Mom arrived early Friday morning, I was in the shower when she arrived actually. We decided to go to lunch at Jungle Jims so we could say high. The restaurant manager served us and gave us Sam's employee discount! It was a very nice meal. We then headed over to Canadian Tire so that I could by some more paint while it was on sale. They didn't have any left, but I got a raincheck for the sale. We ended up there for awhile actually... mom bought me some new shelves for the apartment and convinced me to buy a full size BBQ. (which is awesome**thanks mom**) We decided to go to the Regent mall and mom and I ended up buying duvets for our beds. She bought us the duvets and I bought the covers for them. We came home and dropped everything off, but then drove back up to get Sam when he was done work around 4pm.We thought about going to a movie, but decided not to in the end. It was a nice visit. I have since put my feather bed back onto my mattress, added the new duvet and bought a new pillow, it's like sleeping on a cloud! Work is going by fairly quickly, it's getting really busy again, so the calls are back to back which makes the day go by quick. Sam is going to Dartmouth for the long weekend to see his brother-he's gotten sick and Sam would like to see him. So I get the apartment all to myself! I might call some of the girls on the weekend to hang out or something, maybe for a BBQ.
I was out this morning walking Gizmo and heard someone yelling at me from down the hill, I turned and saw a girl....looked around to make sure she was yelling at me....ran down to meet her and saw that it was Gillian McGinnis!! She gave me a big hug, she was heading to work, but we chatted for a bit. She has been in Fredericton for this month doing research at STU. It was really nice to see her, turns out she is moving to Halifax tomorrow though. She is going to Dalhousie University to get her Masters in Urban planning. That is pretty exciting. To bad she's leaving tomorrow, oh well at least I got to see her before she leaves. Anywhoo I gotta bust over to my Doctors appointment.....
