Just another day in the life

10-30-22 A no bookkeeping day

October 30, 2022


I slept well, puttered at chores around the house, made a nummy stew for ‘lupper’ and pretty much use hung out at home today. it was good for me not to do any work, although I did check in with a client who would want me to come to his business. He had not done the ‘homework’ I left him last Sunday so I decided not to go. I was glad for this.

Many things have been running through my mind.

Malcolm and Danika let us know yesterday that they are pregnant again, Emmy seems happy about that. Another bonus grandkid for me.

Diane had called my UK besties and the rest of my ABCs, my angels. She feels they are a grounding caring group in my life and I have to agree. I miss them and look forward to the potential of seeing Eastern Canada together in the near future. I sometimes wish I had a duel income, or had kept a job with a pension so I could truly retire and travel. I am not sure that is in my future but I will continue to have hope and set goals.

It is time to work at getting my home sorted and purged, the first step towards any goals. It will help to offer much to Natalia and her daughter as they are getting their apartment soon.

I need to start reading more, I miss it but don’t make the time for it.

My 3000 piece puzzle is still on my table, unfinished. As the weather is changing, I expect the habit will return.

This is the first Halloween in as long as I can remember that I didn’t even decorate my office. This speaks to my lack of enthusiasm about being there and tells me the decision to work toward only a couple days a week there is a good one. I will need to work on getting an office set up here again to do so though.

Rae-Anne may need me to fill some shifts at Arby’s. This would help me as I would ask that most of my wage goes to tax, bringing down the amount I would owe at the end of the year. Even if it is just cleaning, hosting kind of work, it would help them and accomplish what I need.

I have forgotten how much I do just enjoy my own company and can volunteer on occasion to get social time.

This week will be fun as I put together the volunteer party on Friday night. I will bring Lukas with me early to set up and look forward to the 36 people or so expected to attend.

Tracey let me know today that she will be home from her daughters in time for handing out treats tomorrow night. I am glad but the weather is threatening to be liquid so that is a downer.

I am going to climb into a bath bombed tub now, watch some Disney and tune out the thoughts to wind down for an early bed tonight.
