big girl pants, conspicuous, dinner, family, hockey, Jets, party, people, whiteout, widow

tonight after work I met up with my kids downtown and we had dinner together before they attended the #wpgwhiteout party and I headed home…

on the way there they had stopped in at the Jets store to pick up some white Jets t-shirts and I think a hoodie or two, lol…

I did feel conspicuous walking to the restaurant without wearing some piece of Jets clothing, lol… good thing I had white capris on and a black and white top…

the youngest asked his mom if I’d be going to the #whiteoutparty as well and she advised there were “way too many people for grandma to go” and she was absolutely correct…

just getting from the restaurant back to the office and the car had me sweating and people were just starting to arrive… thankfully my son-in-law walked with me…

my daughter sent me this shot of the crowd around them…

too many people for me;-)…

money…

beloved, big girl pants, early, garden, groceries, hockey, money

busy day… up fairly early because the birds were singing away before dawn… had a few tough moments missing my beloved… amazing how those moments just materialize and you have to wait them out…

went to Dollarama looking for a small drinking glass but they didn’t have any… I did find a cute tray… looks a bit like the dining room chairs, lol…  on to the grocery store where I loaded up on veggies and some tulips jumped into my cart…  grocery shopping is getting more expensive, but I have tons of healthy food for the next week or so… once everything was put away, had a nap and lunch… 

sat in the garden reading for a few hours and then the kids arrived for dinner… steak and lobster with baked potato, mushrooms. asparagus and Caesar salad… yummy… 

doorbell rang and a fellow was wanting to do some yard work to raise money for his hockey playing son…  while we finished cleaning up the kitchen, he and his family cleaned out the front flower bed and raked the front yard…

ran out to take a picture of the finished product and caught the mallards, who live in our creek, as they flew over…  excellent day…
