Surgery Day Eve Musings


After a thorough review of the Shoe Bible I decided to start Surgery Eve off with these pretty blue and silver shoes.  Comfortable and oh so stylish.


The afternoon shoes are light pink with just a touch of snake.  Also oh so comfortable.


And should I get feeling sad that my shoe choices are going to be so limited for a while, I may just put these beauties on for part of the day.  Always good to have a back up plan.  I had picked box 56 to wear today but I couldn't find it on the shoe shelves this morning.  I can't believe I misfiled them.  Tonight's first order of business is to locate them and put them in their proper place.  Poor lost shoes.


Have you heard that Kevin O'Leary is thinking of running for the Conservative leadership?  Hard not to hear about it I suppose.  Well, while doing spring (because it really could be spring) cleaning I came across this picture from a while ago.  I wonder if he ever got to be Prime Minister if he would remember me.  Probably not because I was well behaved...only because they made me of course.


Jonathan and I went for a walk in the spring-like weather yesterday to have Vietnamese Pho soup.  He enjoyed his first experience although he wasn't a fan of the noodle-looking fuzzy things that may have been tripe but I really don't know.  He was just glad that they sunk to the bottom and he didn't have to look at them too much.

Tonight a friend is picking up a bookshelf worth of books and those of you who know me know that this is such a big event for me.  I love books and hate to give them up but really, do I need to keep them all? Isn't it better to share the book love?   Maybe this will earn me a spot in book heaven.

This is my version of heaven.  It just needs some comfy chairs.

Charlie Brown: I guess you were right, Linus. I shouldn't have picked this little tree.

Oh but Charlie Brown you picked a fantastic tree and now my office looks so Christmas-y.  I could use a pair of gold sparkly shoes just like that one too. My day is going to be interesting I'm sure.  I got up late and, thinking I had an eye doctor's appointment today, drove in and was quite thrilled that I was only 15 minutes late getting in.  Turns out that the appointment is next Monday.  Now I get to pay $20 for parking for no reason.  Sigh... I got on the elevator with a woman this morning who had a Guitar Hero box and chocolates and cookies.  I told her that this looked like the best way to start a week and she agreed.  I wonder if I could convince the powers to be here that we should also have a "band day".  I could totally be a back up singer. After a fabulous wearing shorts bike-run yesterday with Jonathan, I was making dinner and went to open the oven door to check on the delicious chicken that was cooking and the door handle came half way off.  I he

Cows downtown today? I hope so.

    There is a demonstration happening downtown today by the Dairy Farmers of Ontario.   I hope that they bring cows.   That would be amazing to watch.   I’m not sure what their issue is but I try to do my part by eating yogurt.   I apologize for not drinking as much milk anymore but I have switched to almond milk.   The last week has been filled with wonders, smells, sounds and, most importantly, new shoes.   My feet were very cold last week (but certainly not this week) because they are encased in running shoes that had ventilation in the toe so I went out and got a sweet pair of Converse high tops which keep my feet toasty warm right up to my ankles.   The problem I found though is that they are not good in the rain.   While it was not raining on my ride home yesterday I did get wet and the shoes are very slippery on the peddles.   I was stuck behind two guys for far too long (mostly because I forgot to take my new route so I can avoid the many, many ruts along the

Do birds yawn?

Image
That is my question of the day.  I saw a seagull standing on the Rideau Canal wall this morning and it looked like he was yawning.  Now I'm curious. I forgot to show you the shoes I wore yesterday.  It was a fabulous shoe day.  After an initial crack (and even I was a tad worried for a moment) my foot settled into the shoe and was quite happy for the entire day.  We won't discuss how it felt last night....that's a secret between me and my Advil. Like the shoes say "my feet looked fabulous". Today's shoes are a favourite from our last Pointe Clair shopping adventure. You just have to love living in Canada.  The weather was so different this morning than it was yesterday.  Yesterday I was sweating 15 minutes into my ride to work and this morning it felt like there were icicles on my fingers.  Lovely for biking though.  So many pretty sights to see this morning as well.  Seeing the hot air balloon in the sunrise was so pretty as long as you don&#
