The Queen of Hamilton Gets to Know the Local Gentry

It’s been a busy time lately sorting through years of storage accumulated, most of which needs shredding or dumping or giving away.  I thought when I started rising earlier in the mornings to get to the walking track I would have hours and hours extra a day to accomplish tasks and read and write blogs and books and all things wonderful.

I left for Hamilton this morning to visit and see how renovations on my new abode were coming.  Getting out of the car I notice the front driver’s tire was flat.  Very flat.  So for the first time ever I had a chance to use my roadside service.  The fellow arrived within 5 minutes; he came, he saw, he changed my tire and diagnosed my air valve failure and directed me to the nearest Canadian Tire.  

So here I sit, a lovely and very welcome breeze blowing as I wait.  The service itself will apparently not take long however there appears to be quite a long waiting line before my Fusion gets admitted to a bay.

I’ve been looking for time to catch upon my blogs and comments and thankfully the time is now!!

As soon as I arrived G2 proudly told me he is finished with diapers and he pees and poops in the toilet!  Then he proudly  took me into the bathroom to demonstrate but did not have to really go. He then let me know that when he does number 2 he gets a sucker.

G1 turns 8 next Saturday and his passion right now is collecting Angry Bird stuffies.  Seems he has the birds and now is completing his pig collection!
Now I am off to read and comment!  When you get lemons……

It's been an interesting time adjusting to 'retirement' after a long career in nursing. Forty odd years actually and the challenge has been to try and figure out who I am. It seems that for the largest part of my life I have defined myself as a nurse. More so than a mother, wife etc - you know all those tags we hang on ourselves and for what reason? I am still learning, still searching, and still evolving I guess. At first it all seemed a little confusing, trying to sort out the what and the who and the like. Now it has become a great adventure. I have so many wonderful models that I have met here on Wordpress. It is amazing how close you can feel to those who brave the pages each day or week or month to share a little of themselves.

    OK, I think we have a bit of language barrier stuff going on here lol!! I can’t translate this into anything I understand without my eyebrows shooting through my hairline!! Isn’t language fun?!

  3. Good for you and your new abode… Do update us when all is ready. Best wishes. :-)

  4. I’m excited about your new abode….hopefully we will get to hear adjusting to new abode stories. Now if anyone else but G1 or G2 was telling you about peeing and pooping in the toilet wouldn’t it kind of ruin our days? :) Hope the tire is fixed and you were on your way to a happier day!

    • Tire was fixed and yes the day was wonderful! I am getting a little stressed thinking about getting the moving done…it was just yesterday I had weeks and weeks. I am trying to organize family photos and they are taking way too much time but I just cannot rush through them. Yikes!

  5. Glad you had time to come read and comment on my blog article today :-)
    I like your blog.

I love to hear your thoughts on this!
