Hope you're all well!
I have a minute, maybe 10; and I am drinking a beer, but thinking about going to blow snow!
I did get the Advent baby gift delivered this week!
It was a BIG hit, and they were excited for the weekend (today) to start!!!
Monday this week I had an FCSS (Family & Community Support Services).
It was short & sweet so did dinner with a friend!
Tuesday was a FOML (Friends of the Manning Library).
That was short & sweet too, and afterwards we had a
This was my contribution + a bottle of Two Colors wine from Dr. Zen Zen.
These are 2 Bite Cheesecake, and Rum Balls
Earlier this week I saw this guy!
Not the same as the Hogwarts Owl last year, but maybe someone's cousin!
Buster thought I was working too hard one day, and strolled into my office,
and flopped his head on my knee!
Or maybe he just wanted a little TLC!
WE let him in the office to thaw out on cold days, cause he won't go in the shop.
These guys were on the road!
It's SNOWING again, so the least snow is on the road!
THURSDAY!? SERIOUSLY!?
WhooptyFreakinDo! OY!
I did Happy Hour at the Old Folks Home last night. And it WAS happy!
This morning was a funeral for one of my old friends from the OFH!
He was the one who took an alarm clock to a picnic, cause his watch broke.
The alarm wouldn't shut off!
He sat behind me on the bus, and told EVERYONE that would listen that I drove 100 mph.
We're metric here people....he just didn't get that memo! We had a talk!
He also didn't get to sit in the seat behind me anymore!
I have a ton more stories; I tried to be sad, but we'd just get the giggles.
He had a tiny framed picture of him & I that sat at his place in the dining room when I quit!
He showed it to me one day.
Me: "Where are we?"
Him: "Idunno"
Me: "What are we doing?"
Him: "Idunno"
Me: "Well we're sure happy!"
The family's going to give it to me!
I was an honorary pallbearer, and it WAS an honor!
I think he was autistic (somewhat), also obsessive compulsive, I learned a lot of patience with him;
he was exasperating at times, but always made me smile!
I'll miss him! He was 84.
I came home and made 3 batches of poppycock!
One of Vanessa friends in Vancouver wrote this about it earlier this week!
Yaaay!!! Haha. Gail, are you making poppycock this year? If so, I would love to place an order. Its not Christmas without your poppycock!! Xo
You're the best! I rave about your poppycock here!!!
That's how much I love it. Whatever you can do...no pressure. I'll live without if you can't. Totally OK!
I left out the part about how it must be laced with CRACK cause that's how addictive it is!
GAWD!
Anyhoo, as you can see, there's no pressure (yeah right), so I got right on it!
Gonna mail it out on Monday, cause he's not coming home for Christmas.
Finally we got the snow removal flag down to the end of the driveway, BEFORE the grader went by, and here he is!!!!
I was so happy to see him, I ran outside with a bag of poppycock for him too!
Tis the season after all!
I DID make a card this week; when you ask?
.........Must have been in my sleep!
I have to make the kids different Christmas cards this year (usually I make them the same);
they post them on Facebook these days!
Not sure if it's a competition or what!
I still want to make a Thank You for Kalen & his friends for hanging out with me while I was there!
Anyhoo, here's the card!
I got the inspiration over here!
I have a few more cards in my pointed little head,
but I really think I'm going to fire up the snow blower!
Talk to ya later!
Ta ta for now!
