It was a full day of hauling and cleaning, with the goal being to make the place sale ready ASAP. I was rewarded with a Blue Boy, a foot rest for my patio, and a good metal spatula. \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n<p>We got home feeling rather knackered, so we put together a quick dinner then settled down with Ken to watch a few movies. Their new dog, Roxy, and I bonded and spent some time cuddling. She&#8217;s a sweet but neurotic\/skittish girl.<\/p>\n<p>I wound up accepting quite a bit of work for the week (why can&#8217;t it pour like this at times when I&#8217;m at home twiddling my thumbs?), so I started on that this morning because Donna was going to church in the morning and Ken was having a down day since he has a cold. I put in about three hours then quit since Donna is working the next couple of days and we wanted to spend more time together.<\/p>\n<p>We lounged around for the rest of the afternoon, then I cobbled together dinner with the meagre offerings in the pantry and some leftovers. Ken is going grocery shopping tomorrow. \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m hoping to put in a full day tomorrow and get the project done so I can finish preparing the seminar on Tuesday and also get the truck ready. I&#8217;m not really in any hurry to leave Wednesday, so it&#8217;s okay if some prep leaks over from Tuesday. I just want to get some mileage under me so I don&#8217;t get to Kelowna too late on Thursday.<\/p>\n<p>Visiting Donna and Ken is just like being at home, except there&#8217;s dogs and a gentleman makes my morning toast and coffee. \ud83d\ude42 I look forward to a time when I will be set up to reciprocate their warm hospitality.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It&#8217;s been a lovely weekend with Ken and Donna!
