Just another day in the life

05-12-21 Would Derf Wednesday

May 12, 2021


My friend posted in WhatsApp ‘ Oh how would derf that you got away for a bit! ‘ I don’t know why it hits my funny bone just right, rather than wonderful I shall enjoy that new term. And today was a would derf day. I concentrated on getting many things done for Monday in case I have a reaction to my vaccine tomorrow. I discovered a tax calculation error for a new client and we set to making it right. I like to be bullet proof for audits so I only record what I know to be true and can prove if asked. Today I also dealt with two personal tax reviews and had no problem backing up my entries. I took time to just enjoy and mingle a bit in the co-work space as well. Once I was done the day I dropped off a card in the mail, a puzzle to Rae and Sean’s stolen rainbow balloon to Emmy who LOVED it. I then headed to do one last mystery shop and was stunned to experience the ultimate stereotype Albertan in the store. He was arrogant and rude and belittling and I wished I wasn’t working or I would have given him a piece of my mind. Instead I built up the two young men working there and complimented them on their calm handling of it all. I had my first Hello Fresh order in the car and finally got home to unpack it and make dinner. I must admit I enjoyed the whole process. It was like being back at my restaurant, prepping and creating deliciousness. I had three meals in the box, each in it’s own bag on top of cardboard with the meat next on top of ice packs. They threw in a gift of two Strawberry Perrier to try. I had ordered one meatless meal and decided to make it as I was eating so late. It was Mushroom melts on ciabatta buns, two of my favourite things. There was tomato jam which was not the best for my system but delicious going down! I even made sweet potato fries in the oven. All in all I wished I had had someone to share it with but I won’t mind having the second serving tomorrow. I was busy chatting with Rae who had had a terrible reaction to her vaccine but is feeling better now, when I saw subtitles on the TV from a show that was just happening in the back ground and it made me laugh. I also couldn’t believe what I was reading on CBC. Turns out it was ‘Bon Cop, Bad Cop 2’
