Good Morning and Welcome to Thursday the 30th day of August, 2018.
Almost another August onto the books.
Our temperatures have dropped below seasonal averages to anywhere between 14-18 degrees.
Still not bad that is for sure.
It has been raining here off and on for the past couple of days.
I pray that it reaches the FIRES and puts them OUT.
Last night my daughter picked me up from work.
We stopped at Safeway and picked up a few items.
One of the things that I wanted to pick up there as I only recently found out that they sold was ADULT BUS TICKETS.
So instead of going to Save-On and Shoppers as my daughter had to stop at Safeway …. I figured one stop shopping.
When came time to pick up the bus tickets …. alas they were sold out.
We ended up going to Shoppers ….. always have to have a PLAN B.
I laughed because what else can you do.
I do enough “crying” at work … not really.
After our shopping we came home and threw together a little supper for the two of us.
I made some corn on the cob in the microwave.
A trick that I learned from my brilliant sister earlier this month when she was visiting us.
We also had some Chicken Curry Soup …. from the deli at Safeway.
Crackers and cheese.
YUP, I even bought “saltines” for the occasion.
Simple but yummy.
Sometimes that is the best, right.
We had a great visit and supper.
The plan was to go for a walk after supper with Master Teddy and his Aunt J but alas it was raining.
So no walk for us.
I hope that tonight it is not raining as a walk is a must.
Perhaps if only a light rain ….. we will go.
Other quick story.
Yesterday in the afternoon at work.
One of the Managers came to my desk.
I was about to call a client and she motioned for me to hang up.
So I did.
She said come on, let’s find a empty space and play JENGA.
What … JENGA.
YAY, I love JENGA.
We had played during some down time at work on day and it was so much fun.
So we played a couple of games of JENGA.
When the blocks came down the first time, we both yelled/screamed.
Brought a staff person running.
After that …. we held it.
I am so grateful to her for giving me a much deserved break from the craziness that is my job.
We are so busy …. that made me take a break …. which most days I do not in the afternoon.
The second game I WON as well, and we were more quiet.
YAY, JENGA, I love that game.
I would like that game.
Well almost time to go back downstairs and finish getting ready for work.
It does not appear to be raining at the moment.
I hope that you all have a great Thursday.
I hope that if you are farming …. you are finish the harvest or at least that it is dry so that you can finish.
Happy Thursday.
One more day before the long weekend.
Special Hello to: YOU, thank you.
Always, Carol & Alvin
