Sunday April 15th

Today was the wind up for the curling club - I did not go. I took my mother to Elora to play bingo. Needless to say, we came up empty handed. However...the bingo is held at the Grand River Casino, so of course my mother had to stop. For a change, I played the 25 cent slots rather than the dollar slots, so I didn't blow a bundle. My mother on the other hand...came home with $250 clear. I swear she has horse shoes where the sun doesn't shine.

On the home front, Grace is still living at home. Larry wanted to ask her to leave because of the ferret. I did not agree, so she is still here. But he isn't talking to her. He completely ignores her and won't eat a meal with her.

Hah!

My insurance exam is over. Grace bought a ferret. Larry is in North Carolina golfing. Paul is back in school. Hopefully things are improving everywhere.

I did the most uncharacteristic thing yesterday. On my way home from Guelph where I wrote my exam, I stopped in at Zellers to pick up a few things. I bought a Johnny Cash cd for $5. Imagine me, the ultimate baby boomer who loves the Beatles and the Everly Brothers, buying a country and western album. It was a collection of duets with various stars like June Carter Cash, Emmylou Harris, Waylon Jennings etc. On the way home today I put the cd in and cranked it up and sang along. No need to know the words, the chorus is all the same..."WHERE DID WE GO RIGHT?" hmm...must be going senile. Just the fact that I'm singing along means that my lethargy is fading. Spring must be coming.
