amazing day
no, not today, nothing amazing about today, the usual Friday. home from work, hungry and tired. Don't wanna watch tv, or read or think. Don't wanna do housework or phone friends or family. Hmmm. so here I am ....B is busy blowing things up and I am busy typing things down.
I just didn't want to let the opportunity go by to re-capture my yesterday. First of all, I felt wretched. I have been feeling off lately, fighting off sinus and who knows what else. There is a nasty cold going round, felling people at work and school. Bron just got back to school but still has a cough. Anyway, came home from work feeling lousy Tuesday, was sort of okay Wed, thought I was good to go on thu, but got to work with a cracking headache, which followed me all day, in spite of meds. So IN SPITE of having a headache all day, I had the best day ever.
First of all, 2nd storytime of the season, Moose theme, went well. Most kids attending, no problems. After lunch, had a school visit, with some of the best 7 year olds I have ever met. Polite, respectful, took their turns. I just couldn't believe it, they must have an awesome teacher. I guess we got some complaints of noise, well try having 50 gr. 2's and a class from the next door daycare over with no noise......they were really good, must made the usual noise that kids moving about make. They sat for two stories, good as gold, answered questions, asked questions. It was just incredible. I was blown away by it, as was my co-worker. I have never had a tour/visit go that smoothly. Set me up for the day. Then that was followed by a program, where I didn't think anyone was coming, but they actually all came but one. Seemed to go well. Again, such polite kids. Just when I was in a black mood on Wed. from kids p-ing me off, being rude and teasing and loud. The only real bad thing about yesterday was my head. I had supper with a co-worker, who was going to go to a show with me. I remembered (!!!) I had a half price coupon, so we both had a delicious cheap supper (four bucks!) and I brought half of it home, there was so much. I didn't think she liked musicals, but she agreed to come with me and had got the tickets. It was actually a revue, a fund raiser, so the first half was all Webber/Rice tunes, many of which we had never heard of and the second half was excerpts from many many broadway shows. It reminded me of a small town talent show, except that these people were all talented. One was a patron, I would never have recognized her, a voice like an angel. wow. I was impressed. my friend had stopped to buy some 50-50 tickets and I never do, but I had a toonie left from my cheap supper, so I bought some, and then I won! Only $38 but it paid for my night out! My friend even bought me cheesecake. All in all, an awesome evening, a great follow up to a great day.
Just thought I would spout off about it, as certain people say I only talk about the negative! I personally think they ignore me when I am talking positive!
Anyway, got to go, let's see, today I am thankful for orange crunchy leaves and warm yellow sun. Yay fall!
