I was suppose to start Nicky on his "renal diet" food, but I just couldn't do it.  Tomorrow is another day.

He is sacked out over the entire lower half of the bed.

Nicky cuddled up with me last night after I signed off, so I guess he forgave me for his long day at the vet's office.

Off to meet our former neighbor, our friend, and also an acquaintance of occasional poster Charles Pogue.

Have a good time, Jane!

Thank you.  We went to our favorite restaurant here and had a delicious dinner.  We went early in order to sit at the bar for awhile and order our excellent drinks while waiting for our friend.  We then had a long relaxing meal at a table.

I think my growling stomach drove Nicky out of the bedroom.

DR Ron asked if anyone is watching THE DURRELLS IN CORFU. I'd planned to, but PBS seems to have taken episode 1 off their website. Honestly, I can't make heads or tails of their website. They've changed it several times and somehow it's never any better.

We watched the first episode last night.   Unfortunately we did not love it like others do.

Jane, do you find that Vancouver has as much to offer as did Ashland, or perhaps Ashland has some favorites and Vancouver others?

Hmmm, how do I compare paradise to where we live now 😉

Driving back to this charming town surrounded by mountains, I wanted to keep going through town and to our beautiful ome where Echo and Sherlock would be waiting for us.

I know when I return to Vancouver I will enjoy the river walks and the freedom to travel the condo provides.  Downtown Vancouver does not have boutique shops that Ashland has or the charm.

I love walking along the river, watching the sailboats, planes, and trains.  I would not enjoy living anywhere else in Vancouver except maybe at Officers Row by Fort Vancouver.

When the Vixter was a little thing, about 3 or so as she sat in my knee and I sang her a lullaby, she put her hand on my mouth and kindly but firmly advised "that's ok Mama, I'll sing to you"

Instead of my driving up north to take him to lunch, he met me down here at the Emerald Queen for lunch.

That is great :)

Not if she was fired, with good cause.

Thank you.  Tomorrow we are meeting my hiking group and just doing Lithia Park sense  it should be raining.  After the hike we will go out for hot chocolate.

We went through the desk of the fired coworker


vixmom - Had she been given time to go through her desk to organize stuff if she wanted?


She wasn't let go because of disorganization,   We had many complaints about her rudeness, she has cost the firm several thousand of dollars through errors, she was constantly texting or talking on her cell phone , she would get up and walk out of the office without saying anything to anyone and be MIA for an hour or more.  She was late 4 days out 5 but out the door moments before the end of the day , she was always "too busy" to assist with my overflow files but was handling 1/5 or less Of caseload I was, and my files kept increasing as clients insisted she be taken off their files


She was warned repeatedly by the boss and she made no adjustments in her behavior....


As I said, Yesterday, I was only surprised it took him so long

Hmm, disorganized, rude, talks on the cell phone, walks out without explanation.......

I think I may be the perfect candidate for that job!!
