Just another day in the life

10-29-23 Bravo!

October 29, 2023


I relaxed for the morning, drinking coffee and watching my shows. I was trying to decide what to do next, go to the office or build my carport when I laughed and accepted the suggestion by the guy that I take a day off and not go to the office.

So, that is what I did, got out in the cool fall air and started working. The dentist called to see if I could come early as they had a cancellation.

Before that I drove through A&W, picked up lunch and went to visit Mom. While I was there, I paid her bills and took care of outstanding things. It was good to catch up.

The change in the dentist time worked out perfectly as I ran to get my cleaning after lunch and then came back to get building. I was part way into it when my neighbour, Tracey, became available and I truly couldn’t have done it without her. It is not perfect, but half is done and I am so thrilled. I am also in a lot of pain. It was hard on my hand and elbow. Self drilling screws do not always go in easily.

I made a nice dinner and then headed to the The Stage Door to see Don’t Dress For Dinner. I was very impressed with the show. It is awesome when I can honestly say that all performers carried their roles with aplomb. It was also interesting as the play was done in black and white, like an old time movie. This is something I have always wanted to try. It is interesting how much the actors mouths show in colour!

When the show was over, I headed to Encore for the Halloween Bash with Pretty For the People. It was a lot of fun and great to hang with my daughters and son-in-law. Roger came in second in the costume contest as The Chicken Man and our friend Maddi and her friend won as the Step-Brothers. I decided to go wearing my Founder’s jacket and act like I owned the place. The funny thing was, I lined up for a drink and a server way down the bar saw me, waved the Crown Royal bottle and said I’ll start you a tab. The rest of the night went that way, I didn’t have to wait at all. Membership has it’s privileges, lol.

All in all, it was a great day and I think I shall enhance my evening in order to get a good sleep.
