Well I use to write monthly emails but I seem to be behind on that, and I use to write once a week to my children but I am falling behind on that to. So what the heck I will try blogging. Maybe add a few pictures maybe get on a soap box, maybe hear from my friends (that would be nice). I hope to post once a week so that will keep me thinking of something to say. Anyway we will see how it goes.
Not much new here in Quesnel. Alanna is off to a course to become a Pharmacy Technican at a college in Kamloops. Jennifer is working at the Old Spagetti factory in Edmonton (enjoying being on her own I think).
I expect that the only people who will read my friends so with that in mind feel free to reply as I would love to know how everyone is doing.
Well till next time.
Robin

About Me
- Mad Meter Maid
- Well most people who would read this already know me. If you are reading this and don't know me you need to get a life. I am a middle aged man living in a bit of an outlying area of a small city in central BC. I am an instrument mechanic by trade. Instrument mechanics are often call meter maids and that is where the name comes from. Most of my hobbies I never get around to but it looks good don't you think. I am a liberal thinker for the most part whatever that means. I am involved in my local union. I am active in the life of my church as will likely become evident as this blog moves along. Send me a note I love to hear from people.

Hi Robin. Nice to hear from you. Trudy and I are doing well. We are both involved in a production of "Anything Goes"(Mar 29,30,31) at the Prince Rupert Performing Arts Centre, now renamed The Lester Centre for the Perfotming Arts". Trudy is on stage and for once is not playing an aged Hooker. She is currently a Mother trying to marry off her daughter into some money! Of course this has nothing to do with real life. I am working backstage, building sets and props and having a good time. The pension cheques have started to turn up and I am driving bus part-time for the school district!!
Hi Robin! Good to hear from you. Lynn & I are doing alright. We are working on our plans for summer & one thot is to drop in on you folks. Forewarned is fair warned, or so they say! Our exact plans depend on what Cathy is up to - she may be in Montreal in which case we probably will go visit her. New Brunswick is another possibility for her but that's a long drive & Lynn only gets 2 weeks in summer. We should know within the month!

Jesus is walking through heaven one day, a little bored, when he passes the Pearly Gates and sees St. Peter talking with an elderly gentleman and decides to go over and hear the man's tale.
"Where are you from, old man?" Jesus asks.
"Well, I lived my life on the shores of the Mediterranean," the old man replies.
"Hmmm. I spent some time there myself," says Jesus. "What did you do for a living?"
"Well, I was a poor carpenter," says the old man.
"Wow. So was I," says Jesus.
"And I had a son," says the old man. "Well, he wasn't my son really, but a miraculous spirit came into him and he became a very famous person."
Jesus can't hold back any longer. "Father!" he cries.
The old man falls into Jesus' outstretched arms. "Pinocchio!"
