Some Errands, The Rain Returns

The Ridge

On Tuesday, May 12th Bill had the day off. He had an appointment in Markdale for a follow up ECG on his heart murmur. It was for 8:45 am so I opted out of an early 6 am cleaning at the Mat and went with him. It is such a nice hospital and I waited outside of the Imaging Room while he was taken care of.

Good morning!
This is a bad picture but
we were thrilled to see our geese
had babies.

We left there just after 9:35 and drove the 40 km to Owen Sound for our appointment at Service Canada. We had our paperwork all filled out and our pictures in hand to renew our passports. Today, it took 20 minutes for the young lady to finish processing and send it off.

It was so surprising that I
wasn't prepared with a camera.

When we left there we walked through the mall to the Bell store. We've been talking about upgrading our phones for a year so this was as good a time as any to check it out. Especially since the two staff had no customers inside. 

Waiting for Bill

We left the store with new phones about an hour later. You all know the joy of that, I'm sure but we were quite pleased with the cost and the fact that our monthly service payments are less than what we started with. 

I was quite impressed with this
hospital.

We are not great at all the transfer stuff so glad she did it for us, however, I had to download an app that was lost and Bill has to set up the Wyze security cameras again on my phone. Not sure what is going on with that but he'll figure it out.

phone transfers

Back home, I went in and cleaned the Mat. It was busy with 4 customers, in and out, so I finished and got out within the hour. Today was a cool day but a couple of degrees warmer than yesteray - well 3 degrees. We had frost on the vehicles and the grass this morning.

By late afternoon, we reached 13.3C/56F and Bill drove over to turn the pump on at the Acreage. It was to be the last night below freezing so we could get water now from their well again. He got a bladder of water and by the time he returned, the rain had begun.

Lunch was yummy.
Deep fried onion rings for me!

It didn't last, which is good. for supper, after lunch at A & W we opted for grilled cheese sandwiches. It fit the bill. We watched a couple more episodes of Bosch before switching to NCIS. NCIS Origins is done for this season. 😮‍💨

Supper

Bill is back to work tomorrow, closer to home so he can take Black Beauty. Yay! This was a good day, with more things taken care of. The rain returned and is expected to last until 10 pm.

It wasn't busy this morning.
Good night.

Thank you for popping in.
