I met up with my parents and my sister. I gave my sister a hair towel like the one I have, I think she appreciated it. I gave my parents the chocolate they like the most. Missed out on Easter as I was sick, made up for it today. We had a nice lunch then looked at arts and crafts. But didn't buy any.

We looked at the house my parents are having built in a retirement village. It was only walls and roof timbers but we got the gist of where everything would be. Mum and Peter looked pleased at how things are going. An all round happy day. :)

All the chocolate I got melted in my car but I put it in the fridge when I got home.

A girl is starting a new job on 1st June. Exciting? Exciting would have been two weeks ago, but nevermind :tard:

Now for the fun part; putting in my notice at work and enduring the next 5 weeks :poo:

Had our anniversary meal today, since Carla has to work on our anniversary day and I have to switch out my snow tires for regular tires,  C'est la vie!

'grats!  I hope it goes your way!

Coincidentally, my son is to begin a new job next week. YaY!!
He's keeping his old job, though, both part time.

Yesterday I turned on the cub's star projector with its repetitive music after I put him to bed, and went to practice the piano. After a few minutes he called out to me and said turn it off, your music is better.

Win!!!  :congrats:

You'll never self-actualize the subconscious canopy of stardust with that attitude.

I discovered there's a new season of Alone on Hulu. I figured that was a great way to spend a rainy Saturday, so I snuggled up with my laptop, fell asleep, and napped away the afternoon.  :lol1:

I've been trying to find "Picard" without now having to pay for another subscription.

Paramount+ is cheap, but damn! I am already paying a buttload for internet, cable, etc in addition to several more subscriptions to find what we like.
I suppose one more won't really do much, except piss me off even more at all this.

I made a comment back in the eighties when cable first came out, TVs had that little funny looking round thing on the back for the first time ever, where the cable goes.
I said that it does not look like a quarter slot on a juke box, but it will end up being the same. You have to put money in to it for it to work.

... now, here we are!

I share my netflix with the girl and she shares her hulu with me.  :orly: We also have cable, but that's for Sugarbutt. I don't even know how to operate the tv.  :lol1:
