Sorry no updates!

I was about 3 weeks behind in my album and I just got caught up yesterday so I really don't have time to post all my photos from the 3 weeks. Most of them are pretty ordinary anyway! I do have some nice ones from my daughter's graduation on May 9, so the next time I post I''ll include a few of those.

Does anyone read this?

If so could you let me know. I want to know if it's worth taking the time to post these every week.

My pages



Here's a couple of pictures to show how my pages look in my album (from the last two weeks).

This week







I don't think these will be in the right order but I am tired of playing with them so you can figure it out!


Monday March 23 - Mo, the cat, always seems to be looking for a
 chance to get outside.  We have to watch out for him, especially as the
 weather improves.

Tuesday March 24 - The snow came back! We had quite a bit of snow and wind today.  Nicky enjoyed it!



Wednesday March 25 - A morning
 ritual whenever I have time: reading
 the local paper and drinking coffee out of my favourite mug from the Toronto Maple Leafs which I like because it is a big mug.
Thursday March 26 - Tonight at choir practice I was presented with
 this fine cake and a card for my upcoming birthday.  One of the choir members made the cake and sent it along even though she was to sick with a cold to come to practice. She's so sweet! And the cake was delicious!


Friday March 27 - I spent lots of time today getting ready for the next day's crop. Here's some of the things I had to take over to the church.
Saturday March 28 - I had 18 women come to the crop today and all seemed to have a good time.
Sunday March 29 - This Sunday the women of the choir, with a few additions, sang the prelude, offertory and postlude. One of the men in the choir took this pictures while we were practicing before church.  There was a smudge on my lens which I didn't
 notice as I wasn't taking the pictures.

Rest of last week

Tuesday March 17 - This picture is actually from last night and is the interior of the Roman Catholic Cathedral where I went to hear a wonderful concert of organ and voice. They had a great turnout.
Wednesday March 18- Moncton City Hall. The flags in front are those of the various countries which will be participating in the World Men's Curling Championship here in April.
Thursday March 19 - my KOTM for Project 365 finally came! I have been using my other album so far so I will keep this one for next year. 
Friday March 20 - Our Junior Hockey Team is starting the playoffs so here they are warming up for their first game against the PEI Rocket. Our team (the Wildcats) won 7-1.
Saturday March 21 - Second game of the playoffs. Here they are facing the flags as "O Canada" is sung before the game.  We have a US flag also as we have one team in the league from Maine. As you can see the guys have all died their hair blond for the playoffs. Wildcats won 5-0.
Sunday March 22 - The men of our church choir sang today and the women had a "day off". Next week the women sing.  Here they are singing the prelude before the service.

More in March







Friday March 13 - Boston Pizza, a restaurant we often go to.  Nothing to do with Boston, really.  The man who started this chain is from Alberta and was a Boston Bruins fan.
Saturday March 14 - Marcel with his cousin Dave and Dave's wife Diane.  We had dinner at their place.
Sunday March 15 - Framed picture and jersey of Luc Bourdon, who used to play with our local junior hockey team, went to the Vancouver Canucks of the NHL, and was killed in a motorcycle accident last May.  There was a tribute to Luc before the game on Sunday.
Monday March 16 - Maurice LeBlanc gives a presentation to the Rotary Club/Downtown Moncton Inc. luncheon about the Community Peace Center being established at our church building.

These pictures aren't in order but I think you can figure them out

A few more days





Monday March 9 Tucker is sick again and has a new vet appointment on Wednesday.
Tuesday March 10 Here our junior hockey team, the Moncton Wildcats, accept the "Rivalry Cup" for having a higher % of seats filled at the arena than another NB team, the Saint John Sea Dogs.
Wed. March 11 Some asparagus with live oil and kosher salt waiting to be baked.  I like doing it that way.
Thurs. March 12 Nicky (dog) and Mo (cat) - a really odd way to sleep in a dog bed! 
(By the way Tucker is better since he went back on special food and he vet gave him a new prescription for prednisone.)
