Good Morning ALL! No more sleeps as I leave later this morning for the airport with a stop in Calgary and then onto Regina, Saskatchewan. Seems like I have not said or written “SASKATCHEWAN” in a long time. My old home. I am over the moon excited to see as many family and friends that I can. My beautiful and really funny sister will be picking me up at the airport, I cannot wait to see her face. Miss my girl so much. Been a few years mainly because of COVID and the no travel ban. Anyway, I will see her by suppertime and meet her cat Rain. Cannot wait to see her. She will smell male cats as I was over looking over the boys this morning. I get to have a sleepover with my friend Val. Cannot wait to “maybe” cook alongside her in her magic kitchen where all the food is delectable and oh so yummy.
I slept in a bit this morning until 6:00 (set the alarm clock for 6:00 but then reset this morning). Just figured if I needed it now – better to be rested up ahead of time. Because I want to be energized and ready to “party” so to speak.
I took some photos yesterday morning of Humphrey & Bogart and as it was dark I turned on my outside light and have some cool photos to show you.
I have brought up the laundry from the basement as I washed some things last night. Jeanette, Eddie & Jack stopped by to wish me a bon voyage. I have been receiving texts wishing me a great trip, feeling very special at the moment. I also did the “on-line check-in” last night after work. It took a bit as I “upgraded” my seat for the flight from Calgary to Regina. Figured for $31.00 and change it was worth it. Closer to the front of the plane the better. I can be off near the first couple of people. Hopefully.
Flowers and plants all watered last night and I mowed the back lawn. Well not actually mowed more like cut with the grass trimmer. It is so thick and green at this time. Best it has been in a long time.
Thought crossed my mind that I wished I had a bigger cross body purse but my good old Black roots purse will do and it is the right size to pop under the seat.
Well I am sipping on some coffee trying to relax, I am starting to feel the adrenaline rush. The excitement is hitting me. Going to start looking at the suitcase again. Likely better to have a shower and decide for the final time what I am taking. Just texted my sister and I guess it is warmer in Regina than I thought so rethinking some of my clothes. Glad I asked about the weather. At the worse, can do laundry or buy something new. All good.
Okay, time to get this show further on the road.
Happy Friday Everyone!
Continuing to live this life with kindness, respect, compassion, patience, love, laughter, understanding, gratitude, focus, possibilities, coffee and forgiveness.
Always, Carol & My Forever Angel Alvin
