My Day-To-Day Photos

 Jared had the day off on Monday.  On the day before that, Sunday, he showed me a new Lego set that came into Canadian Tire. A grouping of the cutest, little plants. He wanted them and I knew then and there I was going to buy them for him. The next day,  we did our walk to the mall. It was a gorgeous day. As we were walking through the park, I was struck with an intense sense of loss. This beautiful son of mine, is leaving home. Soon, both of my children will be in Edmonton.  My only sense of comfort is in knowing they will be together. I miss Tucker all the time, but having Jared dulls those feelings a bit. When they are both gone...I just don't know.  But, back to the Lego story. We got to Canadian Tire. I was testing Jared when I told him I would pay half. He was ready do it. He really wanted this set. I bought it for him. The gratitude and love that I got back from that kid was very fulfilling.  We then toured the rest of the mall for a bit and then we went home,  where we buil

 It was a real challenge to get Dusty into his harness.  He's forgotten how to use it, and he outgrew it. I had to make adjustments. But now that he's in it, he's enjoying himself. 

 I was feeling low, so I headed out to the elevator to ride with Todd.  Somehow,  we missed each other while the truck was still inside,  and he drove off without me. I caught him in the parking lot, though.  Most of the snow has melted. The countryside is in a dreary state, but it's exciting to know that the green is coming soon. I expected to see more water standing and running in the ditches, but it's already gone.

 Last week, oats were going to be hauled. But, due to a very muddy yard at Jenson's, the truck got stuck, and the oats are still at home. This week,  they called for canola, so Todd headed out very early and will be hauling the entire day, and probably tomorrow as well.  He's making good time today, with three loads in before 9:30.

 I miss Tucker. I haven't spoken to him in weeks. I should call, but he's just so busy with school. Finals are next week. I received a couple of photos of his final design project last night. though.

 Jared had a real hankering for a game of Firefly.  He beat in getting the the first goal, but I won in the end. It's such a fun game.
