10-05-21 Fuckedy fuck… Score!
Roller frickin’ coaster again today. I awoke to remember Mark was here. Got on the treadmill then took a careful shower as I can’t find my new amazing shower curtain yet, Then it was quick goodbyes and off to the office I went. The problem was I had had a glance at my email and I saw that I had a client leaving to go back to the Firm I used to work for who are their current accountants. I was actually ok in the long run and they did give me a months notice as per our contract. I only wish I knew exactly why. Not the, you are being polite and kind reason, but the, who threw me under a bridge reason. It sat with me, a simple obsession. Once again I carefully chose my response, filed their remittances and got ready to do the last month of entry. Then I checked in on my UK Besties and all the love. It is Linda’s birthday and they are frolicking in the Yorkshire area. No rain kept them down. How could I let anything get me down, I am Marnée, the gatherer of friends, the one who loves with abandon and would do anything to see her friends smile. They smiled today and all is right with my world. My day was insanely multitastic and in the middle of a GST review/audit with CRA, a client from another town stopped in with his paperwork and news. He is on his way to Alberta to see about purchasing another business, a plan to expand his already booming business and just when I had a wee gap in my capacity, he asked about online payroll and remittances and set me up to access his bank so I could do it all for him, taking some of the load off. To have that kind of trust from a man who went through a nasty divorce, who lost a good deal to a woman he trusted, and yet gave me full access to his finances… that is worth gold. I am filled with gratitude and honoured by his trust in me. And that, my friends, made up for all things earlier. It seemed to be a reason for all that happened, as a matter of fact.
There was much flurry of email, text and calls re volunteer things but so many good results. I have deadlines now for getting back into the theatre and all will be met.
After work there was much joy as I picked up my neighbour, Tracey and headed to meet family at the special Bucks game. I had seen the tickets available right away and jumped on them to grab 3/4 of a row 9 rows up from the ice, between the benches for the Bucks vs Canadas National Women’s Hockey Team. This exhibition game was intended to keep the ladies practiced before the ‘real’ game. I had no idea their birthdates ranged from 1985 to 2001, so much fepower! They got their butts kicked by our Bucks but it was so much fun and they seemed to keep a good head about them, It may have helped that everyone was loudly cheering for them and sidebar cheering for the Bucks. My fave moment was honestly when they all threw down their gear and fixed their hair into ponies before the group photo.
Unfortunately, during the second intermission, I stood and stepped sideways to go up to the loo but suddenly I had excruciating pain in my right hip. I could barely walk up. I spent the third period watching from the mezzanine level. As soon as I got home, I ran my first bath, took a couple gabapentin and watched an episode of YOU. It was a good soak and I hauled myself out with gratitude that I could stand. I had a hard time deciding what my bevie of choice was though….

One of the biggest highlights of my day was getting a spontaneous, comforting hug from my friend Keon just before the women caught a goal as the clock ticked down.
