Just another day in the life

03-07-24 Oh, her Heart!

March 7, 2024


I woke up very early this morning and decided to get up. I hadn’t even had time to make a coffee when I got a text to call Mom’s cousin, Donna asap. I was anticipation very bad news. It was not as bad as I thought, but I was stunned to learn that she had had a heart attach last night and was in hospital waiting to go to Kelowna for a stent. She took her blood pressure at home and it was something like 240/180!! She wanted to let me know and have me tell my Mom as today was the day she usually get’s her groceries for her. I waited until it was late enough to call Mom and was grateful that Bill offered when I reached out to go get her grub.

Today was full after that. I was at the office earlier than usual. I went to the Rotary lunch where a guy was giving his bio. He was really interesting and touched a lot of people there who had him for a teacher here over the years. After we had a short meeting about the Gala and then it was back to the office to work on my own reconciling. There was something very wrong in my balances and it turns out that BMO was screwed up in the bank feed, downloading the pending and final expenses. It became evident when I saw two of each purchases in California, at slightly different amounts. They didn’t both go through but they both posted in my software. I was glad to get that sorted out as I am determined to file my taxes before anyone else’s this year. This shall not be the year that the cobbler’s kids go without shoes.

I came home and watched the first two episodes of BBCan while I gambled a little online. Turned $200 into over $600 and called it a night.

I am winding down watching The Voice and hope to sleep well tonight.

I did just hear from Donna and she is likely have in surgery in the morning. Her son and husband will be there. Her oldest daughter will v come tend her at home. Family blessings.
