Today was fit in as much work as I can around my monthly maintenance of all things. Left work for my brow waxing then picked up Ashley at the office and we went to Rotary lunch. It was very interesting as I didn’t know we had cadaver dogs in Cranbrook. Thyme and his trainer Sharon gave an interesting presentation. To recertify he has to find the source in an 80 acre property within 2 hours! They use placenta for training!
Dropped Ashley off and registered for the District Conference in Nelson May 2-3. I will be able to share a room with Leanne. I was so excited to realize I could make that happen as Nelson is only an hour or so from Mark and Kaslo and I will be picking him up that next day. It all worked out perfectly. I am now very excited about things that are coming up.
Next was getting my nails done A little Spring and bling
After meeting with Maxime, working on her taxes, and sending her home with homework, I headed over to the theatre to emcee the last of the Winter Ale series. There was a big mixup when they switched to the new ticketing system and although the event was supposed to be at 7 PM and it even said that on all advertising and media, the tickets said 7:30. I couldn’t figure out why nobody was there until 6:35
Oh well, that’s my job as the MC to keep things running and everybody seemed pretty cool and stayed right till the end. Aaron Alander was the opener and he did an entire original set on his guitar that he just finished making, a 12 year project.
Suzie was phenomenal, as a human and a performer. Turns out we have 25 friends in common on Fb, lol. She signed and gave me one of her CDs.
She also played an Amazing version of my favourite song
Ethan Askey joined her for a couple. They had met on Hornby Island
The finale was fantastic!
It was so lovely at the end when so many people purposely came to thank me for the season and hope to see me next year. This lovely little old lady named Trudy gave me a huge hug and thanked me for being the highlight of her winter. What a blessing.
