Monday, I did a few financial transactions to help out people very meaningful to me... I also paid the $100 annual fee to use my air-conditioner because it is presently working a fair amount.
This week is very warm, in the 30's, with hazy cloud, but not really any forest fire smoke descending yet... We are most certainly going to experience that soon, and intend to have all our fans pointed south towards the White House....
Tuesday, I broke down and called in my house cleaner. She was late getting here and I had dusted the whole premises before her arrival. It always feels good to have that chore accomplished.
I also ordered more "stuff" from Amazon... but it is stuff that should be helpful...
Wednesday, I checked online and Freshco has a specific bag of sunflower seeds that I like on special. I go through a bag per day while reading, so I usually have a supply on hand... I get to the store, 6 kms away, checked with several employees, and they have none in stock, and would not give me a raincheck... Grrrrr
I spotted the "Spitz" brand on a display with several bags having a $1 off coupon stuck to them.. I grabbed every one with the sticker, 24 bags and went to the till. She pulled off one sticker and said the info on the back (not visible to the consumer) restricts the coupon to one per customer. I complained and she got a floor supervisor to call the manager who finally OK'd my full purchase... Sheesh....
Today, I cleaned up and went on the Gio to exchange books at the Library, but did not dally long downtown.
Coming back, I stopped by the Regal to check the rosebush in front of my car. I am so pleased to see three rosebuds forming already!
Now, I will busy myself working on photos for a few hours before meeting another resident here, David, for Thursday fish'n'chips at The Common...
My son hurt his arm at work so is currently undergoing tests for WCB. So we are making plans to meet for lunch when he is available.
I hope you enjoy the pictures. That was the day’s excitement.
