Second Half of the NEW YEAR

Good Morning Everyone!

What a gorgeous morning here in Edmonton.

The sky is clear after an evening of rain.

The grass is even more green (did not think was possible).

The flowers and trees and plants had a nice drink of water direct from Mother Nature.

Alvin is sitting facing the doorway as he sometimes does.

Not sure if that is his getting ready to run pose or what exactly he is thinking.

What a guy.

 

Yesterday my daughter took a shopping trip to The COSTCO, yup an adventure, always.

She picked up a few items that I figured I needed ( actually I did ).

But somehow I always manage to miss asking for something and this time it was dishwashing tablets.

Lucky for me that I only run the dishwasher once or twice a week so I am good for two or three more weeks.

Will pick them up next time.

The most exciting item that I got other than pea pods and oranges was a new PILLOW for sleeping.

I was thrilled when it came time for bed to try it out.

So the pillow obviously from Costco.

It is called “novaform” by Innocor Comfort.

First time that I have had a memory foam pillow.

I will say that I had the best sleep in likely years or perhaps ever.

The memory foam supported my head and neck perfectly.

I am so happy that I had this last minute idea and asked my daughter to grab me a pillow.

She picked out just the most perfect one for me.

I guess next time will get one for Alvin for those times where actually lays on the pillow.

Guess what there is even a FIVE YEAR Warranty on the pillow.

I have never heard of that before and that makes me happy.

When you have a good sleep – somehow you feel as though you can achieve anything.

Also very thankful today is Friday after my first week back to work.

I can hear the kitten Bogart meowing outside next door likely playing with his big brother Humphrey.

 

Well time to get this show on the road.

A mug of freshly brewed coffee.

Just had a refreshing shower, even dressed up and put on makeup.

I am expecting GREAT things today.

Perhaps an unexpected visitor?

Who knows but today is going to be spectacular, fantastic and the beginning of something more than I could have ever dreamed.

That is going to be today, Friday, August 21, 2020.

 

Have an awesome day.

Filled with kindness and respect for all.

Light up the world with your good energy.

Be safe.

 

I/We shall remain,

As Always, Carol & Mr. Alvin

 

P.S. I wrote the dedication to my first book last night and have a title and the cover.  On my way.

 

Living … One day at a time.

Hello,

Up late this morning …. just had to sleep in……

Bright and sunny this morning quite the change from last night.

To explain.

Yesterday Alvin and Humphrey the Cat spent the entire day together.

From the time I left for work until I arrived home and then until about 9 p.m.

The boys did great.

These photos where taken about 8:00 p.m. – I guess they must have played hard.

As they were pooped.

I also spent some time with Luna who was visiting at Humphrey’s home, the reason for him to be with us.

Luna is a beautiful HUGE dog with so much energy.

Do you think that I can remember her breed?  No, not now.

Adding here …. I believe she is a LAB.

OH my goodness …..

I let her out to pee, fed her supper and played with her on three different occasions throughout the evening.

We had fun.

I did have a walk with Alvin after supper.

We went to see our friends as we will be watering their flowers while they are away.

Alvin loves to roll in the grass at their house.

Our friend joined us for a walk.

By this time, I will admit that I was kind of pooped as there had been some broken night’s sleep along the way.

Last night the skies were alive.

The clouds were just a rolling.

We did have a couple of tornado watches throughout last evening.

The last three photos were from a few minutes ago.

Glad to see bright sunshine.

It feels like a shorts day and that is what I am wearing.

At least for now.

I moved my flower pots into the sunshine from the safety of the house.

 

Tomorrow Master Teddy joins us for the day.

Somehow I seem to be surrounded more with four-legged babies than humans.

At least at home that is.

I do not mind.

They make me laugh and feed my soul.

Provide excellent company.

 

Well time to go.

I can smell the aroma of my freshly perked coffee.

Laundry is calling my name.

Saturday after all …..

Work to do.

I do love putzing around at home.

The windows are all open.

The cool breeze lapping onto my face.

What a life.

 

I am this truly blessed almost 62 year old woman just living her life … one day at a time.

Have an awesome Saturday.

Always be kind and respectful.

We just have to be.

To all living creature big and small.

 

Always, Carol & Alvin
