The dogs were a nuisance during the night again so I cancelled the walk again.
I logged onto my Fine Art America account to find that the group "Greatest Of All Time" named me, yes me, "Artist Of The Week"! I was deeply honoured by the distinction.
At 10am we went out with Diego looking at 3 houses for sale but only got to see the interior of the two that were not suitable just at a glance, too small, no safe area for the dogs, and too close to pastures with stinky cows. The first one, the one I really would like to see, is at the opposite end of town, on the edge, a large 2 story with electric gate and garage, with a large yard that probably will need some fencing, but it is large, and only 2 years old. We may get to see it Saturday if it is not sold already. I gave Diego a list of what we need, which is a tall order. Honestly, I would fight to keep our present house if I wasn't worried about the patio roof collapsing some day.
I spent a lot of the afternoon working on Ancestry again, double-checking that I have extended the branches to get to Henri and Robert Bourassa, the Quebec politicians. They were already there, and I was surprised on how little information is available for Premier Robert's wife, Andree Simard, from a family of shipbuilders...
I made salad and took it over with Turi to Nativa and Victor. I ate a bowl, as did Victor, and a bowl was saved for Nativa for when she returns from selling lottery tickets, and a bowl for tomorrow for Victor. My salad is a hit everywhere.
I bought 2 lottery tickets from Nativa and then she got excited and changed one of them for ticket 430, part of my car's licence... How she remembers that, I have no idea. She also brought out her mother's picture, pointing out how much Cristina resembles her...
I hope you enjoy the pictures. That was the day’s excitement.
