I truly believed Saskatchewan was going to win tonight and to be so close and then throw it away (literally) was very disappointing. The half time show was awesome. Loved the performance by Bachman Turner Overdrive. Matt and mom had travelled to Calgary to watch but John and I just watched here at home. John had just gotten back from spending his birthday in London, England watching a rugby match in Twickenham stadium, the oldest rugby stadium in the world. A orthopedic surgeon from Owen Sound had bought him a ticket and they had a great time. Thanks for all who sent birthday wishes.
Yesterday was a heavy shopping day for Matt, mom , myself and Shaunie. Jonmarie was at a birthday party sleepover and so we decided to shop. The weather has finally warmed up and was even above 0 on Friday. You could even smell the wet cement, which we usually don't smell until spring. Matt bought himself a new pair of glasses. The ones he has are really bothering him and they smudge so easy, plus they don't fit him very well.
We had a good giggle while we were in Sears. Shaunie had a balloon from Sears Days and it was on a stick. We had been watching this young teenager and he was with his friends. He was going on all the treadmills, pushing all kinds of buttons and trying them out. You could tell he was not sure if he was going to get in trouble or not because he kept looking around like he was guilty of something. Anyway, Shaunie and her balloon were in the push cart when just as we got behing this fellow, the balloon popped. And I mean it was LOUD! The poor guy almost fell off the treadmill and mom started to laugh and asked him "Did you think you had broke the treadmill?" He started to laugh and said "I really thought it had exploded!" The look on his face was priceless. we laughed all the way to the vehicle. Poor Shaunie just cried because she had been so scared when the balloon had popped.
Matt was able to have another chiropractor treatment. His hip had been bothering him for awhile as well as his left shoulder so they were able to transfer him onto the bed and the chiropractor worked on it. It must have helped because Matt felt so much relief. We took him for a bath in Innisfail on Saturday before shopping and he was moving easier with less pain.
The van is starting easier now however they are still going to take it in for a new battery. He relies on it so much it needs to be in tip top working condition. You don't know when the next cold spell will be.
