melted freezer, long days and vacation time

So I arrive home after working all day and picking up Sasha. Open my little freezer which I bought barely 3 weeks ago--to thaw something small for dinner and realize everything is toast. OMG Its all warm and I have wasted food! Deja vue back less than 2 years ago when we lost food in our new fridge due to the negligence of the useless appliance repair person. Then had to live without a fridge for over a week---thank you Trail Appliances.
OK I digress.
So fingers crossed the freezer will be replaced or repaired and all will be resolved before the week ends.
Trying to chill out a bit and realize there really are worse things to happen. Even if this is an inconvenience and an expense!! So far have not found someone to reimburse me for my food loss.
Look forward to April and being able to meet my pen pal from Brooklyn, see mom and take a week away somewhere! with Sasha perhaps.
Sasha seems to be enjoying her doggie daycare---good for her to socialize and get exercise with other dogs.  Good for the longer days I work too. :)
So where shall I go.....San Francisco? on my points?
take the train to Seattle and walk around and shop there? Or dog friendly place in the Harrison area or?
I know there also pet friendly properties in Washington state that sound nice too.
Would be nice just to get away for a week to get away fro  it all.
Wonder if we cold go to the \Kingfisher- they have pet friendly rooms....wonder if they have dog sitters so I can inspect the spa services?
It will be another early morning tomorrow...OK I get to start work a bit later-). Sasha gets to play with her friends---so that will be good for her as well. :)
Chatted last night with an army General from Afghanistan on Skype....interesting. But still makes me wonder why would a Army General want to chat with me in Canada? Says he is looking for friends in Canada. OK fine. But is he really whom he says he is?!
that's the problem with the Internet , its like a double edged sword. The amazing ability to be able to reach out across the vast space of  miles around the world and touch people's lives.
But then on the other hand are those whom take advantage of the situation posing as people they are not.
For whatever reason or agenda.
scary. and scams in some situations.
So hoping my new skype friend is legit. :)
He says he is divorced but according to Wikipedia he is married.  Yes he's on there...he did mention 4 kids.
That info was also on Wikipedia.
funny whom you can find there.
LOL  :-D
Still the one year anniversary is coming. And when I sit and reflect on Al--still feels strange at times to come home and not be able to say 'I'm home'. Or have someone to say- ' Honey I am home.'
OK let's be realistic we were not really close in his later years...I often wished I was single- he was no longer the man I married. It was VERY hard to live with him.
But still, its lonely and I miss having a companion sometimes. At night, special occasions...
After all, for many years he was indeed my best friend and I would talk to him about anything.
|I miss that.
But like I have said to some friends and family, I feel things happen for a reason. I believe that i am meant to do something else with my life and or meet someone else.
So the journey and adventure continues!
Adios until the next installment.
