Day 2 of October

MEMORY: On this day, 11 years ago - so that would be 2000, Bill, Patrick and Amanda (a friend of Patricks) and I attended a Robert Munch concert at the Jack Singer. It was a great show. That means Patrick would have been 8 years old.
As you can tell, October hasn't been a great month for blogging. This past week has been a busy one. Tuesday night I took my sister to a Stage West production; actually it was one of their concert series ' Women of Soul" It was three ladies; - one was the lead singer and two back up singers. Well they did a Diana Ross and Supreme imitation (outfits and all); a Donna Summer imiation and lastly a Tina Turner imitation. The singing was exceptional, but I think the group needs to tweek their stage presence a little more. Wednesday I spent the day with Miss Caylee; or as she is officially known now "Princess Caylee!" I was ready for a morning nap; but Caylee kept me awake until the afternoon. We painted; made crafts; drank tea; did stickers; played on the computer - and that was all before noon. After lunch, we both went down for a nap. At 3:00 we headed outside to blow some bubbles. We took a little walk and Princess Caylee decided we should go to the park. Alisa had left me a map, but it was in the house, so I asked Caylee if she knew the way and low and behold she did. Did I mention, she's not three yet?
So after the park, back to the house; more tea, more books and more computer. It was a fun, but busy day. I think I am getting to old for the interacting babysitting. Needless to say, I was in bed by 9:00 pm on Wednesday.
Today was spent catching up on errands. Had to run Mom to the Dr.s to get a quick prescription renewal. When we showed up at the office, they didn't have us down for an appointment. Great - before I could get too wound up - they informed me that the appointment was for next Friday (that explains why I couldn't find it on my calendar) Luckily the Dr. had an opening an hour later, so we headed downstairs to the mall for a coffee and a quick shop. Today was the first day for the new Iphone 4S. You should have seen all the people lined up to get into the Apple store - there must have been over 200 people. I think the cinnamon store was probably making a profit today, because the line went right past them.
Well Bill is off to the Wine and Food Festival tonight - maybe he'll make some contacts and find job. There isn't much left to do around the house. Gardens are done; weeding is done; patio furniture put away. I might have to lend him out, just to keep my sanity.
Enjoy the weekend.
