Dupont:
Not doing much this last while. My big event was managing to thread a needle and put the few stitches in the black turtleneck for R. It has been sitting in plain sight bugging me! Mostly I just cook, clean up cobwebs as they appear - sunlight helps!, spend interminable time on FB and dealing with emails/petitions and, managing to unsubscribe the odd email. The latest refuses to be found/go away. Maybe add to list of junk or whatever they call it - requires remembering how, which would take longer than a lot of deletes!

We would have left for Beaver tomorrow BUT....! R does not mind snow! But I would have to drive lest I have too many hemorrhages along the way... I have spent a lot of time today looking at, trying to find, road condition sites that are helpful. Bottom line, for me, is not until Sunday! Just got a text re weather warning from the electric provider in Ontario.

Asked neighbour to pick up what Kelly was going to drop off for me so I have my new Turtle t-shirt to wear - in case the small store is closed for a few days. The thrift shops will ALL be closed the week except the big one - in case R needs to buy books. Mind, he has numerous boxes of books in his library there.

I hope we can stay through to the 2nd but R may have to deal with business... Surely not during this holiday week???? I am having conflicting feelings about Beaver/Dupont. I would like to be able to stay there - go back and stay there for a few weeks BUT ----My life is full of "BUTs"! R seems very fragile as business stuffs hit the fan - repeatedly and I try to figure out how to help him deal with the uncope-able. Mostly just listen and try to get enough pieces of the puzzle to understand. I hope getting away for a week will help him.

I sleep, I make BF, I watch to make sure he fastens his seat belt, then I fill the day with FB and the odd bit of this and that - replanting, watering, bringing in some firewood, And delighting in the Solstice!!
