Our Location today is Tecumseh, Ontario, Canada.
Kathy was the one
who had a difficult time sleeping last night. She even spent time on the
computer trying to tire herself out before she was finally able to fall back to
sleep. Myself, I slept so soundly that when 7:00 this morning arrived I was
wide awake already sitting at my computer doing my morning reading. It was only
natural that Kathy would sleep in to make up for the sleep that she lost
through the night. As the clock neared 9:00 I started getting breakfast ready
and just the sound of the kettle in the kitchen snapping off was enough to wake
Kathy in the bedroom.
After breakfast Kathy
headed to the computers while I got cleaned up before we headed out on the
first of our errands. Our first stop was Walmart
where we had our new Passport Photos taken. The photo shop
was having a special and since we’d had our Passport Photos taken we
were able to have a free photo session and be eligible for a free photograph.
Like our friend George always says “Free is good!”
Our next stop was
downtown Windsor where amazingly we had no problem finding a parking spot. Our destination
was the Passport Canada Office to
renew our Passports which expire in January. Imagine how dumbfounded we
felt when we got to the office to find it closed for the Federal Holiday of Remembrance
Day. Since being retired we very seldom think of this day as a holiday. To us
today is special day with great meaning that we thank those who fought so we
could have Freedom yes, but as a holiday no. You look around and you see most
of the retail outlets open and you lose track that to some this is an actual
holiday. On our way back home we stopped at the Credit
Union and found it closed as well just like all the nearby banks.
At the apartment Kathy
needed to have a Snap to make up for the sleep that she lost last night.
I worked on the computer making certain that all the links we have listed on
our sidebar would properly function. The reason behind this process is to
eliminate the Bad Request 400 Error to the blog. This error is a
possible incorrect URL. By the end of the day there are eight less links
on our sidebar but we still can’t post any pictures on our blog.
After supper we
headed out to Amherstburg for our weekly visit with our son Kevin and daughter-in-law Melissa. We had a great time talking about a
number of things from the boys schooling to an Orthodontist appointment for
Matthew. Before we left to come home I borrowed the cutoff saw and masonry blade
from Kevin so that I’ll be able to complete the landscape job for our daughter
Karen.
Hopefully we’ll both
sleep well tomorrow and we’ll accomplish what we couldn’t get done today. Thanks
for following along and feel free to leave a comment. Be Safe and Enjoy!
It’s about time.

ReplyDeleteYesterday was Veteran's Day here in the US. Special days for both our countries to honor those who fought and gave their all.
