Block of the Day - Propellor and it looks like a propellor don't you think. Sometimes blocks appear to look like their name and at other times it is so far off I can scarcely believe that is its name.
My laptop is back and working. We went to the store after a call that the laptop was ready to be picked up. So we picked it up and brought it home after a week away. Did it work? NO!! And I couldn't make things work so I called Tony and he said bring it in. Well we did that and there was another thing he had forgotten. So another phone call and another thing to do. I had to call Jim in Edmonton to see what the network password was. He had written a page of things I needed to know but I had to get him to point me in the right direction. By this time I had such an anger in my chest. I can't recall when I had such an anger. I think this was so incompetent and I was so upset. But finally it was all fixed and I could get on and write my blog. I hope with the hope of the terminally frustrated by things computer that I can get the blog off and onto the right page. If not Heaven knows what will happen.
Time to stop complaining.
Richard had his Run for ALS , well actually it was Betty's Run for ALS. No I have no idea who Betty is . Rick was happy with the results of the run and you can see how things went on his blog for today. Richard Is Living With ALS. He And Peter participated in the run along with many of Richard's friends. In his blog he thanked his family and friends.
After trips to London Drugs we had to go to Safeway for ice cream and strawberries LOL. Some things just insist on after treats.
So since then I have been messing around on the laptop and seeing if it all works. I am sure something will make itself known. Of course it will. Now I cannot drag the task bar down. Oh well! Maybe later. It all takes time!
Adam just called , we had a nice chat. He alwasy wants to know how Ray and I are. Both of us are still pretty healthy except for a few issues. We are so lucky to feel well. We go out every day and walk around to keep loose as it is very easy for the joints to seize up. My dad used to walk every day too and so does Marg. It is a family thing that we do. My boys have other ways to stay healthy and loose, golf being one of them, jogging another. Richard used to sail . One time he sailed around Vancouver Island which is a very large island.
Once again I am showing this photo of Rick and Kate. I love this one and it shows Richard at his best. I pray he and Ricky can go sailing once more. I know Rick wants to sail so badly.
Coffee in all its varieties. The fabrics would make a gorgeous quilt. The dark , medium and light fabrics are the hallmark of quilters everywhere.
Father's Day ties for a great Dresden Plate block. I wonder if I put this one up earlier but it looks good again.
Hanging baskets on the lampposts in Cloverdale. It looks like Victoria and is very lovely.
Another interesting street scene outside the window where we had lunch.
I'll close now since some of my photos are missing and others won't open and yet others are not downloading off the sim card unless the card is in the laptop. I am still frustrated and I'll never take my laptop to anyone again. So it is back to London Drugs. I am mad....
Have a good evening folks.
Good night.
