June 15

This has been one of my jobs for the past month, although I have had a reprieve in the last week.  Yesterday's walk (above) was with SR, who threw little Timber in the lake - his first experience of swimming.  (I can't say he liked it very much although he was thrown in twice).  Lily on the other hand loves to swim so fetched those sticks with pleasure.

Haven't written much lately as I probably said in the last post,  as I am quite busy.  Just bought a house although not moving in till Sep 15th.  And selling my house.  Listing it privately on Monday, then an Open House on the weekend coming.  Getting some repairs on my deck this weekend, then have to paint it then clean the house then, then, then.

For those that don't know Brooke is now on bed rest in a Vancouver hospital.  She is growing bigger every day and is probably getting more and more bored every day as she is usually a go getter.  It must be difficult just resting all day long.  In turn, I am helping out at home - with the house if necessary, with the yard when the lawn grows and with the dogs if no one else is around to look after them.

And along with all the above, World Cup 2014 in Brazil has begun.  So am attempting to watch as many games as possible.  Yesterday there were 4 games played (my team lost boohoo).   Best soccer in the world being played here so don't want to miss too much of it.  Two new things added to this World Cup is goal line cameras and disappearing foam, all to make the game more fair.

So I will try to be more vigilant at keeping a blog going but to top things off it IS SUMMER.  Time for outside activities and loving every minute of it.  But I will try.
