so soon we forget

Watching the foorball game and forgot about writing my blog. It appears that this is a bad memory day. Ray and I went out and Matthew and family came to visit. I totally forgot they were coming.  I am so ashamed. It is still a very faint memory  in my brain....so many things to remember and people to call.
I hope they will forgive me.
The nurse was a bit late this morning so that slowed us down. Then we decided to check out the casino to see if they had a self contained washroom for handicapped people as Ray still needs to help me somethimes with the bag. They did and we became captured of course and stayed for a bit. We had a big bowl of vanilla ice cream...mmmm it was so good. We needed the nourishment LOL.
Not quite vanilla but wonderful nonethe less, even if it is winter.
Our game  is starting to fall apart,sob,sob. They really need to pull it all together.
I am thinkin of taking all my quilting magazines to the guild sor anyone who wants them. I need to clean up my stuff, fabric included. So maybe I can get one of the ladies who are supposed to help me and Ray to get me started. I'll never in my life use all the fabric and it takes up space. Another thing I want to clear away is my china cabinet, so many dishes that are lovely but seldom used now. And you probably know the kids don't want any of it. My friends all tell me the same thing, their kids don't want their lovely things either. Tastes change.
I'll let you know how it all comes out, but don't hold your breath haha.
Hurrah, we just got a touchdown, brings us into a safer zone. I like a reasonable sized lead LOL.
Covered stadium,no weather there. How nice it must be to watch the game out of the rain and snow. No snow here but I have watched some games where the snow was falling and the field was freezing and very slippery. The score is 24 B.C. and 9 for Winnipeg. It is the last quarter of the game. but anything can happen, it ain't over 'til the fat lady sings according to Yogi Berra , long deceased, but remembered for his pithy comments.
This is the sports commentary for tonight  until the final score.
Have a great evening folks!!
Guten Abend.
Final score!!!!
BC 34 Winnipeg 23.
Winnipeg got 2 touchdowns in the last three minutes of the game too bad they couldn't get started that way but they fought hard.
And we won!!!! 2011 Grey Cup champions.
And I forgot to tell you I had a winning experience today. I walked by myself ,no walker and hung onto the railing from the back of the apartment to the front room. Progress!!!

Any time my kids want to borrow something, it's theres. Whether they want to keep it or not, if it leaves here it can't come back.
