Holy!! I haven't opened Blogger in 5 months. I have had good intentions but life got in the way here.

The week after I last blogged I lost my job. Came out of the blue but in hindsight they did me a favor as I don't have to put up with the office drama anymore. Good riddance. There was some trouble getting my Record of Employment from them but the government stepped in on my behalf and put pressure on them to supply the document so I could get Unemployment Insurance. That process took four months but at least now I can pay my bills.

In December I got hit with a nasty flu. That germ-fest lasted the entire month and just when I was starting to feel a bit better I got hit with a nasty cold. After a month, I went to the doctor and got some meds as the germs had morphed into a chest infection and sinus infection. I love that for me. LOL. Its only been the last two weeks that I have been feeling human.

I have been busy with mammogram appointments recently. They have found something so they are sending me for a biopsy in April to rule out anything scary. When they first called me I had a full on panic attack just out of fear I think. I'm more rational about it now but it was sure a shocker to get that call. Hubby is taking me to the appointment so I will have a calm head and some support. Wish me luck!

Last weekend me and a friend got out and went to the Royal Botanical Gardens to see the Wizard in Bloom exhibit. 

It was a cold and windy day but it was so nice to be inside enjoying all the color and whimsy. After the RBD, we went across the street to have a footlong hotdog at one of the cities landmarks, Easterbrooks. I don't know what I expected but I wasn't expecting a wee trailer. LOL. For dessert we headed up the mountain to grab some Krispy Kreme donuts. Those did not last long at all. All in all it was a fun day.

This weekend we are staying home and just trying to catch up on stuff we've been putting off for whatever reason.

Wishing everyone a lovely week!!
