Today a beautiful day, perfect weather, and a great excursion with the cecn that is Chateauguay English Community Network, out for lunch at a brasserie in the boonies, or I should say out towards the Ormstown area. The bus ride with neighbours and friends from Chateauguay - the lunch,at St. Ambroise Abby ... the chocolatier - think in St. Remi, the apple picking at Macmillans, and last but not least the bakerie in Ormstown ?? all was fun and interesting, and best of all Mac enjoyed the whole day..although...
At breakfast he said, "by the way, where did I meet you, and when??" Well I gave the usual answer, we met at Pine Beach in Dorval many years ago, "no no" he said, "I mean just recently, say about 5 or 6 days ago it was i'm sure that I met you" I said, o.k. that's good you met me...Mac answered, "yes it's wonderful", I said, well actually you did meet me many years ago, but you've lost that memory", "yes, yes' said mac, I know that, and that's whiy it's good that I met you AGAIN...it's great. ' Oh yes, and who lives here besides just you and I, - like I mean besides us..' 'Well it's just you and I, although our family, our kids and grandkids come to visit" ' who are they, said Mac - So i started to enumerate, and he said, no no, - what about that man Les McConnell, does he live here sometimes..Well he is our son - and he is a financial planner, he comes to visit us and then we sometimes talk finances...'oh no said Mac, are you telling me he is my son, or your son"...Then as I attempted to say he is "our son"...the cat started to meow to go out...good thing, we needed a distraction.
Some distraction, as when he did get out he managed to get away still tied to the spike that is usually in the grass...just as we were trying to get away ourselves..but after a 5 min search....All's well that ends well, I found the spike and followed the line behind some bushes and there was Mischa, the brat cat just in time, as our friend and neighbour Susanna was at the door to whisk us off to our lovely day.
Tonight we have another little problem which hopefully will be solved before bed, the bank statement arrived, and Mac was perusing it before watching t.v., I just went down to get it ...and it's gone,,,fun and games, gnite
