So close...

Pati, to witness this excitement must have been something else...It proves that it can happen. Even with Lottery tickets there is someone who wins and it could be us?? Just waiting our turn I guess haha! Speaking of which I must get to the Lottery store today or i'll miss out for sure. I have been working in the yard and with nice weather it doesn't take long to see the entire day dissolve. Although yesterday, i thought we were maybe getting the remains of those strong winds coming from the west as it blew and blew and the leaves circling around made me think of what hurricanes or better yet, what a tornado would do. But slowly and surely some headway is being made. Harry was able to empty all the waterbarrels so that was a good job done. The water just went down the driveway and onto the road but was quickly dried up with the winds. I should be able to get more done today (fingers crossed)
Tomorrow will be taken up with my Luncheon and then going for Mosaic Tiles Harry arranged with a lady artist. I guess he plans to take up mosaic art over the winter?
Pati are you planning to attend the Grand Opening of C2 Centre for Craft planned for October 28. I check that blog and also got an email ( because i signed up for them haha!) with the details. 
Forgot to mention that I had my hair cut on Wednesday. Just after my dentist appointment I called the salon and she said come in right now and i can do it. So off I ran!  Then that same morning i drove over to have a cup of tea with dear old Daisy and her granddaughter who were up for about a week from Toronto. Daisy is looking good and gaining a bit of weight and i am glad she is being cared for by her family. Daisy would like to be at her own home for good and expressed to me why she couldn't be left on her own "What have a done that they won't leave me to my myself? " The Geriatric Specialist in Toronto told the family that Daisy is only bordering between mild and moderate dementia.
Well, early morning here and I plan to make another spinach scramble for my breakfast.  I have a set of scales that i check each morning and I have a feeling they are defective - one morning they said a weight and the next morning it was 10 lbs lighter and the next morning it was 8 lbs heavier. I am sure ones weight does not vary to that degree on a daily basis??  
Take care - what is everyone doing for the weekend. Cathy do you have your yard cleaned up for winter? Maybe we should just say to heck with it, and let it fend for itself? But then i wouldn't be able to move the snow come winter. Can't win.
