Hmm, been a few weeks since my last update. Let's see, been fundraising - selling Arthritis Society bracelets, popcorn, chocolate almonds (sold 13 boxes to the staff at Mr. Ho's Chinese restaurant!).

Last weekend I was in Nanaimo for my Dad's birthday dinner on Friday. Curtis and Ray were also over. Yoda, my parents' Rottie pup was only 8 1/2 weeks old, so cute and fluffy with soft puppy fur :) My Mom and I were at Woodgrove Mall on Saturday at a table where we were selling blue bracelets (which say Arthritis Society Hope for the Long Run and has the Arthritis blue bird on it), stickers by donation and donations. Since my Mom was there the whole day and didn't mind sitting at the table I got to stretch a lot walking around the mall shopping! Thanks MOM!!!

My Dad was at a golf tournament Saturday. My mom and I went to pick up Yoda at Lisa's house after the mall as she was dog-sitting during the day. It was so cute seeing Dark Vader and Luke - Yoda's remaining siblings. They're so adorable! Can't believe Lisa copied Dad and named her pups after Star Wars too!

Then my Mom and I had dinner at the casino and then stayed there for a bit playing the slots.

On Sunday, my Dad picked up Cassie, Yoda's mom. Mom, Dad, Cassie, Yoda and I went to Swy-A-Lana Lagoon for the SPCA Pause for a Cause walk. No free give-aways like in Vancouver and not very many booths but still lots of dogs. Good thing Cassie was there as Yoda would follow her and it wasn't difficult walking him. Yoda got a lot of attention as he looked like a little fluffy, stubby bear cub which is what a lot of people said as they saw us. Then when they saw Cassie was his mom got even more attention.

Was quite an interesting weekend. Was hoping to play badminton Sunday night but was too tired from lack of sleep (i.e. no chance to crash yet on the weekend) and had a lot of back pain from sitting at the mall and the ferry rides. So went to bed at 9pm!!!
