01-26-24 One more sleep
Well, all I can say is that this day was as long as January feels. I got all my GST filed and my big payroll that I would usually do next week was able to be done today. THAT is a blessing. I am not going to pretend that I was not filled with anxiety and worried that I would forget something. As usual, many last minute things came down the line but I was able to either deal with them or push them off. I have my out of office on my email and I am done. Being a self-employed individual is not for the faint of heart.
I went to visit my friend Gord who continues to hang onto the positivity of believing that he will beat his cancer. This is a good attitude for him, but hard on those around him. I had a nice visit even though there were others there, letting his lovely wife download the horror that is her life right now. I am so glad she is going to go on medical leave and be able to be home, not working, taking the time that is left. Gordon gave me a stack of stickers and asked me to pick the one that spoke to me. That was easy, being that we are both Red Dwarf fans.
I have my things ready and alarms set for 4 am, just need to stop at the bank machine and pull some US cash as I didn’t have my debit card with me. I am grateful that Keri let me know that I could get US cash out of the RBC machine so I shall try it in the morning.
I guess that I am officially on holidays now, although my laptop is packed and ready to go with what I need to next week.
