Happy Heritage Day (canada holiday for my American friends)
Everyone did their own thing today. The daughter got up early and went to ride out at the barn (she's helping train a new horse). Bill went to the gym. The son headed to Iron Mills Mall for a movie with friends.
After lunch, Bill and I went to the cemetery. I thought it would get easier, but it's still very fresh. I'll take the kids this week. We had to wait about 1/2 hour in the car as there is a grave right next to mom. It was packed with about 15 people. They were burning incense. I'm not sure what the ettiquite is, but it just seemed right to wait. It was pretty humourous to see one guy on his cell phone. Talk about poor manners.
Next stop was the Iron Mills Mall. Oh wait, isn't that where the son is. Bill has never been out to that mall yet. The last time he was in a Pro Bass shop was when we were in Dallas and they had the Christmas Tree decorated with dead animals. So we walked around there. There were some interesting characters. There was one guy who was trying to act gangster. He had the low riding jeans (really low) Now I'm not a fan of that look at all. But usually you see some stylish boxes. Not this guy. He had on tighty whities. Not attractive at all. I think it was actually the tighty whities that were making him walk funny, and not the low riding jeans. Could be wrong. Nothing really jumped out at us to buy. I did need a new battery for my pedometer. By the time we left the mall, it was packed and there wasn't a parking space to be found. Some guy actually followed us to our vehicle so he could get the parking spot.
Then we headed home via Stony Trail. That road now goes out farther than Metis Trail. We found that by accident.
The daughter was home when we arrived. Everyone was on their own for supper. Bill headed to the golf course. But of couse he came home after three rounds - why - rain, hail, lightening, thunder, etc, etc. The son and his friends were still at the mall. Thankfully the Dad of the driver called and told them to stay at the mall until the storm cleared up. I like to think that the boys would have thought have that all on their own.
We had a family meeting regarding the week ahead (the son was absent even though most of it was about him) Again we (I mean I) realized it is taking two of them to do all my stuff!!!!!!!
3 more sleeps!!!! til Vegas!!!
BODY: Had to get a new battery for the pedometer. So most of the walking was done at the mall. Did all my stretches again this morning though.
MIND: Louise Hay "The point of power is always in the present moment."
Good night
