we went to Aquasize today… we were happy because we found the lockers that returned your quarter… I’d put all my possessions into the locker, before I realized that there was no safety pin on the key…

I had a towel above the locker, so I placed the key inside it and saved having to change lockers… when we left I advised the front desk staff and they will have it fixed…

and I wore my sandals for the first time… actually had on socks when we went but didn’t wear them on the way home;-)…

yay…

battery, big girl pants, blessed, charger, doorbell, google, key, moments, smart home, Technology, widow

on May 25th the new doorbell arrived…

no time to sort it out until that Sunday when I was able to charge it…

on Monday, the 29th, we managed to get it up onto the doorframe and working…

since then it has worked on and off… the battery is supposed to last for three weeks, but late on Saturday it advised it turned itself off and needed to be charged…

I found the special key to remove it from the door, then the charging cord, charged it, and was able to hook it back up…

woohoo;-)…

emotions…

beloved, big girl pants, emotions, garden, hidden, house, iPhone, key, missing, safe, widow

the other night when I got dropped off at home I couldn’t find my house key…

stood at the back of my friend’s vehicle searching through my bag in the dark, dumping everything out, with no success…

they waited while I turned on my iPhone flashlight and headed to the back of the house to dig out the spare key…

brought back lots of emotions because when my beloved died I realized that I couldn’t just call him if I lost or forgot it… found a spot to stash it so I would be safe if I came home without a way to get in…

rather happy I was able to find it as I haven’t needed to use it since I put it in its hiding spot…

it was a bit dirty, but worked;-)…

and the next morning I put it right back to keep me safe…

action, big girl pants, impact, key, left-handed, leftie, mirror, sling, transpose, widow

the other day I wrote about being a leftie…

the rental car I’m driving has the most interesting key…

there is a button on the top left of it to open and close the metal part of the key, like a switchblade…

it is made for a right handed person…

when I try to open it, using my left hand, it opens and closes into my fingers, so doesn’t actually work…

such a little thing, but what a pain…

yesterday we were practicing putting slings on one another during our First Aid Training and I was feeling a bit under the weather… which meant I couldn’t transpose all of the actions quickly… lefties must mirror everything that we see and if you aren’t paying close attention it can be difficult…

eventually I got the sling on correctly…

little things can have an amazing impact… whatever they are, lol…

door…

beloved, big girl pants, door, key, remote, Shadow, starter

excited to see the deck covered in a fresh dusting of snow when I opened the back door this morning…

  
it always looks so beautiful when everything is white for that short period of time…

left work a bit early and drove to the edge of the city to take the car back to the dealership…

have been very impressed with their assistance since I purchased the car… 

on Sunday, when I was in a parking lot after shopping, the driver’s door wouldn’t open… at first I thought I was using the wrong button… now there is the key with the door open and close spots and the remote starter with open and close buttons…  

tried them all, many times, but nothing would open the driver’s door… eventually phoned my daughter who suggested I go in and open it from the other side… after that it seemed to work fine… of course the worry is that it might happen again…

called the next day and my sales guy suggested I bring it in so they could check it out…

he wasn’t there today, but the Sales Manager met with me and had a look… of course, everything worked perfectly… we also went over how the remote starter worked… I think I get it now, lol… he advised that I could use either of the buttons to open the door…

he gave me his direct phone number and email address and said if it happened again to call him personally and he would arrange for a rental car and they would test the car until it happened again so they knew what it was and could fix it…

they really do want everything to go well…

it was overcast all day and when I was walking back to the car Shadow really looked purple although the picture doesn’t show it quite as well…

  
thinking my beloved would be proud of me as I slip those big girl pants on more easily each day…
