 The weekend has passed and guys still sick.  Malcolm Jr home again today from work. downstairs looks like a mess woith bedding and wash to go on to get rid of germs I hope. But I have not caught it.  

Had several emails from friends lots going on in their lives but its quiet here

Jaxson went to Pappa Norms for a visit , its nice he and casey have contact with his great grandparents, as they only have Susan and Rob as grandparents.  

We had some snow last night but its starting to go, spring is in the air.  we hope..  

Tidal Seniors

 Today Thursday the 27th of March and woke up to a blanket of snow.  It was pretty but roads were not the best.  Rosina called that she figured she would not go to Seniors. 

In the meantime Malcolm Jr got up and said he went to dr yesterday and got antibodics. he felt a bit better so I put a call in to our dr for Malcolm Sr as he has been coughing and coughing over a week now and no  better, he has appt at 11:30 thank goodness.

Called Susan and she is full of cold and said Kate's class is cancelled today so Casey still went to sitters so Kate can do some studying at home.  

I am going to read my book. The Inmate by Freda McFadden, never have I had an interest in books until Mary lent me this authors books and I read 2 completely. The perfect son and the Sarogate, wow great reads.

Well not much else planned today so have a good day everyone.

The weekend

 Well the weekend has past and both Malcolms have been so sick with the cold and Flu, we havent seen our great grandkids in over a week.

Pat Daley came down from Miramichi despite the colds around here with her daughter and family and we went to homestead on Friday night for liver and onions and it was so good. We came back to the house for dessert but to full to eat coconut pie from McBuns bakery so we sat and watched some of the curling on tv and watched Canada come that much closer to winning the title in Korea which by Sunday they did.

Saturday Pat and Malcolm went off to costco and later I went to M and M's with Pat, she loaded up on groceries while in Moncton . Kelly her daughter and family  came down to celebrate her granddaughters birthday with a chance to see the magic show at the Avenir Center, they enjoyed it.

Over in Riverview Susan was making bread and rolls, cinnimon buns and ravoli, I guess it went as fast as she cooked it with her friend Shannon looked some good hope we get a sample. 

Pat left on sunday and we watched some more curling.  I love that sport

 

 

colds hit the house

 Well malcolm Jr was suppose to go on holidays and ended up spending his holidays in bed with a cold and I think the flu, he feels terrible all week and now Malcolm Sr is sick with it to, think I am on the verge but taking pills to try and cut it off.

We got a call yesterday that Casey's babysitter was sick so could we mind im but we have the cold here so Rob took a day off and Susan a day today to look after the little tike.  He is so good to look after.

Pat Daley is arriving tomorrow for the weekend and I did worn her we are a sick house but she says she is coming anyway, think she wants to get out of Miramichi  for a few days .

We will go out for supper tomorrow night  to swiss chalet or across to homestead will be her choice.comr home for dessert and talk the night away.

Malcolm Jr has a birthday

 Well wednesday Malcolm Jr turned 54, whow time flies.  He was working till 8:30 so we waited till today to celebrate with pizza and cake. 

The children are loving these birthdays to help blow out the candles.  

Tomorrow Mary Jayne and Boyd are heading ths way for lunch and hockey game. Its been awhile sinc they were up so excited to spend time with them.  They were going to come my birthday but weather was not good for any travelling.  

This week we were back to Tidal seniors on Thursday, so happy to be back and see everyone.  A guest speaker and he was excellant and a good speaker.  Bev was so pleased to have her caratacts done and see everything so good.  

Kate did good this week at her course at the nursimng home, got 76% on a test and made her happy.Casey is doing well at the babysitters and four little girls certainly keep him entertained.  Jaxson is picked up by grampie and comes to our house, he plays a game with grampie to spot the house before he gets there.Nanny made chocolate chip cookies for him this week which he enjoyed very much. Boy those two boys bring joy to the family.

Busy day for everyone

 The morning  started out with a call from Kate, Scott going on a course for first aid so could they come over.  Trent out of town could Newton come over when Vero goes to work. 

Poor Malcolm was the driver for all getting Costco orders and drive home.  Tonight

sunday and the Briars curling continues

 Its Sunday and Malcolm is making Chili, the kids drop in as Jaxson knew when going pass the house

that it was our house, Malcolm always plays hide and seek with him and he always says theres our house

grampie.  Watching the final games of the Briar curling and Gushue lost, he has been Canada's team for

a long while.  oh well title passes on.  Susan has been busy painting her bedroom and did a great job but

her back is sure aching tonight. Malcolm Jr gone to gym then on to Montana's , now what will he eat there, lol

Call with my doctor the next 2 days, 1 day for blood work and the next day about my sciatic nerve improvement.  A little of relief but still acts up.  Tidal seniors on Thursday will be good to get back and hopefully Mary  Jayne and Boyd arrive Saturday for hockey game.

See you next week
