Smoking Summer

 

Try to keep on the bright side.

Summertime is over, back to school. A summer of smoke and haze.  Not that enjoyable outside most days. I have a constant runny nose, cough and or mildly sore throat on the daily. I don’t have underlying lung issues either, for those it must be awful. 

Sports camp ended in disappointment. (Not for mom) So at home for grade 12.

I was able to max out my TFSA for the year. I chose a 1 year GIC. 5.5% is solid earnings. The RRSP’s that I have are not great. My older TFSA holdings are doing very well. I’m on track to retire in 12 months. My hesitation is that the man is still working from home. My days off now are often not enjoyable or relaxing. I may need to extend my career if he’s still not in the office. 

What is beyond wonderful…I’m going to be a grandma!!! I couldn’t be happier!!!

I will make myself available for childcare whenever they need. So proud of both of them. They’re both working on their masters now too.

Middle kid - praises be has found a job and seems to really like it.

Youngest, well when one door closes another one opens. I think there are great things ahead for this year.

Things that are great:

My TFSA

My hair! (Not even joking) I use my new brush/dryer and found a great product medley and no more frizz,

My grandbaby!

Things that suck:

My parental units 

Not having a peaceful house for retirement.

Here are more happy flowers 😁 to end on a positive!
