I ran a few errands before work. First stop was to drop off a bunch of interior design books to Diane. She was very happy with them. Next stop was to pick up my newest Scentsy from my cousin Becky. I saw it in our Duck Fan group and asked if she could get it for me. I love it!! It is the perfect addition to my office. On the way from Diane’s, just up the block there is a flock of ducks that hang out there. Was so odd to see them on the snow on the side of the road that I had to stop and take a picture. It was a Duck kind of day!
I managed to get done all things necessary for the month so I don’t have to go in this weekend. At the end of my day I had a lovely FaceTime with my Granddaughter Emmy and her Mom, Danika. It has been a long time and I am looking forward to her staying here next weekend with Jake. She was quite charming and then she was done. 3 is so cute. After tonight I will be more isolated so we will all be safe next weekend.
After work I went to Campbells for a delicious homemade chicken put pie and salad. Aiden and I made a run for drive thru Dairy Queen for all which I definitely did not need but it was so good. Well, except I forgot to say no pineapple on my banana split. I do not like the odd textured chunks. We all settled in to watch the second in the Narnia Chronicles trilogy. Prince Caspian. I still can’t believe I haven’t seen them. I devoured the books. It was so different from the first one. I enjoyed it though and look forward to the last one. I really enjoy Aiden’s company and he gives great hugs. Fills the Grandson void a bit.
So much to do this weekend, need to get further along on the kitchen and I must ready the den for Jake and Emmy. First though I will join the YouTube stream of Murray Clarke’s memorial tomorrow. Mr and Mrs C moved to the Neighbourhood when I was a pre-teen. I babysat their two kids, Lynda and Kevin. They became our extended family. I still think of the kids as my little sister and brother. We said good-bye to their lovely Mom, Angie some years ago and now will send off their Dad in the best style possible these days. I am sure his two grandsons will miss him terribly. I will always be grateful for him training me on my first real camera and giving me a love for seeing the world through a lens and photo blogging my life. I have always kept and cherished a bird he carved many years ago. Rest In Peace Mr. C
