I flew over two charity golf tournaments over the last couple of days. The first one was for the MS Society, down in Port Colborne. I wasn’t sure if I was going to be able to fly, due to the hazy conditions and low clouds. Fortunately, the sky was perfectly clear over the golf course:
The conditions were much more clear today, but even hotter. This one was in Fonthill by my old high school. The charity was for the Wise Guys:
It was actually a relief to land as the heat was becoming unbearable. I think I lost about seven pounds in water weight!
This morning really didn’t start off too good. I got ready for work and went to grab my purse on the way out the door, only to find it wasn’t there. We were out at a restaurant the night before, but I was sure I had it with me on the drive home. I was really mad at myself for being so careless, assuming I left it in the car. You can imagine my shock when I walked down to the car, only to see my purse wasn’t there. OK, now I was about to freak out. I ran back up to the apartment and looked everywhere. I then hysterically called Chuck and said my purse is gone. He said he would drive over to the restaurant and see if anyone was there to let him in. It was doubtful since it was so early in the morning. In the meantime, I frantically ran around the apartment, looking in every nook and cranny. I then decided to share my grief with my mother – probably not the kindest thing to do since there was nothing she could do to help me. By the time Chuck arrived at the apartment, I was leaning over the sink in the bathroom, gagging up my stomach. He went to our other apartment across the hall, only to find my purse on the chair. When he walked in with it, I opened my arms and ran toward him, grabbing my purse and hugging it to death. I think I kissed it a few times too. What a relief! I stupidly had my passport and Nexus card in my purse. So if it was gone, we wouldn’t be able to go to Oshkosh, WI next week. I would have ruined everything! After I calmed down a bit, I remembered that I as soon as I got home last night, I grabbed the key for the other apartment so I could go over and water my plants. Yes, I took my purse with me. Chuck and my mother found it highly amusing! Fortunately, I feel the same way – it just took me a little longer to get to that stage.
The little kitties are enjoying our heat wave. Check out these shots of little Mya and Boo all snuggled together:
Today’s symptoms: A little more tired than usual due to the stress of my emotional break-down this morning. I have a fairly bad headache, but I have a feeling the weather is playing a big role in it. I’m looking forward to sleeping well tonight.
