So, I am putting out some wine & cheese for everyone, coz, we haven't had any for a while.

There are some lovely grapes, just as sweet or tart as you like them.
A bit of fig chutney like stuff.
Some crackers.

Enjoy
 
Oh boo Mendalla - hope you are soon feeling better - and if not definitely go back & get that checked. Crummy not feeling well, worse when you're home alone I think. So cozy up here ... friendly snacks & wine - thank you pinga! - maybe a few fireworks later to celebrate this special weekend!
 
I made waffles for supper. Here are some extra, and maple syrup, and summerland sweets fruit syrups and some Okanagan cherries (frozen but I thawed them)

Oh, dear, I had forgotten - fireworks season starts up again. Lucy hates fireworks. She'll sleep outside in her dog house voluntarily through a major thunderstorm; one single firecracker let off around the block by a teenager has her upset for hours...

Ah yes, Mendalla; lumps and bumps do plague us, don't they? You need a DCM for both the cyst and the shoulder pain, in my opinion and experience...I have a cyst on the back of my neck, which can't be removed because it's all tied up in my neck ligaments/muscles, etc. And it does flare up occasionally. A visit to Hong Wei sets it right for months/years at a time.
 
My wife would find that amusing. She would also be oddly reluctant. Her Dad was an engineer and pretty much raised them with a Western modernist mindset.

I am better today. Shoulder is fine, slept better. Weather is iffy (not supposed to rain but it's been cloudy and cool so hasn't dried out from yesterday) and tomorrow looks fine so I should still be able to get some outdoor stuff done.
 
Having a sad weekend. My Grandma had hip surgery on Tuesday, was doing great. Had a big stroke overnight on Thursday and died less than 24 hours later.
So not expected at all.
I'm also realizing this is likely the start of the beginning. The last time I saw one Great Aunt I did realize I might not get to see her again, she's been living with cancer for quite some time and it's not expected to go into remission. All of the relatives of that generation that I know are still fairly independent though. My Grandma and Grandpa moved into a senior's residence a year after I saw them last, but it was independent living still. I'm hoping my Grandpa will get through this ok to stay there for quite a while. Everyone else is in their own home, but clearly that's not going to last forever.
 
Sorry to hear of the loss of your Grandma. I know how dearly I love mine and dread the day that I don't have her to call anymore.
And prayers for your Grandpa as he tries to find his new normal.
 
Chemgal, so sorry to hear of the sudden death of your Grandma. and yes it will be the start of her cohorts passing on as well.
May planning the next steps be as peaceful as possible for you and your extended family.
 
Sending hugs to you at this sad time ChemGal. Grandmas can often be such special people in the lives of their families. Hoping you might be living close enough to be able to visit your parents & grandpa to share memories and tributes.

I'll be making the trip out for the funeral and I'll go for a few days at least. Haven't made travel plans yet.
