I've had quite an active social life lately as last night I went to scrapbooking and picked up a friend along the way. We had a great session then daughter # 1 dropped by with her main squeeze and we went to Tim Horton's for a cup of tea and a nice visit, not making it home until 11 p.m. There were two voice mail messages from daughter # 2 who was filling out her passport application but it was too late to call back so I emailed in the morning saying both the shore captain (attending a meeting) and I were out the evening before with Gary and Stanley outside so they were unable to answer the phone and of course you know what Klyde is like which elicted the following response:
I'm surprised you even emailed me...neglecting your children...pretending that you don't have any now that they are out of the house :P
When we finally caught up on the phone this evening daughter # 2 was pleased to report that they had gotten the air tickets for spring break for $580 versus $850 which they'd expected so she was pretty pumped. She was filling us in on all her courses and how much she enjoys them. Not that she doesn't enjoy life in general being a very positive young lady.
I'm thinking that the prodigal son who only occasionally drops in now has the most to be concerned about being located as his former bedroom has been redesigned into the man cave. He told his father in the bait shed last week that when he had stayed over the last time it was a good thing that he turned on the light instead of just rounding the corner and jumping into bed as he'd have gotten quite a surprise when he hit the middle of the floor in the den.
We're going to have an active social life in November as I got us tickets online for the Jesse Cooke (flamenco/classical guitarist) concert at the Rebecca Cohn auditorium November 18th with details here:
Jesse Cook Tickets
Jesse Cook is a Toronto-based Nuevo Flamenco guitarist, born in Paris to Canadian parents. Like other guitarists of his style of music, he incorporates jazz, latin & world music into his playing. Cook is also well known for the energy of his live shows & has a rock-star status in his country.We usually try to do a social event before the grueling lobstering routine kicks in. We saw him perform a couple of years ago and he was great!
Must get settled for sleep as I have to head to the district facility tomorrow. It is pay day and that is the only positive I can see lately from work.
