02-24-22 oh the news…
Nose down in the books today, intermittently being interrupted by the news. Russia has launched an attack on the Ukraine. My heart hurts deeply for a country rich in history, art and music. One of my favourite bands to listen to is DakhaBrakha. I even have Emmy listening to them when she is here. I was introduced to them at MusicFest and was pleased to see them in a small venue as well. They are from Kyiv. I worry for them and their loved ones. How do we live in a world that this can still be happening?! It is hard to stomach that there are so many atrocities on this small planet.
The show was amazing tonight, Matt left it all on the stage. After seeing so many nights already, he choked me up again. I picked up the new laptop today and was pleased that the resident expert felt it a good choice for the tech needs. While I was waiting for him I saw an employee leaving for the day. She had to put her purse and lunch bag on the counter to be looked in before she left. This disturbed me. Apparently it is common practice in retail but I do not think it was appropriate to do it in front of customers.
I have one client to get entered tomorrow and file their GST. I have a good feeling about it. The only negative right now is that I still can’t find my set of keys. Fortunately I have my car and theatre ones. I lost the mail, office and bank fob which is the biggest issue. I am going to keep searching and then if not found we will report it and cancel it on Monday. I purposely did not have it with my car keys so it couldn’t be identified to me… sigh.
