Good, authentic consultations with tax department staff, who were genuinely curious about how the new web site worked as I ran into questions.. The site is a dramatic improvement over paper or even docs.
So many wonderful things happened for me today that it is difficult to choose the best. A lovely visit with Nomi in the morning, a lovely long walk in the afternoon, and a magnificent movie, the Imitation Game, about the life of Alan Turing, in the evening. So I can’t choose the best (except perhaps the movie because it was the most recent).
The beauty is that we don’t need to choose.. just celebrate that such moments happened in your day.
So life imitated art tonight. After enduring a three act and three hour modern opera about a refugee and group of people trapped in an airport, Sara and I walked to the parkade to get her car. She used her magnetic card to enter the parkade and… you guessed it… we got trapped in the parkade.
The exit door would not open. We called a few friends to come down and let us out by passing her card through the iron gates but no one answered at 11;45 pm. Phones turned off.
People back at the post-Opera reception had also turned heir phones off.
Phoned a cab and got a recording.
Phoned the UPark line. No answer.
Phoned the police non emergency line. Only answered from 8:30 to 4:30 pm.
Saw a guy walking by the deserted street At LAST and called him to wand the card on the entrance door and Sara drove out the “in” door. We laughed. Ironic eh? Glad someone came by!!
You never know what you can (or can’t) do until you try it. For those who know the district, be impressed. I went out hoping to almost make Ogden Point, but met Mel Johnson on the way, so we went to Ogden Point together, then on to the boardwalk, then kept going to the very end of the boardwalk (I am told it is well over a mile each way) and then (now) home. A bit out of breath, but I did it, Overall a far longer walk than I had even dreamed I could still do. It feels very good.
Now the aim will be to do it over and over again. I’m not at all sure I can do without companionship. but it feels good, and is certainly good for me. So that is my aspiration.
Some What’s Gone Well moments stay with us and our animals forever
