Really? Again?

Today was a lovely day.... as are most! Awake too damn early but the tree guy came and sprayed the elms as they are diseased this year.... so then I had to wash the deck down so the dogs didn't get sick..... planted a few more geraniums... don't know why I love this flower.... it just seems courageously strong and bright and doesn't give up easily!

The "retirement" function at the Police Station was good... Jan picked me up so I had company which definitely made it easier. I received a plaque from the RCMP which blew me away - after everything I said to them about their lack of service to victims! Oh, well, easy to be nice when the person is walking out the door. Also received cards from the Crown Prosecutors' Office with several gift cards enclosed and from the Domestic Violence Action Team... gift cards there too! As well the Management of the Service gave me a card with a ton of gift cards inside! All for food and books... my two favourite things! One for a garden centre as well and I will buy a beautiful bush for the front of the house. And one for Pier One so I shall have to buy something that commemorates my years here.

Jan, Maynard, Julie and Ian and I went for a drink and nibbles at the Mocha and were joined by Don and Barb Lamont later.... Chadsey also turned up.... he's one weird guy.... never know where he's at which I think is what he strives for! Such a waste of time.

Home... wash... cooked chicken for dogs and now I am going to bed to read!
