#219 Work Week PerfecShawn

I can't over state this enough. This has been a dream week in the office!

Okay, so today wasn't perfect, but it WAS still a good day. And tomorrow is Friday, so I can't really complain.  

Also I got a crap load of reports off my desk today, so yay me!

10 and a half work days until Vacation. It's a little premature to be coasting, but I can certainly say that I'm at the top of the hill and I'm easing off the gas pedal...

#218 Great Day RepetiShawn!

I really don't want to jinx it, but sham-wow! Another awesome day in the office!!!

I mean three awesome workdays. Tell me how often I  say that!  

I say keep on coming  I've got 12 more work days til vacation so I'm hoping this pattern keeps on coming on!

#217 Tuesday Pitch PerfecShawn

I'll tell you what, I'm gonna ride this awesome week as long as it'll let me! Another AWESOME day!

♪♫ I've got joy, joy, joy, joy, down at my desk.
Where?
Down at my desk. 

Where?

Down at my desk.

I've got joy, joy, joy, joy, down at my desk.
Down at my desk to stay... (I hope) ♫♪

Praise!

#216 Monday PerfecShawn

As God is my witness, today was the best Monday (at the office) EVER!

I said on more than one occasion today that, "I could take a Month of Mondays like today",  And that's the gospel truth.

And it wasn't just because Typhoid Mary was not there. 

And it wasn't just because it was the Civic Holiday in Ontario and the phones were a little less buty.

Okay it was BOTH of those things...   but also the "boss" wasn't a total jackass.

Today, was a good day.

#215 Premature Floral DepleShawn

Autumn has come early to our balcony.

Unfortunately because of construction and repairs to the Condo's roof and the balconies, we had to remove everything from the balcony today. So my beautiful flowers that have been a source of beauty and pride for the past 11 weeks has come to a premature ending.

This year, it is not the cooler/frosty conditions of our northern Autumn to dictate the hibernation and cleaning out of our urban garden oasis; it is construction workers.

But I could not say good-bye to all the flowers. I managed to save our Dragon's Wing Impatiens.  It's just simply far to lush and beautiful to have send to the curb. So it shall remain on our kitchen island for the following week or so until the roofers have gone and the balconies have been removed and replaced by new construction. Then he will be the center of focus and beauty on our new deck.

Until then I shall mourn and remember our summer Eden.

#214 End of the CompetiShawn

As of 10:30 PM tonight, Santiago will be the happiest doggie in Montreal. Why? Because the last night of the Fireworks Competition is tonight.  

30 last minutes of big bangs and shock waves. It seems the smaller the dog the worse it is for them. 

I'm hoping that as with previous years he continues to manage the night a little better than the week before. He does improve weekly in general, but then the last night always seems to be over the top,.

Fingers crossed, it's over soon.

#213 CelbraShawn

It's here.

Friday!

More importantly, I did it!

.. or rather I didn't do it.

I didn't explode!  

I made it through the day and now I don't have to deal with Typhoid Mary for the next two weeks!

To be honest it was very touch an go... I impressed myself!

Yay me!
