I am feeling very grateful today. I have a new grandson. Gunnar James Battersby came into the world last night. 8 pounds 9 ounces. Perfect timing: Morgan, who has been working in Moose Jaw for the last few months just got home from his shift, had a nap, woke up in time to take Mary to the hospital, and now he has 7 days off to spend time with his little family. Just happens to be Haley and Dustin's anniversary. I am incredibly thankful that both my girls are in loving marriages. Another reason to be thankful is my two grandchildren. My joy and delight last night was to grandparent Luvisa while Morgan and Mary were at the hospital. It's 7:24am and she is still sleeping. Another thing to be thankful for. Luvisa continues to be a blessing to me and anyone who meets the little red head. She has a pretty good handle on the English language and continues to amaze me with her insight and verve.
In other news, I have been to the lake a couple times. Ball season started yesterday. My weight training must be paying off. I had a homer, a double, and a single. I've had the kayak out a few times and have golfed a bit. There has also been time for biking on my bike (freedom machine ) and my acoustic bike (the one that actually has exercise potential).
Yes, I am grateful for so many things. Haley and Mary continue to support one another in many areas of their lives. Haley was with Mary through labor and delivery. Such an honour! I am grateful too for the signs that there are signs that the covid thing is winding down though I will concede I have not been affected by covid as acutely as some poor souls. I am healthy and happy and surrounded by a lot of Love. I am blessed.
