According to Vancouverite, there has been a surge in the deaths due to swine flu in Ontario. Stay well, all my Ontario kith and kin.
The weather is horrid. The wind was rattling the plastic siding last night; it sounded like a large and uncomfortable animal scrabbling around in the wall right next to my ear.
Katie is supposed to be back from her business trip today. Two weeks ago she wasn’t working and now she’s travelling on business. Bizarre. I hope for a full report soon.
Yesterday I did a lot of laundry and shifted things around and took up the curtain in the entertainment room and played with Miss Margot (she really likes the thunder tube). Jeff brought the cat furniture upstairs earlier this week and the cats are very happy to have their perch back in the window. Now we have to figure out how to re-cover it.
The crossover CSI-NY-Miami-Vegas episode we watched was so gruesome, and so disturbing, that I’m not surprised folks we know are reporting that it’s giving them trouble sleeping. The episode was about human trafficking. There are more slaves alive today than ever in human history. It’s a horrible thing to think about; worse is knowing that there are very likely sex slaves walking distance from my house. Here’s a link to information about human trafficking in BC.
I have Keith/Jeff’s cold. I thought it was going away but it’s hanging about. Given that I have a dinner to go to tomorrow (the place the church is now located is holding a fundraiser to pay for the roof, and we kinda sorta have to show our flag (at $50 a pop, which I will get refunded)) I am really hoping it just goes away.
