It was Mother's Day last weekend and I really didn't have much to say about it. Caiti did send me a text message first thing in the morning as she was at work and she did call in the evening when she got home but she was so tired after having worked like 40 hours in 3 days (she's really prepping up for the true shift work once she gets her RN!) It was a lovely gift to have her sounding so thrilled about her work with her "patients" and because it was Mother's week pretty much there were lots of special teas. Working on Mother's Day was wonderful because she saw the flowers and the love that families brought to visit their mums and grammas and even great-grammas. She was painting nails and picking pretty outfits and doing hair in helping them get ready for their outings and their teas...she said it was very satisfying work that day.
We were going to go for brunch but we bailed...it was too pricey. Chrissy and I went shopping at the mall and treated ourselves to a few things...I needed shoes for walking so we got a pair and also a pair of work sandals. It was nice to escape like that.
This week was so busy at work with the packing up and the getting ready for the renovations to begin. It was also fun because I went out for lunch twice with Jill and Sharon...once for Pho and today we went to the John B and even had a drink too and then we went back to work...oh well...it was just a light little drink!!!
So now...its the long weekend...I have not been feeling that great so looking forward to some quiet time and maybe some social time with friends any are around and up to doing something.
Last Friday we went to dinner with Helga and Roy, Bill and Joanne for mexican at carlos' and we had such fun and back to Helga's for several glasses of yummy wine...it was really nice having a social evening for a change instead of stuck in front of the TV!!!
Helga got the job at Glenpine so that is great for her. She was also subbing for Jovan at Wings and it was just like old times back at the gym!!!
So...here's to Queen Victoria's birthday weekend!!!
