The things you see at the bus stop

 
It has been far too long since I actually posted a pic of the shoes of the day.  These are so pretty and very comfy too.  I hate those days (like today) that I get downtown too late to go to the gym but too early to want to work.
 
Yesterday I declared it the official first day of complaining about the heat and humidity.  Well, the heat was lovely but the humidity had my hair feeling like this woman's.  Thank goodness it didn't get quite so big but it sure felt like it.  Incentive to go to the gym so that I can fix it after a workout.
 
 
This past weekend we babysat and the kids were so good.  Even Charlie who got up at 4:30 on Saturday morning but had a huge smile on his face.  Couldn't do it everyday but he made such an early morning a lot of fun.  Babysitting was followed up by strawberry picking with Steph and Jonathan, much strawberry eating and a very warm run.

     

Sunday, Jonathan and I biked to Landsdowne to see how long it would take to get to Steph's and to spend some time outside on such a gorgeous day.  We couldn't believe that we got all the way there and figured out we had both forgotten to bring our keys for our locks so we couldn't do any exploring.  Lunch at Kettlemans was great though.  We enjoyed our ride along the canal.  A three hour tour that was filled with baby ducks, runners, walkers, rollerbladers, gorgeous scenery, a few too many hills (at least we thought so after a few hours) and great conversation.

Yesterday I was waiting for the bus to go home and a woman (yes woman, not girl) was looking at her phone and twirling.  She would twirl a few times one way and then make her way back twirling the other way.  It was very odd but made me laugh.  I think she wanted everyone to see her booty shorts in action.


Well since I have now made use of the "too early to want to work" time, it is actually time to get down to business.  One more sleep until my dinner with Brenda and I really looking forward to it.  It has been far too long.

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

Do birds yawn?

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&#

Oh but I want these.

The boss is back from the UK today.  I wonder if he brought me back these gorgeous shoes?   I think I deserve them since it was my 6 month anniversary here on Monday, I'm a loyal, hardworking (most of the time), fun, friendly, engaging, reliable, fashionable....well, obviously I could go on but I'll stop...employee.  Maybe I should have put that in an email and sent it to him before he left London. Yesterday I followed a woman to the bus stop and I marvelled at how she seemed to be walking while trying to keep something between her knees.  Had to be that because why would you take such tiny little steps in life if not for that.  Is that a new inner thigh workout.  Maybe I should try it because mine could certainly use some toning.  Plus, really, it would take her a week to walk a block.  On top of that she had on a skirt that went to her ankles (so you couldn't actually see if there was something between her knees) and the pointiest toed shoes I've seen since.....w
