GO CRAZY FOR BUKOWSKI

What truly horrible lives they must live.”

FLASHBACK 2010 – part two

Here’s another slice of my 2010 Highlight Moments, but without the superfluous links and elaborate explanations which were so painfully present in part one — live and learn!

MOM WITH KIDS IN PARK MAMAN AVEC ENFANTS AU PARC

APRIL

Our housing co-op gets its ventilation ducts cleaned, and my son Vincent turns thirty-one (story of his birth).

MAY

While my son Sébastien and his wife are in Jamaica, I spend ten days at their house with Justin, their youngest son, and Molly, their Golden Retriever.

HAVE A NICE DAY aquarelle by Philip Henry

This is the gift they bought for me — “HAVE A NICE DAY”

JAMAICAN ARTIST PHILIP HENRY

And here is the artist, Philip Henry.

My daughter-in-law said that this drawing reminded her of the ones that I draw. Coooooooool.

Back home, I give my balcony its usual spring makeover.

JUNE

My mammography turns out fine…
my grandson Justin turns four…

APPLE STORE MONTREAL

and I buy my MacBook Pro…
ho ho ho!

JULY

My oldest grandson turns eight; I get a new Mac because the other one was a lemon (O the drama and the multiple visits to the Apple Store!); and my brother sends me postcards from Rouen, in France, where our ancestor René de LaVoye was born (they will be added to my POSTCARDS FROM BOBBY BABY collection real soon).

Up untill then — minus the Mac episode — the year had been pretty darn smooth.
To be continued!

In Cognito, we’ll have nothing to hide.”
