Day 106. Friday, April 17

A busy day, which included picking up our F150 from the shop where it had some TLC given to it.....to the tune of just over $1000.


Our day also included looking after Seth while his dad took his mom to the doctor.

For some reason, Seth wanted to play with my feet...even to the point of laying his head down on my foot.

Day 19....January 22, Thursday

I hung around the hotel room until the dealership called that the truck was ready. They picked me up and I paid for their services after hearing how "lucky" we were.....the gear on the back of the water pump had fallen off, causing the water pump to not pump water (go figure). The miraculous part of this is that it fell onto the top of the engine and in spite of being driven for 3 days AFTER it fell off, and also 4 times for diagnostics, the gear did NOT fall into the engine!!!!

Jim was "home" by 6 and spent the evening transfering his things from my truck to his.

Day 18....Wednesday, January 21

I picked up Jim's refurbished gas monitor in Red Deer today, then at about supper time, I met Andrew at Vinj and Kath's.....I left my car with Vinj so he could get to work, etc for the next week or so while his car was being fixed.

Andrew and Keltie drove me out to Drayton Valley to get my truck - well, I stayed with Jim overnight and helped him get all packed up to move to Rocky the next morning.

We took A & K out for supper when we arrived in DV.....the food and service was not so good, but it was nice to be able to spend some time together as two couples.

Day 17....Tuesday January 20

I babysat Seth today. Vinjelu and Kathryn had a meeting in Calgary with a business man who wants to set up microloans through YWAM Zambia so they were gone pretty much all day.



Seth was very happy....we had lots of play time which I enjoyed very much.



Andrew was off work today due to a sore back - a result of shoveling 13,000 lbs of cement all day the day before. He visited with Seth and I for a couple hours. That was a treat.



While Seth slept, I tidied and cleaned the house for Kathryn.



Dan got off work early and went snowmobiling with Holly for the afternoon. Unfortunately, they ran out of gas about 1.5 miles from the house and then there was no fuel to take back to the sled. They got back to Kath and Vinj's on time for 'small group' and since Vinj and Kath were due back shortly, I left Seth to Daniel's care and went on home.



Unfortunately, Vinj's car broke down and they did not get home until quite a bit later in the evening. Good thing Daniel is competent with Seth.
