Good Morning and Welcome to Saturday the 15th day of August, 2015.
It is overcast here in Edmonton and the deck remains wet from the rain, overnight.
We could use some moisture so it is all good.
At least here in the city.
Farmers well that will be another story.
I am so excited to be back and as always it was something so simple.
Doesn’t it just figure.
Something I could have done myself …. something I did do myself.
When plugging the computer and equipment back in I plugged it into the wrong “jack.”
Can you imagine?
The young man “Abdul” was very sweet and did not make me feel “stupid.”
I did write a few lines on FB yesterday just after I was “live” again after one week.
The troubleshooters for our cable/communications company are in a country on the other side of the world from us.
They do not know the setups (this was from the tech that came to my house).
These people just read from a script so not their fault.
He said they do not usually mention the “jack” in the script ….
If they had – I would have tried putting it in the other jack.
It is very sad that it is always about the money.
Companies having to make more and more money.
Anyway I am very grateful to have television once again and the internet.
So on with life.
I found during the week …. the house to be quiet.
So we listened to more music.
Spent more time outside.
Watched movies on DVD.
Snuggled more.
I think it was a good thing at the end of the day.
I did miss writing my blog, watching my recorded shows and going on FB.
But it was a good thing all in all.
Today I am hosting my second “Steeped Tea” party and am so excited to announce that I am now a Consultant for Steeped Tea.
I love the product and look forward to learning more as time goes on.
Well I have a bunch of things to do before my guests start arriving and thank goodness my “leader” will be leading the party and I will be watching and learning.
I had a wonderful Friday …. my daughter and grand-pups spent the day and slept over.
She helped me put together the second desk for my office and it looks great.
I will post some photos once I get the room in order (not today).
We walked with the pups in the rain.
I won a big prize at our company barbecue on Wednesday.
It was all about popcorn (hot air popcorn maker, ceramic popcorn container, popcorn to pop and Chicago mix popcorn, liquorice, M&Ms and two movies).
The popcorn tasted so yummy as we watched a movie.
Well I had better get this show on the road.
So good to be back.
I hope that you are all well and enjoying your Saturday.
Take Care.
Special Hello to: all of my friends and family who sent me wonderful Birthday wishes … it was a wonderful day.
Always, Carol and Alvin
