Well good morning, kinda fell behind schedule yesterday.  Seems God decided that everyone was getting very tired and needed to take control.  In other words, we turned the throttle back a notch or two!  This is ok, it gives every one some time to recuperate and get some strength back.  We got everything done outside except the painting, and I should be able to puts away at that this week.
  This morning Dad is going to take me into the big city, where I can pick up some paint brushes and ""RV" antifreeze, to have on hand at the lake.  This is for my fifth wheel, so it will be readily available when we do the final close up for the winter!
  I may do a bit of painting when we return from shopping this morning, but I plan on taking a more relaxed approach today.  Mom and Dad are leaving early for the start of their return trip to British Columbia, so they should have a bit of a rest before their departure.
  We have been so busy around here as of late, that I have not had any recent updates from Nicole on the busy schedule of Mr Boots (the cat).  But rest assured, knowing Nicole and Nathan (his parents) he has probably retaken his kingdom (house).  And I am sure he expects to be fed in a timely fashion!  They spoil him, the big baby.  Especially on weekends, when the "Riders" are playing!  This way he can curl up on Nathan's lap and watch the game (Canadian football).  Just wondering Nicole when will you be Painting a Rider green logo on Boots for the game, or does this already happen?
  After Susan goes to work this afternoon I will see if Mom and Dad want to go into the big city to see their Grandson for a half hour or so while he is working on his deck.  He is working two jobs this weekend, and is trying to get his front deck project completed at the same time.  Anyways he phoned yesterday and I forgot to mention it to his grandparents, darned memory anyways!
  So the big list is definitely growing shorter, just a bunch of loose ends to finish tidying up around here this week!  Then I should be able to go to the lake, and enjoy the end of this season there, tidy up some loose ends there.  Then perhaps try and enjoy some fall golfing, God permitting.  Enjoy those few remaining weekends of the fall season at the lake, with the love of my life!  Then it will be back home, to concentrate on trying to get projects finished here, as we prepare for our next stage in our lives at Building the Simple life.....................
