Just another day in the life

08-24-21 Start the car!

August 25, 2021


My lovely guest left this morning and I stripped, cleaned and reset the tent trailer for the next guest arriving tonight. I then headed to have my car checked and found out I am awaiting a software update that will recognize my oversized tires so the low tire warning light will stop coming on. After I left the dealership I headed to Canadian Tire to pick up batteries for my weather station and a filter for my furnace. The filter section was near the clearance section and I was shocked to see the Thule J holders for kayaks that I have been pricing out at around 259.00 on sale for 50 because the box was opened. I grabbed it and when I got home finally and was able to open it all, I found every bit to be there in perfect condition!!! It was like the Ikea commercial where the woman runs out yelling START THE CAR because she can’t believe the deal she got.

I did have one weird thing happen at work. As I was typing a subject line in an email it entered in completely backward… too weird.

My newest guest called at 4 that she was near my place but unsure where to go so I shut it down for the day and headed home. Turns out we completely clicked and she is from London UK but looking to move to the area. I hope she does because I think we could be good friends. I had a Hello Fresh that involved BBQ grilling so I got it all ready, added a couple corns of cob and invited her to join me which involved more great conversation. It was a shame I had to run off to a board meeting. I am rather thrilled how well the cooking turned out as I only use the BBQ when the kids are over and Roger or Gene cook.

The board meeting was successful in that I was supported in the extra money I need to accomplish all our tech needs. Afterwards I went out with a friend and solved all the worlds problems over a bevie and then deked into Shotties to check out the renovation before driving her home. I can’t say I will return but it is nice.

It i nice to have a peer group to share ideas and dreams with! Not sure I should stay up until after midnight on a work night though, may be getting too old for that!!!
