NOV 1 2014, Saturday; Days off
We woke to blue sky and sunshine but a cold 6*C! Last evening, we met Rochelle and Kevin at
ORIGINAL JOE where Hayley and Vanessa work and had a couple drinks and appies. Doreen (Rochelle’s mom) and Gord also joined
us and we all had a great evening. I
posted pictures on Facebook and Picasa Web and Val did laundry in the morning. In the afternoon, we went to the Mall and
ended up at the Pub for appies and a couple beers while we watched the Lions
getting a beating, we left at half time.
In the evening we went to the movie theatre for the first time in a long
time to see “FURY”. It was worth
it! Came home, had a nightcap then to
bed
NOV 2, Sunday;
We turned all clocks and watches one hour back this morning! We spent the morning catching up to some of
our recording on the PVR. Jeffrey came
over to do his laundry and we had a nice visit but he didn’t want to stay for
dinner and left around 5 pm. We got a
call earlier Rochelle that there would be a “get-together” this evening at
“Friendly Mike” restaurant. We attended
and celebrated Graeme and Courtenay soon to be wedding. There were 17 people in attendance including
all the grand-parents on Graeme’s family side.
That went on for a couple hours and was fun. We said goodbye to everyone and wished them
all a wonderful trip filled with lots of fun.
NOV 3, Monday; to work
I went back to work this morning and was given my marching
orders by Kevin for the balance of the week.
I am working with Joe and we are the only two here until Thursday as Todd
and Rob are in Babine Lake up north on a job.
Anyway, after some disoriented organizing, Joe and I finally got to work
at the Post Office project in Abbotsford.
When we got back to the shop, everyone was gone.
Val did more job searching and kept herself busy. It was a very rainy day and when I got home,
I had to put everything in the drier.
NOV 4, Tuesday; Work and wine
Joe and I headed back to Abbotsford to do more capping
on the windows. Joe wasn’t feeling good
so we headed back to the shop by 2 pm. I
continued working by cleaning the back of the Cube Van and loaded some windows
that have to be delivered tomorrow. I
was home by 3:30 pm.
Val was busy bottling our wine and bringing that
home. We had left over for dinner then a
relaxing evening. It was cloudy in the
morning and sunny breaks in the afternoon.
NOV 5, Wednesday;
This was a fairly decent day weather-wise! We loaded the balance of the windows then Joe
had to go for blood test so I went to the customer house and delivered his
window. Thank goodness there were a
couple guys there to help. I returned to
the shop where I picked up Joe who had returned and went to wash the delivery
truck which got back for Babine Lake last night; it was absolutely filthy from
mud and road grids. After that job, we
picked up doors and delivered them to a customer in Aldergrove. The rest of the day was spent at the Post
Office. I was home by 4:15 pm! A quiet
evening at home than to bed.
NOV 6, Thursday; Transport day
I spent most of the morning doing pick-up and
deliveries then went to Abbotsford to join the crew and assist them. I did more “beauty capping” which is the
final stage in the window face. Driving
home, we hit a freak wind and rain storm that lasted about 1o minutes before
quitting. Another quiet evening at home
and to bed early
NOV 7, Friday; TGIF
A nice day with the sun shining through in the
afternoon. I had a delivery to make in
Chehalis in Agassiz then back to Abbotsford but first, I had to pick up some
stores in Surrey and Langley. It was
another nice day. In the evening, we met
Cheryl and her husband Shawn at the local BEST WESTERN Hotel for a fund
raising. We had a very nice reunion and
visit and were home by 10 pm.
