Today felt a little all over the place but also full of promise. Viola and I popped out to Staples when I got the email that my scanner had arrived. On the way back we stopped at Safeway and I dropped a plant and M&Ms to Rae who was having a bad day.
Later I popped out again to go look at a place for an idea I have. More will be revealed. As much as I want to talk about it a lot, I know I need to take a breath, look at all angles and make a plan as it involves other people.
The work day ended up with volunteering to pour drinks and pre-set them for two Chantal Krevaciuk shows at the Royal Alexandra Hall, sponsored by Huckleberry Books. I was super impressed with the precautions in place for between shows, especially Galen and his Ghostbusters outfit. Once again Chantal owned the room with her singer songwriter tales of origin.
When I came out it had snowed but was more crystals and I was able to sweep it away when i got home.
At the last minute I decided it was a beautiful evening and walked down to the mailbox. There was junk mail and an envelope from The UK!! Dang that Mrs. H though, the packet was so well sealed I almost had to put a return to sender on it as I couldn’t open it. It did put a huge grin on my face when I opened it to find a postcard and sheep from Stonehenge. That day with them last year on Friday Sept 13th was on e of the brain scar moments of my life. That they were there and thought of me… well that is the true gift of friendship isn’t it. Miles, minutes nor pandemics can keep us apart. I miss my UK Framily and just rest in the knowledge that someday we will meet and hug again, somewhere in the world.
