Not a lot going on right

now. Anne is about to head out to No Frills Saturday night), get some milk, and a Lotto Max (extra) for me and some cash back including 5 toonies so I can go to the "coffee club" during the week. $2 gets a coffee and a donut/muffin, and mingle with the other seniors. As a resident here, one needs to be carefull what one says because there is a lot of gossip going around. Us old people you know😎Not me. I don't participate in gosip. I don't really want to make friends around here because as soon as you meet and get to know somebody, they die off. Nature of the beast as it were. We had a yard sale but I got caught up in other things.

On this date in 1931, farmers in the American Midwest saw their crops destroyed by a massive swarm of grasshoppers. The insect collective was so big that it allegedly blocked out the sun and devoured entire fields of crops. In a related incident, in Saint Albert has a grasshopper infestation. You can read about it here.

Speaking about the Lotto Max ticket, when at Capital Place, we never won anything more then $10 bucks at a time oor a free ticket to play again.. Now that we're in a seniors residents, I doubt that will change. Not that I'd make announcement about it though. Anyway, that's all for now.
