08-12-21 Things I love about my yard
I think that Dax Shepard and Kristen Bell are just the cutest couple. I love their humour and longevity of relationship and would love to meet them. I think they would just be awesome as friends.
I was so excited to receive my parcel from Georgia, a talented lady in Bella Bella!! Gorgeous hand made earrings! And beautiful packaging with a Great Bear Rainforest sticker I saved
I met with Basem from Andrés electronics today at the Studio to get his opinion on the best sized TV to put in the space for renters to cast to and for our shows to broadcast to. I am really enjoying being able to spend a grant amongst many small vendors in town.
When I went to leave work on my bike, the smoke had socked in since lunch when I met Basem. It is very thick and low and the temperatures are high. I feel bad for my guest tomorrow night who is coming to compete in the Wasa Triathalon. I got her space all ready tonight and am busy thinking about the future. If I am really going to make plans to travel there are several options:
My Mom comes and is able to keep Missy but not the Airbnb space
My Daughter rents from me and can do both
I close up the Airbnb, find a home for Missy, hire a landscaper and hit the road
Sell it all, put what I must keep in storage, stay with Rae when I come back to town and hit the road…
I know the organizations I volunteer for won’t be happy for any of those choices but that is why I won’t make any decision for one more year so I have fulfilled my obligations. It is hard to resign from volunteering because I feel that is the legacy I leave. I have to believe that it is my purpose, to serve. I can’t believe that there is no reason for me to be here. My own mother lived just long enough to get me started in this life, I owe my life and hers to some betterment of society. I know people see me as self centered and egotistical but really at the root of it all is my obligation to my Mom. I do everything I do to honour her and my sister. For some reason, I was not with them that day thus I survived, I must leave some kind of legacy. I don’t know what it is except my children and grandchildren but I will not put that burden on them. I will give when I can and try not to be a burden but live my best life. God, I am maudlin tonight but I think that in the next year I will have to make some big choices that will not make everyone happy… but that won’t be the first time.
Once again, dinner was delicious!
