January 10th 2020

More divorce happens in the month of January than in any other month in United Kingdom.

Is that because the credit card bills
From Christmas arrive then??????

Ok! Today sucked.
Like on a big lemon sucked.
I woke up more tired 
Than when I went to bed!
Up and going anyway 
Because I had a lot of little jobs
That were time consuming.

By 1pm I could not stay up.
Back to bed for a nap,
Woke up and was starving.
Not feeling fantastic but better.

Loaded up the van to drop off
All the crop equipment and food,
And I sorted the raffle items
Before they were back for the second load.

Reloaded,
Waited for a delivery
And we were off for last minute items
And fresh groceries.

We tried to have a bite to eat at Harveys
But after waiting 10 minutes
And no one was moving
We decided to leave... we asked a man
Who just got his burger how long
It had taken... 45 minutes.
The burgers aren't THAT good!
We went to A&W and were greeted, 
Served and ate in less time!

At this point I should have 
Recognized the signs
But alas, I did not.
A quick onset crohn's attack.
A bit of hassle and a pain med
And we moved on.

We finished the groceries
And headed for hall to set up.
After much debate...
We figured out a layout we liked
And went to work on jobs
Around the place.

We are getting better at reading
What the other is saying
-which is 90% of the time 
What the other is thinking anyway-
And just started "doing" .
The kitchen is Cloroxed and unpacked,
Tables set up and numbered,
Photo studio swept up,
Coffee set up,
Even the stock room is well organized!

Tomorrow morning
It's all small jobs.
Hang signs, pack some gift baskets,
Arrange raffle items,
Organize the candy store
And set up for lunch.

So much work today
For an easier tomorrow.
I am sitting right now,
But heading for the shower
And bed very soon.

Bored this weekend?
Stop by the Joe Thornton Arena
For a cookie and help raise funds 
For our local cat shelter.

Good night from John Street
