10-04-22 work…
Got up and skipped the treadmill to make a meal I could have for lunch and dinner (or and lunch the next day). Had another crazy full day. At noon, Natalia, the Ukrainian lady showed up and I set her up on my laptop to work on a file as ‘school’ as she called it. It amazes me how well she is progressing with her English and along with that new knowledge we used the translator app on her phone and my google. She was an accountant in her home of Kiev where her husband stayed due to the borders closing to men leaving. He sent her and her 17 year old daughter to Canada for safety. I am honoured to be part of her journey here. It was a lot to take on right now but she worked away and I answered questions as I got other things done. I didn’t put time down for the file she is working on and reduced the time on the one I was busy with. Some things are more important than the $$$ and I hope they have much success and that their family gets to reunite soon. I spoke with Mom a couple times and mad a list of things to pick up for her. After work I went to Walmart and got the things she wanted and a few more that I knew she would appreciate. i will drop them off on the way to work in the morning.
