HOME SWEET HOME-edited in red

We arrived home a little after three and I have been busy ever since! I slept part of the way, ready my book part of the way and knitted part of the way. Hubby didn’t want me to drive.
First we unpacked the car. Then I went to do some shopping. I bought lamb chops for supper. I bought enough so that I would have for my son if he stopped by. He did and looked very upset. He will be without a job at the end of October. I don’t see him getting another job too fast as he is not aggressive.  I feel very sad for him but there is little I can do. We’ll also have salad and mashed potatoes with fried onions. Sounds yummy to me!!!!!!!
Toronto! So amazing to visit with family. Friday night we went out with my sister and her hubby. I showed them pictures of our condo. Everyone who saw the pictures was impressed. My sister seems fine even though she is skin and bones. She’s constantly saying that she is old and too tired to prepare meals, have guests etc.
Saturday morning hubby went to visit his brother. I met with my cousin, her son, his wife and her two granddaughters. They are adorable!!!!! In the afternoon I shopped with my cousin. We went to find presents for my new great nephew. I bought a snowsuit for the baby. I also bought a present for his big sister. I just wrote an email to my SIL to tell her that the toy was for my great niece. At night we went for supper with hubby’s brother and sister.
Sunday morning I went to Burger King alone for breakfast. Hubby went to his brother again. Then my daughter picked me up and we went to a quaint area in Markham. We spent some quality time together. She didn’t mention anything about her "boyfriend" and I didn’t ask. 
For supper we went with hubby’s sister. After supper her daughter and hubby came over. We had time for a long talk and I got to understand what is happening with my nieces. Four nieces and nephews all have learning disabilities!!!!!!!
Monday morning we went for breakfast with my SIL and her hubby. Then we went to visit their daughters and grandchildren. 
After that we went back to the motel. Hubby hung out with my daughter and then I spent time with my sister. We went for lunch and to the Eaton center but both of us bought nothing. At night I went out with my cousins, sister and daughter.

All in all it was a wonderful trip. Time to make supper. My son just walked in.

So sorry for your son! Our kids need some TLC from mom and dad from time to time. I hope he will get something again soon. Poor young man.

Sounds good except about son losing his job. Times are hard right now, jobs seem to be few and far between. My oldest grandson is still looking for work. Love,
