From Best to Worst
The long weekend treated me really well, which is exactly what I needed before heading into a week of pain. Saturday started the long weekend out with a great gathering of friends. We met in the north west at Kilkenny's for a few adult beverages before heading to the Stampeders game. The game was against the green rivals from the east, and we were seated right in the middle of Rider Nation. It was a great day to be outside, in the sun watching football with some friends. In the end the good guys won, and I was able to rub it in the faces of all the Sask. fans that came to the game with us.
Sunday we decided to take a trip down the Elbow river. The trip was organized by Penny-Lane entertainment, but it wasn't very well done. We didn't get any of the stuff we were promised, but that didn't stop us from making the absolute best of the day. The bus driver dropped us off at 'Sandy Beach' which was basically a bend in the river with a tonne of rocks. We took our inflatible toys, mattresses, dingys and the pink lady and flowed lazily down the Elbow. It took us nearly 5 hours to float a few kilometers down the river, but it was the best way I could think of to spend the afternoon. After the Elbow trip we headed over to Calvin and Heather's for a BBQ and some sitting out on the patio telling stories.
Monday was ..... lazy. Lounging, movies, snacking and napping made up the majority of the day. I'd like to think I'm saving my strength for the battles of the week
The upcoming week promises to be awkward and painful. TMUTs has had his 30 days to vacate the premisis and as of the last time I looked out the window, I don't think he's going to make the noon deadline for tomorrow. This means a lot of running around and retarded actions as I show the city my suite (because he reported it to be illegal), and try to get him out of my house. It's going to be interesting.
