the best medicine you could take.  I asked them if I could flunk so I could could come back. lol
The girls prepared speeches for us, made treats to mark the day and even a poem was written by
one of the guys in Mondays class

Had a lovely day in Oromocto  attending Velma's 80th birthday party .  Lovely get together
with everyone.

After the party Paula took me to a craft store, one of my favorite things to do; and of course
I got a few things, even found something for her to buy for Laurie, lol..

After we returned to Paula and Laurie's for a lovely supper which I might add Laurie made and it
was delicious, corn chowder, Paula made my favorite diet dessert which she surprised me with and
I must add the guys liked it to.  Strawberry jello (no sugar) , 1 cup boiling water and a container of
cottage cheese , let set a few hours, serve with strawberries and a dab of whip cream. delicious.

A great day.

Susan wrote me a note when I got back that Lacrosse was exciting today. Garret in finals tomorrow at
Kaye arena so better get up and going in the morning.

Tim Hortons Camp for Kids

 

 

Yesterday I walked up to my doctors in the morning, it was a nice day so after I decided to

go to Tims and have a coffee and watch the children playing various games outside, it was

kids for camp day and the staff were busy entertaining the children as well as the adults

who came in to buy coffee and enter a few ballots for prizes.

 

there were 4 baskets , one for a child, a dog, a man and a woman.  I decided since it was

fathers day I would go for the mens.  For some reason I really felt I might win.  I asked the

girl when they were drawing and she said after closing tonight but we will call you in the morning.

I thought that was strange that she would call me, lol  but figured Yes maybe you will.

 

This morning I went on to cardiac Rehab, Kate met me and we went on to Costco.  After

we dropped into the house I noticed their was a message and it was Tim Hortons, I won

the basket for the man as above. 

 

Most gifts were car cleaning supplies, gift certificate for 30.00 Rossano's, a Dooley's

letter for use of a room which we passed on to Kate, throw and pillow for travelling, set

of screwdrivers, trimmer..... shammy for car lots of clothes and sponges.

Well this morning completed the 5 km walk for Cardiac Rehab and must say it got easier after a

few loops around the pond.  A good turn out, many grads from previous years and more grads

including myself in 3 weeks. 

 

I really didn't know much about the walk till this morning and certainly will be participating

in years to come and hope next year to help more with raising money for cardiac rehab as it

certainly is a wonderful program.  This years total was 7600.00 raised.

 

I won a gift card to of all places Montana's for 25.00 ,lol  and there were many winners there

to from various donations .  The tim Horton's group were there with coffee and gave each of

us a gift card for a free coffee at any of their coffee shops.  Lots of water, energy bars and fruit

there for the walkers.

 

Believe me if any of you have a trip to Saint John for the heart you will benefit from the

cardiac program following, its for 12 weeks and certainly changes your life for the better.
