Just another day in the life

09-01-23 Ticking boxes and making plans

September 1, 2023


My day at the office was greatly improved when I got a text from Jake that he was here and agreed to do early lunch. He picked me up at the office and after a fun photo session, we agreed that Hot Shots was the place. The Pad Thai Bowls we had were amazing… and Jake paid!

His license plate kills me. I did suggest it say, Just Kill Me on the frame. I pitched him Nerd Nana as an unboxing for the ‘older” set. I could tell he was not amused, but I think the idea has merit and it will rattle around on his drove home.

I popped out to do some errands and stopped at both the car dealership and a client to take care of business.

Once I got back to the office I was becoming stressed as I still hadn’t received a batch of time sheets. By the time they finally sent them, I was getting annoyed as it was late on Friday of a long weekend. After all it turned out alright as I connected with Sonia, my roadtrip companion next month. It was Saturday morning in Perth and we chatted about our plans and where to stay, when.

I stopped at the liquor store for martini makings and then SavOn to get olives (which turned out to have pits but were delicious) and also picked up bacon wrapped scallops for dinner. Once I got home and cooked I went for a walk around our big block with Tracey. Once I got home I enjoyed my food and martinis and after puzzling for a bit while I watched Big Brother and AGT, I decided to watch Stand By Me. It has been a while and honestly, it is still amazing.
