Blog 4 of November

It's Sunday and the weather has warmed up considerably from the past week.  It was a crazy, busy past week.  Mostly work related.  Between the playschools, home visits, and card work, the dust bunnies are starting to hang out in my house again.
  Bill and I visited the Spruce Meadows Christmas market yesterday.  It was such a warm day, and the atmosphere was as Christmasy as it could get.  And being that it was Spruce Meadows, Santa's reindeer were also there.  It was cute to see the kids getting their pictures taken with the reindeer.   Ashley was working at the Market (ticket taker) so we had a quick visit but couldn't bother her for too long as the line up for continuous to get in.  We left the Market at 5:00 and people were still arriving as we left.
  After the Market, Bill and I went out for dinner at the Cattle Baron.  I was craving me some filet mignon and I wasn't disappointed.  It's been a long time since I had a nice steak.
  Ashley came over this morning for a short visit.  (she was in the neighborhood).  After she left, I headed to work on my cards and then over to Market Mall to pick up a couple of things.  I'm proud to say I have finished Christmas shopping........for my mom.  I also picked up a few items so I can say I have officially started my Christmas shopping.    I also checked in at a couple of jewelry stores.  A couple of weeks ago, my engagement ring broke.  The gold was getting thin (it is over 30 years old) and the back finally broke.  I am going to take my ring and band and a couple of small pieces and have the gold melted and a new ring made.  I just need to find a design I am really happy with.
  Well, the Grey Cup is on the TV, Bill is in his office and Maya is snoring at my feet in my office.  The house is sure a lot quieter now.  What better time than to get my PJ's on and enjoy a nice cup of tea (or a different beverage of choice)
  Goodbye Sunday, hello Monday.
