You had a busy day after finally arriving home.

Thank you for the tip in the grocery store. I shall look out for the Black Triangles with a T inside, hopefully they are not on the few foods that I can purchase in the Independent store.

Life is changing so fast, how do we manage to keep up with it all?

At 10pm I shall watch the CBC news to hear what Trump has thrown at us, at 6pm his was his usual self talking vaguely about how every Country has been taking USA money away from their ownership, "Its just not Fair, so now we have to get it all back".

Is he a complete idiot not to understand how it will hurt both sides with his Tariffs, also he said "what a lovely word". He must be 6 years old!

Have a good sleep in your own bed!

Tomorrow I have to deal with Income tax papers, such is life!

Thank you for the beautiful photo of the old "Queen Mary'. Just after WW2, I used to watch her leave The Solent, in Southampton, while staying with a school friend of mine during school holidays, they lived on a high hill overlooking The Solent.

She and the "New Queen Elizabeth "were troop ships back and forth to New York during the War. My Aunt Gladys (Daddy's sister) sailed in her on her Maiden Voyage; I also was given a cardboard model of showing every compartment on each floor all in the correct colours, the restaurants were large and showed each table. Unfortunately the weekend we moved into Almonte the sewers backed up into the basement where we lost many boxes of odds and ends.  That was on the corner of Farm ST. and Brae St., just behind the Bank of Montreal. A few days later the" Town discovered that our rented house had never been attached to the town's main sewers in the 1930's! 

Old Mr McGregor, who lived on the other side of Brae Stf, first response  when told the problem was "No wonder I always had such great Vegetables!"

That was August 1978!

Hopefully all will be as you expect. 

One "small"  difference, snow is forecast on Wednesday for Eastern Ontario.  Today is sunny and just below Freezing.

Take care, you are Almost Home.
