An Encore Career

Doesn't today's wordage crack you up? I applied and was accepted for a job -with James and Suzanne's company - JumpCharge Marketing, so this will be my 'encore career'. Here's Suze and I in Vancouver where I signed up my first client for the sms texting program.

Won the 99th Grey Cup

We had a great get together at Liz' for the game. It was very exciting and we had lots of fun.

A Very Sad Moment in Life.

We lost our very dear cousin Laura yesterday from Melonoma. She was a special gem in our lives, always filled with joy. As kids we played ping pong and had Easter egg hunts out in Haney. As adults, we enjoyed her, husband Dave and her 2 wonderful daughters, husbands and grandbabies. She will forever be remembered with love.

Visit With Friends

We had a great visit with Irv and Gini and Chuck's son Shane yesterday.

Survived our First Snowstorm

I took my friend Donna shopping yesterday, then picked up Ron and was so excited when it started to snow. This is our first snowfall since 2004. We went to the condo for a visit with Joyce, then had pizza and played Phase 10. The snow was so pretty coming down, all 1 1/2" and we found that our tires were just fine. We'd had trouble in the snow years ago when we found that the tires on that car were 'racing slicks' and needed to be changed.

My New Job

I have now become Suzanne's personal shopper. We need new activities being here for the winter after going down south for the past 6 years. We were going to Bellingham to shop a while back and asked Suzanne if we could pick up anything for her. Well, she came back with a list of sales which were half the price of what they are in Gibsons. She had checked all the ads and now I have done the same and find many items at great sale prices here without the American dollar exchange. Ron and I now have shopped at the weekly sales, then end up at Walmart which matches anybody's sale price. If it is raining, we walk in the underground parking lot which is massive. Even saw a lady walking her dog. Then Ron gets his seniors coffer while I shop. So it seems if we have nothing else to do, we've become Walmart groupies with all the other old folk.

Sun at the Beach

We often go down to the beach for our walk. It was very windy one day when the sun was setting. There were 'nearly surfable' waves behind the seagull when we faced south, but dark clouds looking west into the sun which was about to set. There is such a contrast you wouldn't believe these pictures were taken at the same time, about 4:20p.m.
