Just another day in the life

03-12-26 Elevator Grand Opening, Oh My!

March 12, 2026


The snow was all gone this morning, barely a memory. I went into the office for a very short time to make some payments and then picked up the piece of linoleum donated from affordable floors for our gala decor and headed to the Rotary luncheon. The speakers today were Brenna and Stephanie about Cranbrook Burger month. It was a highly amusing presentation as Steph warned us to hold onto our horses and then made a comment at one point that when the pandemic hit and an opportunity came to keep her work at the fire hall she said, of course I want to work. I need to make money. My feet aren’t pretty enough. I’m not sure how many people in that room even knew what she was talking about but I let out a big guffaw that’s for sure.

After the meeting Nadine MaryAnn and I all went to the storage locker and rearrange things into the order that we had previously and ready things for taking to the gala. The space is quite amazing now.

Back at the office, I filed a complicated tax return for a nonresident before heading for a bite to eat at F&B to be met by a new bartender, Nick. He seems nice enough. He’s just very young and I think that one of the servers has the hots for him.

From there, I went to the elevator grand opening at Key City Theatre. I was a lovely little soirée and I had nice visits. I took a fun picture of Dennis Walker from the radio station, local photographer, Brian Clarkson, and newspaper photographer Trevor Crawley.

The ladies and I were first up the elevator after the dignitaries. And on the ride down by myself, the door is open to find me photo bombing a picture of the board in front of the doors. Everyone had a good laugh.

The Weber Brothers, whom I follow on Facebook, put out a post asking for pictures of mothers and sons. I posted two of my favourites and when I posted the first one I put the comment that he said I looked like a princess and they almost immediately responded He’s right! That was very sweet
