I Hate Mondays!

I still hate Mondays. I thought I would get over it but I haven't. It is a truly miserable way to spend 1/7 of your life. I made a point of sleeping in every Monday while not working in Mexico. It was divine! But I'm having a difficult time remembering that feeling. This morning I had to get up extra early to take my friend Winne to the train station. We hailed a taxi which was a bit of a treat for me on the way to work. I usually walk or take the bus.

So Remembrance Day was a big success, nation-wide. Did anyone watch the CBC's coverage on Saturday morning? They started their broadcast with excerpts from the eulogies of the soldiers recently lost in Afghanistan. Now that was gut wrenching to watch ... fathers, wives, sisters, brothers, friends ... all talking about these extraordinary people who had given their lives in the line of duty. I had to turn it off because I was getting too emotional.

My weekend was JAMpacked with fun. I saw family and friends. I shopped at Canadian Tire and finally got my beautiful, red tantric dishes. That's what they're called! I'm not lying -- Red Tantric Dinnerware. I am expecting big things from these dishes. LOL BTW, I did have a lunch date last week courtesy of Lavalife. He was very nice and we had a pleasant hour together over a lovely meal. Not sure if we're "made" for each other but it was a good experience none-the-less. *grin*

My grammar class is drawing to a close. I think only have four weeks left before my final exam. So far, I'm averaging over 80% on my two other tests and I expect to receive 10/10 for participation. Those who know me well know that I would never be able to sit anywhere and keep my mouth shut for very long. Ha! I got my eyes tested last week as well. Unfortunately, they did not score very high so I need to get glasses. The good news is: NO bifocals (yet).

That's all that's happening with me. What's new with you?
