Sept 2, 2020

 Hello to you all, it’s been awhile since I posted. We are cruising along with Covid 19, the pandemic is   Definitely Changing how things work in our world.  Masks are becoming mandatory when you are in stores, or can’t keep the recommended 6 feet/2meters away.  I don’t get out much, trying to stay safe, I usually go to the grocery store or Walmart, and that’s about it.  Our numbers are still low in our area, and Alberta isn’t doing to bad in our numbers of infected.  

School has started with staggered starts, with masks monitory. And of course hand washing and sanitizing all the time. We will see how our numbers will far, the news and health officers are telling people to keep their family groups small, with schools reopening.  Spring break 2020 was tooo long.  Some of the kids are doing online learning, I think I heard 75% back to school and 25% staying home.

Our daughter will be starting her first year of University, tomorrow from our home, and doing her study’s online, until further notice.  Schooling will cost the same, and was told that it costs more to change to online learning. Hopefully she will be able to head to school in January, but we will wait and see.

Our son is out at sea on the HMCS Regina, they are in Hawaii and taking part in RIMPAC 2020, they are isolated to the ship, not allowed off of the ship. So I’m sure this is difficult and isn’t that much fun.

With the pandemic hubby has taken up guitar playing, he’s enjoying learning a new hobby. Now he needs a band...😎. He has always loved music, people have even called him Shazam, (it’s a music app that can name that tune) He’s been working through the pandemic.

There are a lot of people that lost their jobs with this pandemic, I feel things are starting to start up now, but things are definitely different.



I have taken to genealogy, and still do my crocheting, and gardening will be coming to an end, My sweet peas are flowering but the sunflowers Iplanted aren’t even close to flowering, we will see if they bloom in time.  Our summer wasn’t the best, but with Covid, it helped to stay home.  I feel that bite in the air.  We will see what happens this winter, I have seen many things about this winter being brutal.  We will see, hopefully this is not true.


Well our house smells like banana bread, just make a banana cake, yummy!!! Have a great day, RM
