

  7. I KNOOoooow how you feel. It's hard to do the things we know are important for those we love.It takes the stuffing right out of you. Uncle Harry is likely a super wonderful kinda guy to help in this transition.

    Hope you can rest up.

  9. Glad Uncle Harry handled the move well it is not easy for the elderly to up and move from a place they have been living at and have all their friends.

    Your grandson is absolutely beautiful.

    Yes I did see both of Ricks posts and they are very helpful. Please do not feel bad about not having had the time to respond to my question you certainly have had your hands full lately.
