04-08-23 Happy Easter
I was up and made my coffee and settled ready for our ABC Zoom call. It as so nice to catch up on what everyone has been up to, to hear their voices and see their faces. I felt better when we were done. I then got myself showered and headed to Superstore to pick up some groceries and baby carrots. Next stop was the Dollarstore to pick up hollow plastic eggs. I stuffed them with the carrots and put name labels on them all. There were 25 of us all together who met at Bill and Deanne’s for the annual treat hide and hunt. We started with an amazing treat of Jeff’s homemade donuts. The maps were handed out along with a bag of someone’s treats to go hide and put an x on the map. Once we had all done that we collected our own bags and maps back and set to searching. It is always chaos and fun, especially if we find especially good hiding spots. We all got spoiled, the carrot filled eggs were a good source of amusement and most also quickly eaten and then it was in for a spectacular dinner. We all brought parts of the meal that included, ham, veal, scalloped potatoes, cheesy bread, melted brie and bread, and Caesar salad. Ashlée made us all laugh when she brought out dessert that she had ordered at Dairy Queen.
Emmy was so cute, saying, “look Nana, I got my hair cut and coloured and with your cut we look the same !” Bless her heart. All the kids played together so well today, they were a pleasure to have around.
I did finish two puzzles last night and today and have a third nearly done as well. They are smaller but satisfying.
It was a good day to refill my tank with good friends and family. I stopped at the office on the way home and picked up a bunch of paperwork so I can work from home tomorrow. After being around every one, I am not going to see Mom tomorrow. I had a text with her and don’t want to take a chance. That’s a lot of kid germs!
This evening I have watched The Price of Glee. What a documentary! So much ugliness behind the scenes.
