Just another day in the life

03-19-22 Dang we lost

March 19, 2022


Didn’t sleep as long as I hoped after staying up too late last night. Relaxed on the couch catching up on some shows, made a delicious lunch that turned out to be hard on my system. I suspected there was paprika in the spices but it really was soooooo good. After lunch I had a nice long talk with my friend Mary Lynn whom I miss. Salt Spring Island is just too darn far away. I got myself to the office and took care of some more tax returns and data entry on a big file before coming home to change and head to the last Buck’s game of the regular season that I can go to. There is a rescheduled one next Saturday with the Wenatchee team that couldn’t travel back in January. I had already committed to volunteering at Key City Theatre that night so I transferred my ticket to Ashlée. As I suspected, Rob Niedermayer and his family were there again tonight and two of the Grandsons went and asked him for his autograph. He was smiley and nice and personalized them which made this Nana happy. Gene kept offering to go and tell him that his Nana was a big fan but I wouldn’t let him. I already have his and Scott’s autographs on my first jersey and it was enough to have a laugh and quick chat as we were filing out. The Penticton Vees solidly beat us tonight just as we had done to them last night. There were a lot of hard hits, injuries and fighting, including several game misconducts. As we were walking I told him this is how I felt when the Ducks would win in Vancouver, like I was the only one excited. He gave me a huge smile and a laugh. I’ll take that.

Called my mom when I got home to check in and she told me she is coming up. I honestly hadn’t really wanted her to come as she is nearly 81 now and I don’t want to worry about her driving, nor will I have time or energy to care for her. She did say she will stay in Kimberley with her brother and I know she is fretting and needs to be here, so I am putting all thoughts in the box and letting it ride for now. Had a great download with my cousin Rosie and that was good as she just understands.

I feel good and healthy in spite of much although I have a headache tonight which is unusual. I guess i will take a pill and get some rest, lots to do in this next week and a half.

Rae-Anne gifted me the perfect mug today…
