Good Sunday morninig to allWhat a rushing morning, my father, my son with his dad, and Richard were all at the kitchen table exchanging stories this morning. Now Richard and my son are gone to cut wood for the winter in the bush. My dad left, along with Robert my ex. Peace and Quiet at last. Maggie and I are home alone, and we need to clean up this place.Richard had the weekend off, so since yesterday it was rainning most of the day, we spent the day watching movies, and then went out for supper, it was a great day.Today the sun is shinning, and I need to clean my house. Just waiting for the pain killers to kick in, it does take a while. I hope everyone is having a pain and side free day.Later.....

Sorry you\'re in pain. Me too. It\'s my hips and sciatica. I had to hit the depression boards for support Friday night and have spent most of the time since in the bed and back on the morphine. Hope your pain killers kick in soon.

Hello Mckenzie,
I\'m amazed at how civilized you all are. The mere sight of my ex (the 2nd) makes me feel physically sick (I attended my daughter\'s wedding by hiding up in the loft of the Cathedral-above the organist: that will be the last time I ever get up there too-used to sing in the Choir as a kid! (& always in trouble for running up steep narrow stairway!) Last year I needed a stick! You must have to cut dozens of tons of wood - I was amazed at the size of the houses in Montreal-3 stories of it: all to be heated!-the furnace was dated 1908! (Luckily you have all those acres-home grown fuel!) The cost of the heating oil was horrendous=- that I was told that it was subsidized as well! - I thought there was no sense in heating downstairs - but we couldn\'t turn it off. My cleaner was sick on Wed. last week - so by next Wed week it will be v.dirty! I can\'t do it, so I will just try to be careful - I get Govt. help - 1 hr. per fortnight: it used to be free but is now 5 dollars.(Big deal) Previously I had a young Sudanese girl; friend of next door neighbours - she was so thorough that she dusted my heavy curtains - & turned up cobwebs! I got hysterical with laughter - because I keep pet huntsman spiders to keep the spinners away: not with too much success..Oh Dear! Gales, still & more gales coming: bad for the joints. I just stay in bed when it gets really bed, but I must get to the dental mechanic & get a lower plate. Hope you soon know what is causing all the pain you are getting - I recall that you have an appt. coming up! Do not overdo the housework =it will be there when you are dear dear woman! Take care, Fond regards JaneD.

Yes the weather definately does some kind of number on the chronic pain.
We need 18 to 20 cords of wood for the entire winter.
We have a large basement, and 3 bedroom home, kitchen, washroom and two walking closet that are full, I need to give away clothes and stuff that has been sitting there for years.
One day we will finish the basement.
Right now, it\'s not quite finish enough to bring down my living room furniture, but one day soon, I hope.
This way I could put my extentions on my wood table and do a nice dinning room where my living room is now.
Did some paper work for my ex this am, phone calls ect.... Now later I need to go out banking and food shopping.
Later......
