08-19-23 Games Night
This morning was ridiculously cold given the temperatures we have had for the last while.
I put a final coat on my 3000 piece puzzle that has been taking up my table for a year and a half. I bought an awesome product off Amazone that came with little paint brushes that promises to dry waterproof. Yesterday I put a coat on the front and was able to turn it over and coat the back. This morning I ruined it back over and put a second coat on the front. I intend it to be a mat in my den.
I did a lot of puttering and chores this morning, recycle, litter box, rehanging a coat hanger, and watering my garden. I received a call that my jewelry was ready at Delamont. I had taken a ring to get fixed and another to get sized that Auntie Trish gave me. As I had some spare gold, it only cost me $10 rather than the $90 each. When I was leaving I received a text from Monica to see if I could pick her up to go bottle our wine batches. We had a great time and afterword I dropped my wine at home, picked up salad and dessert and headed to her place. We played 3 games of Patchwork and then had a delicious vegetarian dinner. After dinner Galen, Monica, Zoey and I played ticket to ride, which was new to them. I believe we all had a good time. It was good for my soul.
While I was there I received a call from my cousin Rosie, who I stayed with in July that she, Uncle Bryan and Auntie Lynne were packed and leaving their homes as the fire had jumped Shuswap Lake and was too close to them. I had asked this morning if we should be having our family reunion given the province’s state of emergency. It has been decided to cancel it which is sad but is also the right thing.
