Catching up

It has been a long time since the last post.

Ms Katie and I have been busy. We spent the last weeks reconnecting with family and friends including several days in Winnipeg visiting family and friends. While it is all very good it is also very difficult.

Ms Katie has many friends in MN. She was able to see many of then at a luncheon - I have to say the lunch of senior women was loud, loud and more loud!! There was lots of conversation and laughter between women who don't get to see each other very often! It is so good to hear it all!! It is difficult because there are those who were missing because of illness and others who are already gone.

I'm reconnecting too...
Linda from gradeschool,
Dawn from junior high,
Colleen, Beth, Judy, Shelly from high school. We have shared stories from the past years - many, many of the good ones and the ones that break hearts. We have also shared the dreams and schemes for the future!!

The time in Winnipeg included meeting the next generation of family members!! More second and third cousins! All wonderfully cute and rambunctious!! And it included hospital time with family who are ill. Prayers for a cousin who faces a long and difficult recovery.

Time keeps passing...
...and more stories are being written.
