I let Gene sleep in until his Pere (what they call their Granddad) arrived with the tools we needed for the day. While he was outside being sure how everything worked I heard ‘Are you okay??’ and went rushing out to see what had happened. Bill (Pere, aka my first husband) had tripped over a tree pruner and fallen on his left shoulder, banging his arm and leg as he went down. He seemed fine and went on his way. Later in the day we learned he had to go to Emergency and may have a torn rotator cuff. He is in a swanky sling to immobilize his shoulder and will have an MRI next week. Poor guy!
Gene and I worked our tushes off to level a spot for the pool. This involved a small rototiller, rakes, shovels and a hand tamper. We did take a break to help Jake return his rental car and go to Rick’s Meats. Gene bought two rib eyes for $40 as a special father’s day treat for his dad.
We then returned to finish off and start filling the pool. I went to join Rae-Anne on a test drive of a 2018 Dodge Pacifica she is very interested in. It is well suited to all her needs and I hope she is able to get it. Followed that with helping Shea unload his moving trailer into storage. He and his Dad had gone to move him back from Lethbridge where he earned his degree. It was during dinner that Diane reminded me it was the first day of Summer! That seems appropriate as the pool finally is being set up properly. Bring on the sun!! Had a nice evening playing games and listening to vintage music from Sean’s vinyl collection. I am pretty sure my back will not want me to get out of bed in the morning!!
