received a chocolate tasting package from my daughter months ago…

we finally got together via Google Duo and did the tasting together… the last time I participated in one was over Christmas in her dining room… it was set up beautifully…

this one was certainly different… I didn’t think to put them on a pretty plate, but did have them lined up and with the note pages… in the end I felt very happy and enjoyed what I had learned… she really helped me discover the different notes of the five pieces of chocolate;-)…

my favourite was a Qantu 70% Chuncho bar…

next time it would be fun to have a few other people participate and hear their thoughts;-)…

Notes…

a few weeks ago I gathered up and organized the tax information…

scanned it all and emailed it to my wonderful accountant;-)… she is quite amazing and uses all the newest technology…

a few days ago I received a link to a portal from Platinum Business Services which had my completed tax documents as well as a letter advising I have a refund this year…

I had to print, sign, scan (used the Notes app on my phone for that) and return one document, which they will now efile and eventually I will get a confirmation and see the money in my bank account…

an eTransfer through my credit union, and payment was complete…

it was all done electronically, from my scanning documents, to them doing the work, to the portal where I could see the results, to my downloading and returning signed paperwork, to paying them, to eventually getting money put into my account by the government…

amazing how technology has improved our lives over the years and what a perfect time we are living in… so much we can still do even as we are isolating…

always so happy when the process is done as for many years it took my beloved forever to get this piece of work done…

thanks to the refund, which was because I had extra tax taken off throughout the year I made a donation to Winnipeg Harvest (online) to support those struggling to put food on the table… every little helps…

missed…

big girl pants, colleagues, flowers, hugs, missed, notes, presents, surprise, widow

been away from the office for sixteen days…

today when I returned there were notes and presents at my desk, and hugs from colleagues… nice to feel missed…

shortly after I went into a meeting I was called into another meeting at which point there was singing, flowers and a card… I was surprised as I was thinking that my birthday celebration would be on Monday…

sure is great to be appreciated;-)…

everywhere…

anniversary, big girl pants, everywhere, flowers, lunch bag, notes, seatbelt, widow

Saturday was my work anniversary so over the weekend I prepared notes and organized roses for my colleagues…

here are the flowers as I brought them home from the florist and kept them standing up so they would be in good condition this morning when I set them out for everyone to choose which one they would like… using the seatbelt to keep them upright works perfectly…

the funniest thing was that when I took the picture in the kitchen I noticed the red on the side of the fridge… it was my lunch bag, which has been missing for about a week and was exactly where it should have been, but not one of the places throughout the house, car and office where I searched, lol…

I took a few pictures of the roses in different offices…

lovely to walk around and see flowers everywhere…
