Good Morning and Welcome to Wednesday the 19th day of December, 2018.
Well today is a BIG day.
Our office has slowly been moving into a new temporary location as our current office building is going to be renovated.
Today I am going to have to move my spider plant.
Actually not mine but someone it ended up that way.
I grabbed a blue recycling bag to cover it with and hope it will survive the walk.
It is not far and it is not cold.
The bag should offer enough protection.
So…..
Today is our turn to move.
Actually they will move us later today.
We have been moving in stages.
I am excited to move as it is a nice change.
New surroundings.
We are closer to the bus – for those times that I have to catch public transportation.
I am right beside a window – the first time in a long while.
Newer building.
Different setup.
A good change.
Our files are being packed so today is the day for us to pack the remainder of our work stations or desks.
YAY, excited for the move.
A new office when I/We go to work in the morning.
A couple of minutes ago, Mr. Alvin reminded me to put his blue blanket on the floor for him to lay upon.
It is funny, right, that even without words ….. he can make his “voice” heard.
This time I understood what he wanted.
I know there are sometimes I am not quite certain but have a good idea.
What a guy.
Well Christmas is truly knocking on our doors.
Tonight my daughter is picking me up from work and we are heading to COSTCO.
She is picking up her glasses and likely some groceries as am I.
The last bit from there before Christmas.
I will still need a few things from SAVE-ON and THE BONE AND BISCUIT (some cookies for the pups, they have to have something in their stockings).
Then I will be ready.
It will be a matter of preparing a few items for the Christmas Party on Saturday and then Christmas Eve and Christmas Day.
So excited.
I am excited to have an actual party with lots of people other than my birthday party.
First time in a while.
First big Christmas party in years, perhaps several decades.
WOW, I did not date myself.
This is one of the photos that my daughter took of me and Alvin at Thanksgiving.
October 2018.
We were one block from her house in a smaller city not far from Edmonton.
You would never know that it was bitterly cold with a big wind and then it started to rain.
She, my daughter, can always make us look great.
We are both getting on and she makes us look young.
So grateful for these photos of me and Alvin.
It was a tradition that I started the first fall/autumn after I adopted him.
I have nine photos of us.
Perhaps one of these days I will share them.
I might have to do some searching for them.
Always fun to look at photos.
Different hairstyles and makeup.
A wrinkle here and a pound there.
But that is life.
Well not long and time to leave for work.
My neighbour is giving me a ride this morning.
YAY.
Perfect Wednesday.
Happy Wednesday Everyone.
Have an awesome day.
Special Hello to: my friend “V” …… I hope that you have a few moments to relax and enjoy visiting with your Mom. Please say hi to her for us.
Always, Carol & Alvin
