John,
My dad made it home last night from Kamloops and this time he brought back with him an
infrared temperature meter that he got when he was up there. He used it on his trip to read the
temperature of power cables and it’s got a red laser pointer which he points at what he wants to
read the temperature of, but you won’t get to see this one because my dad’s taking it to work
with him on Monday and he’ll keep it at work.
My mom saw a horrible story at the top of today’s Noon News, the one about the body that got
dragged underneath a transit bus all the way through the tunnel. A car was driving in dark and
rainy conditions sometime last night near that area when all of a sudden the driver of the car
thought he hit something, so he pulled over when he got a little ways ahead and then he walked
back to find a jacket and a shoe. They must’ve come from the same body which the bus drove over
once the car hit it. They said that the bus driver was really shook up and my mom thinks he’ll
probably be off work for a while.
My dad phoned our neighbour, Reg, this morning. He’s the one who I previously told you is the
Captain for our Block Watch team. Anyway, he said that his wife, Lydia who has osteoporosis, had
a fall one day while he was out and she couldn’t get up until he got home to help her. My dad
went over and saw them after he got off the phone with Reg, and when he was over there Reg told
him that he’s seen Izzy killing birds in his yard. One day he saw her take a bird right out of
their birdbath and then he saw her actually kill it. And could you believe that Izzy was outside
today for a good amount of time in the weather that we’ve been having?
My grandpa was here this morning and when he was sitting with my dad at the kitchen table
they both put their hand down to Chloe, but my dad felt rejected because Chloe went to my
grandpa. And it’s not too often that Chloe will go to anybody else besides my mom, my dad, or
myself. She usually hides when company’s here.
And I’ve still been sleeping in til 1 or 2PM on the days when I don’t have anything to get up
for, I slept in that late today too but I think this should hopefully be the right dosage for
me. I haven’t been feeling tired since the decrease at the beginning of last week, just lazy.
I’ve been feeling like I have energy but just don’t have any motivation to want to do
anything.
I hope you write me.
-Neil
