This blog originally started as a spin-off of a regular email that I would send out entitled "Word of the Daye", I decided that I wanted to create a blog, partly because I wanted to write more, and I thought this would encourage me to do that. This has not really happened, as the blog has been mainly links to news items etc. with the occasional item of personal note. Since I would like to change this I am attempting to write more in my own words, beginning now.
This week has been very quiet. I have been sick with a head and chest cold and finally today I am starting to feel a little better.
Last night David and I went to St. Barnabas United Church on the Danforth to hear Author Bill Bryson read from his new book, 'The Life and Times of the Thunderbolt Kid, a memoir' followed by a question and answer session. Mr. Bryson was quite entertaining and told a few stories from some of his books. I haven't read any of them, although I will be reading 'A Short History of Nearly Everything', which David brought with us and had the author sign.

This picture is a plaque that was on the wall. I was bored waiting for David to get his book signed so I took the picture here. Was the dead woman, Edith was married to her brother?
