Dear Emmaline,

I certainly enjoyed our chat last week. I’m so impressed with all your new computer skills. Yes, one of these days I suppose I should get a computer, but this email thing sounds complicated. I rather like communicating with cards and pretty stationery. But you’re right. Email would be so much faster. I’ll think about it. Maybe I can get Gerald to buy me a computer for Christmas. We could share. Dylan’s been trying to convince him for ages to start using a computer for the business. It’s hard to break old habits, though. Gerald still keeps his records the old-fashioned way. Anyway, we’ll see.

Now, as for news, Colin is off to visit Mia at school this weekend, and all of us old people are going to Zelda’s restaurant for a Halloween party. Even Dylan is going, although he’s annoyed about having to wear a costume. Bethie wants to make him a Zorro cape and mask. I think he’d be a very dashing Zorro! She’s turning Gerald and me into apples. How I’m going to be able to sit down in an apple costume, I have no idea, but Bethie assures me she’ll make it work.

Next week is my last pie-baking class. We’ll be baking pumpkin pies to get everyone in the mood for Thanksgiving. At my age I shouldn’t be in a hurry to get from one holiday to the next—time is flying by fast enough as it is!—but I am looking forward to Thanksgiving when our Mia will be back and we’ll all be together. Of course, I’m happy to see the young ones leave the nest and spread their wings, but it’s always good when they come home for a visit.

Do let me know how Joey’s appointment with the cardiologist goes.

Love,

Justine
