I worked hard and got a lot done today. I will be glad when all the calculations of subsidies are over signalling a return to the familiar. Of course I will spend the next few years in audit world as CRA ensures it gets back or accounts for every penny spent.
At the end of my day Tina arrived from the office with my special chair. I should have brought it the day I moved home because it has not been good for my body to spend all day in a director’s chair. I am sure I would suffer through if I were a full time Director but for now it is a joy to sit in my proper office chair. She also brought nummy treats from Cobbs and the local newspaper and People magazine. What a doll. All I was able to offer in return was an envelope of shredding and some homemade cookies
I did a personal tax return for an ex-pat living overseas, currently in a lock-down so severe he could be deported if he leaves their house. His partner was kind enought to find someplace to send my money. I remembered today that I hadn’t received an email or anything and that it was a while ago so I messaged to ask how to retrieve it. It was odd as I had to go online to moneygram, put a code and my last name in and find out it was available but then I had to go to the postal outlet in Shoppers Drugmart to actually have them emt the money to me.
The advantage was that aside from the Liquor store and corner store twice I have not been in anywhere and I love Shoppers. There is a little bit of everything now and nearly no one in there so I was able to wander and browse without being risky. Hair conditioner, sour cream, frozen pizza, vitamins and too many treats later, I had spent my earnings but had a lovely date night out on the town.
Came home and had leftover tortiere, did laundry, crocheted and watched my shows and even got all my steps in today! All in all a pretty great day and it was even a Wednesday.
Oh and I did an experiment to see how well my new Tupperware works. Last time I received groceries I got 3 English cukes. One, I used half of and put in a FridageSmart container. The other two were not cut nor put in anything. When I took them all out today to use for a cucumber salad the one in the container was crisp and fresh the other two needed to be used immediately. Pretty impressive. I now sell the stuff but want to know my products well.
