Update

Hi Everyone - I don't know if this has been put on twice but read the first one.  I guess I pushed the wrong button. I am progressing very slowly and from all I have read on RA it is a long haul.  My right eye seems to be correcting itself but my feet are still numb and tingly.  As most of you know nothing has ever gotten me down, so not happy being grounded for the winter.

I am not sitting still have put my house up forsale too big to keep up so have been dealing with construction to get it in shape.  Everyone stages their places now and I have to say the house looks so good, if it doesn't sell it won't bother me too much.  Will buy a small house in Barrie with not much upkeep and I'll be nearer to things.

I cannot get internet at my house, have tried three companies all said sure no problem.  Well they lied I am on the wrong side of the street, go figure. Isolated cottages can get it and I am a lot closer to Toronto. I had an internet satellite dish for a few years, but it was way too expensive and I find out that the equipment is worth nothing now.

Well no grass grows under my feet, I entered a contest to go to a concert at a place called "The Ranch" which is a bar in downtown Barrie.  Big Sugar and the Trews are a Canadian rock group and were playing.  I love Big Sugar, but figured that I would never win, well I did.  MMMM who would go with me?  Well my daughter Jessica said she would go, but she isn't into rock, would you believe she loves country never thought my kids would like that music.  She is also a person that needs lots of sleep and she had to go to work the next day.  What a great daughter to do that for me.  We waited in line for a long time and it started to rain so sat in the car and waited, but the line didn't get any shorter. They have a lot of bouncers there and the police patrol the area all the time. It was a great place to people watch.

 We found out that we could have gone in the short line and not have to wait.  The entertainment never starts till late first group the Trews started at 9:30, now that is almost my bed time. I remember when everything started at 8 and was over by 11. Oh those were the days.  We both took our ear plugs, learned a long time ago that the kids like things loud and the music was up full blast.  Boy when they are in their 40's they will all be deaf.  There were very few seats so every one was standing, where do these young adults get the money to spend on all the drinks.  They sure were flowing.  My group came on at 11 and when I looked at Jessica she was almost asleep on her feet so after a couple of songs we left. At least I can say I saw them in person. I think I will pass on anything else that comes up.

Will catch up on my travels out west, hopefully in the next couple of weeks.  I want to put my pictures on Flickr along with my other travels, but all depends on the day.
