I had a nice lunch with my friend at Las Margaritas in Kitsilano. 🌮

Then he drove me to his place in Burnaby. He lives next to Central Park so we went for a walk. Saw goslings. 🐤

Now on the SkyTrain heading home.

Another soul nourishing day.

Okay, thank you to the kind man on the bus who told me I should be a model. My response to him was loud laughter. 😂

Thank you cell tower reception for not cutting me off!

I was on hold for work before I left the office and decided to leave while still on hold since they said I was next in line.

Three elevators, a SkyTrain, the SeaBus, and a bus ride later and they finally answered and I was able to make changes for my boss while on the bus.

Dementia is heartbreaking.

But on Thursday night, I was helping my mom get ready for bed.

I hugged and kissed her good night once she was in bed. We said we loved each other.

Then she said something that caught me in the feels. She said that I was the best thing that ever happened to her - “my girl” 🥰

I told her I wasn’t expecting that, clutched my heart and told her that I loved her. Many hugs followed.

🥹

I know that one day she may not know me.

I’m going to print this pic and frame it for my mom and for myself.

I’ve been wanting a good pic of us to frame.

Landed at YVR and am now on the train heading home.

I’m so grateful that I’m no longer anxious taking off and landing. Just inner peace and calm. Still surprised this is my new normal.

I am really enjoying acceptance.

Took my mom out to lunch before I had to leave for the airport.

Thanks to the kind waitress at the pub we went to for lunch for offering to take a pic of us.

#Kelowna #GratefulBee #Family

Just came from dinner with my mom and her friends at the retirement home. They have a very good selection and gluten-free options; I really enjoyed everything even though dinner started at 4:30 PM. Another resident’s daughter joined us as well and it was an enjoyable experience with the 6 of us.

Happy to be able to experience what it’s like for my mom living here.

#GratefulBee #Kelowna

Spent the morning hanging out with my mom and some female residents of her retirement home. Lots of nice women. Glad my mom has good people around her.

Someone asked if I was her granddaughter and was surprised when I said I was her daughter. She asked what my secret was and I said moisturizer and staying out of the sun.

Took Mom to get some groceries and now she’s catching up on Coronation Street.

#GratefulBee #Kelowna

Landed in Kelowna. That was a bumpy descent.

So apparently I’m no longer an anxious person during takeoff and landing. Thank you, acceptance!

#GratefulBee #Acceptance

Okay, boarded the plane.

I initially could not fit my carryon in the overhead bin and turned bright red in embarrassment as I held up everyone behind me.

I brought my luggage back down and asked for help on the second try and it magically slid in the bin. Thanks to the male passengers behind me who offered to help then congratulated me.

I was pleasantly surprised to see a large bouquet of flowers at my desk when I returned from lunch today. I wondered why since I was not aware it was Admin Professionals Day. I am grateful to be appreciated by my team.

I then told her about Cates Park
And Lighthouse Park
At opposite ends
Of the North Shore.
Strangers bonding
Over a shared love
Of nature and trees.
Glimmers of light
Adding to our day.

Yesterday I had a lovely
Interaction with
A lady on the bus.
She is visiting from Germany
And was returning from
A day spent in a forest.
We bonded over our
Love of trees.
She asked for
A recommendation
For a place to visit.
I first mentioned Lynn Canyon
And she said that’s
Where she spent the day
And it was wonderful.

Then I met a retired work friend for lunch in Coquitlam with her sister and another work friend.

After lunch, I went for a walk at Lafarge lake with my work friend. I’d never been there before. So many flowers and trees and dogs and ducks.

I’ve had a soul nourishing day. I really needed that.

I started my morning with art therapy. We were asked to draw our stress creature. Then we were told to draw our best self fighting stress.

My best self was a purple bee. 🐝

Just picked up a few items from the grocery store on my way home. As the cashier scanned some frozen meals, she said:

“One’s free just because”

😊

I thanked her for the generosity and said I appreciated it since times are tough as everything is getting more and more expensive.

She said she’s 70 and wished she didn’t have to work. I said I’ll likely be in the same boat.
