Kind of Funny

Husband M and I celebrate our 28th wedding anniversary today. It is also the Canadian Thanksgiving long weekend.

I took my mom for some lab tests recently. She has some memory loss. The X-ray guy was asking her 'Are you Elfreda?' and mom wasn't answering. I came into the room and she says to me quite seriously 'who is Elfreda?'  I said to him 'That's her middle name, she is Doreen!  Problem solved.  It was kind of funny.

It was raining one early morning and I took these shots of wet leaves on the pavement for you:
