twin fun

August 20 Monday 2012 Back at the house as our furniture arrives all OK but one. Tuesday we get the kids for the afternoon while Sherri paints crown molding. We take Carter and Madison to Bear Creek park for a train ride ,water park fun and numerous swings etc. I baby sit at night for Gerry and Sherri s date night. Wednesday we get a slow start as Bill has to return to the house as he forgot his slow acting insulin (we are going boating for 2and1/2 weeks) The water proves pleasant. We check out Snug Cove on Bowen Island and there is no one there we have BYC spot to our self. REMEMBER-Live while you are alive.

Monday Bill has his doctors appointment and they are very pleased with the healing. We visit a school chum in the hospital who isn't doing too well. Makes one really thankful for what we have. Tuesday we drive first to Blaine and birch Bay then off to Bellingham where Bill enjoys the West Marine store. Then we go to Trader Joe's. We also fuel up. No problems at the border even with a 6 pack of beer each. Wednesday our furniture was to arrive not to be. Bill is getting very upset. They promise it Next Monday so we will see. Sherri has a belated birthday cake for me.The kids helped to decorate it. We spend the night on the boat. Thursday we fuel up then go to Clemintine up Indian Arm until Sunday. Weather wonderful REMEMBER-live everyday as if it's your last chance to make someone happy.

painting fun on the boat

August 9 Thursday 2012 We spent 15 consecutive days on the boat before returning to BYC. Bill has a doctors appointment for his leg and a testosterone shot. We will get a chance to be with the twins. We phone the furniture place and they will deliver the stuff Wednesday morning. Our time on the boat was relaxing. At Gibson's I got to have mussels and clams for my birthday dinner. Yum. Ekins was fun too as one day we watched 7 river otters frolicking. We had a thunder and lighting show Wednesday night. It was comforting to be tied to a dock. I painted one small picture and rock eyeballs for the twins for Halloween. The satalite dish didn't work and had to be rebooted back at the club. WIFI and the phone had no signal either. REMEMBER-Laugh uncontrollably, it clears the mind.

They make the best of everything's
