Just another day in the life

I got up at a decent time with great plans for the day. I read my messages to see Diane had found a stainless steel range hood for sale for only $10. I contacted the seller and went to pick it up. It looks in great shape and is the same type I installed in a previous kitchen on Salt Spring. I emptied my car and got ready in case I do go to Trail. I also took my recycle to the bin and dropped my refundables for the SPCA. Next was to go do two Gas station missions for the mystery shopping company I work for on the side. They took a long time start to finish but I did need gas and my car needs to be on empty to get two missions in with gas purchases. I actually enjoyed both of them as the staff at both were so great. It is such a treat to find super nice and helpful people in service level jobs. There were two young people who really took pride in keeping the cleanest store bathroom I have ever seen. I was happy to report that and hope management rewards them. I have 3 more to do but have until the end of the month. I think one of them will need to be done during the week as it is a card lock.

Came home tired out and my throat a little sore so made some food and watched another episode of The Drew Barrymore show. I really want to like it but I just don’t. I have always adored her but just can’t handle her style in this setting. I feel the same about Kelly Clarkson. Treacle is not my taste. Ellen has come to be more of the opposite. She is generous, or her sponsors are, but her humour seems mostly based on humiliating others. No more Daytime TV for me. I switched to something completely different and watched the first two episodes of ‘NEXT’. It stressed me a little bit, will have to see if I stick with it. It’s a sort of Alexa takes over the world theme. Don’t trust your devices and after watching the documentary on that subject recently… oh who am I kidding, I am not going to get rid of my devices but then again there is nothing in my life they will care to take over.

There was a knock at my door and it was Rae-Anne with holiday ice cream sandwiches which is a treat I look forward to. Fudgesicles and ice cream sandwiches remind me of time spent with my Granddad and are my fave treats. Sweet of her to bring them. My throat is sore still so I shall have one and then a lozenge and take myself to bed early. Sleep heals.

I had bought a new mask last night and will wear it through to Wednesday for sure, Lest I forget.
