It's about time.

Many of you can relate to Working long hours at your career. Raising your families. Buying a home and paying all the bills related to being homeowners and parents. We're now retired and don't need all that work and expense. Now "It's about time" and what we do to follow our dreams.

Windy, Early Celebration and Canadian Milestone

 Our Location today is at Windsor, Ontario.

Click on the pictures to enlarge.

Kathy took an Extra Strength Tylenol before going to bed last night for the Pain and Swelling in her arm from the Vaccine. It wasn’t as intense when she woke this morning but it was still noticeable.

With this latest Provincial Lock-Down there were no new job postings this morning but there were plenty of new Blog postings on our Sidebar that would take me the better part of the day to read. Like I’ve said many times it may not happen the same day but I will eventually read them all and Comment when I have something to contribute.

We had Chicken and Rice Soup for lunch along with Orange Slices, Shortbread Cookies along with a Vanilla Pudding Cup with a dab of Leftover Strawberry Jam for added flavouring.

I was able to Apply for a Job this afternoon along with making an appointment to get my first Vaccine next week. We finished a few other things on the Computers before heading out the door just before 4:00.

Check the Wind.

Even though the Sun was shining brightly this afternoon the wind was also gusting as high as 37 MPH (60 KLH). The outside temperature was decent but the Wind Gusts being funnelled between the buildings made it feel Sub-Zero making us both feel chilled. As soon as we were in the Car we needed to open our Coats so as to not overheat.

We arrived at our daughter Karen’s house in Tecumseh within Fifteen Minutes to celebrate Easter as a Family early. This gathering of family had been planned long before the announcement of the Lock-Down. Since we only go out for necessities, Karen is Working from Home, Greg and Kylla are both on Lay-Off due to the Electronic Chip Shortage we all felt Safe together. Kylla is still going to school and soon will be working in the Hospitals to finish becoming a Registered Nurse so she has been fully Vaccinated for sometime. Sanford could not get enough of us as soon as we walked in the door he started bringing his newest Toys to show us. Karen and Greg were busy cooking the last of the meal.

Tyler and his girlfriend Jess soon arrived with their nine month old puppy Nova. Even though it’s been nearly Three Months since we last saw her she instantly came up to us for some loving.

The meal was Spiral Sliced Ham, Scalloped Potatoes, Carrots, Cauliflower/Broccoli Salad, Green Beans, Dressing and Dinner Rolls. Even though a single plate was enough I took another scoop of the Cauliflower/Broccoli Salad. It was that good.

As soon as Karen served the Coffee and Tea she then brought out a Homemade Carrot Cake with Cream Cheese Icing. That put dinner over the top. We stayed and visited a while longer before getting Hugs and saying our Good-Byes.

Did you say Treats?

At the Apartment we did watch a Hallmark Movie before the 11 o’clock Local News came on. The first thing they reported was that after over a year Canada had reached One Million Confirmed Coronavirus Cases today. We are still doing better then many other countries but due to the problems we are having to get Vaccines the Federal and Provincial Governments are highly concerned. The Windsor/Essex Region reported another 100 New Cases over the last Two Day period.

Today's High.

With calmer Winds and warmer Temperatures we’ll find something to do tomorrow.

More Treats.

Kathy and I would like to wish all our Family, Friends, Followers and Readers a very Safe and Happy Easter.
