Home Alone

Well actually at work but I will be alone when I get home as Lois has gone down to Kamloops to see Alanna. They are doing some sewing as Alanna needs cloths to wear for her practicum like a white blouse and black slacks. She only has about one month left in Kamloops and I think that she is looking forward to coming home. Both the practical parts of her course are here in Quesnel.



I agreed to work a shift tonight (Saturday) as it pays well. I really don't like shift work as it leaves me tiered and it can be really boring. I haven't had any calls yet and I still have six hours to go. I suppose that I could work on this all night but I really don't have all that much to say.


For those of you who know Rev Rob Pollock ( a distant cousin of mine) he now has a blog @ http://www.rob-pollock.blogspot.com/ if you want to check it out.

Birthday

Last weekend was Alanna's birthday. I had some time off so I went over to Kamloops to get her. We had a get together at 10Mile Lake which is always a favorite. The Peeke-Vouts, the McRaes and Cheryl and Kendal Sheldon were there and a good time was had by all. I had big plans to take some pictures and see if I could add them here but the camera's battery was dead. Don (Alanna's boyfriend) was good enough to send me some.





In other news the garden is slowly coming along. I have potatoes, peas, beans, spinach, onions, beets, and carrots all showing signs of life. I had to put up a bit of a fence yesterday as the neighbour's new puppy likes to dig up my potatoes. I still need to think of some way to put up for a gate as Lois will have trouble stepping over the top.





Lois and Pat Peeke-Vout have been very busy putting together sailor costumes for the big 40's musical that they are putting on this year. The group has been working really hard on the show with rehearsals almost everyday for the last couple of months. I am looking forward to it and will keep you posted on how it goes.

Well that's about it from here.
