The Freezer.

We got our new deep-freezer yesterday( shown here, an upright one like the last one; it takes up less space) only this one is an ugly boring white; I liked the old black LG one we had before; it looked nicer and this one is a Frigidaire which I'm pretty sure is American which we're supposed to be boycotting and I hope we didn't have to pay tariffs on!  It also took the delivery guys an hour as they had to take the door off to get it thru and kept it open the entire time, letting all kinds of flies into the house and I also had to keep Beja outside in the backyard  longer than I normally would have as it was really hot because I didn't want him running out the door. They brought the new one in and removed the old one and the food all defrosted and went rotten in the old one as well and my hubby still stupidly took the chance and ate his chicken wings even though I warned him he might get food poisoning from it and he's in Toronto today for work tooo and then in Quebec until Sunday playing chess. Beja's so cute as well whenever anyone comes home he'll excitedly greet them at the door with his toy, jumping around,wanting to play. Today is also supposed to be really humid and a storm with possible hail!

I also had a dream I saw a Dachshund and it made me sad in the dream because it reminded me of Buddy but now I realize IRL that it probably actually WAS him in the dream, and yesterday I had baaaad stomach and abdomenal pain sooo bad too it felt like I was being kicked by a horse and the dog next door his name is either Arthur  or Archer; when you don't hear well many words sound sort of the same so you have to guess but I think I figured it out that it's Arthur, and the radio had this ad for Canada Day asking listeners to submit a short video showing their Canadian pride and for me that would be a really short video because I don't have any "Canadian pride!" HA!😂 Someone also finally won the stupid hockey,too; I don't know(or care!) who; I'm just glad that it's finally over!!

Today being 18 June is also the anniversary of the first time I went to the YMCA group in Ottawa in 1988 and it changed my life; I met my hubby and all my Ottawa friends there and it was also the first time and place I ever felt accepted and fit in and where I could flourish  and come out of my shell and the first event was horseback riding and even though it's out of character for me to go to an event I didn't know anyone I felt a "prompting"  to go(likely from the Holy Spirit) and I figured I at least like riding) and today is also Paul McCartney's 83rd birthday and he's a year younger than my mother was(she would have turned 84 next month), and deep in my heart I knew she was dying in the ICU with her digestive system shutting down, the mottling on her skin, requiring oxygen support, needing to be suctioned, being semi-conscious the whole time and never improving but I was still hoping  I was wrong and she could still recover because hope is what keeps you going.
