What a day!

Here has been my day today:

Cleaning lady called in sick today (ug)
Drove 3 kids to 2 different activities and got everyone where they need on time (yay)
Went for a 23 km run (yay)
Got back to the car 10 min later than expected (ug)
So arrived 10 min late to pick up daughter (ug, sorry)
Which made her 10 min late for friend's house (sorry again)
But she got the GO bus on time for Wonderland (phew, yay!)
Got to Son's hockey game: they won (yay)
But after son saw me wanted to come home and he couldn't (ug)
Went to 2 drycleaner drop offs but clothes cannot be ready for tomorrow morning (sorry)
Husband is picking up the de-humidifier (yay) so now I have one hour to stretch (yay), shower (Yay),  and vaccuum the house (yay!!) before seeing daughter's art show (YAY).



So great finding a water park in the middle of a 23 km run!!!

We have spent quite a few kms in Mount Pleasant Cemetery.  It is shady and quite beautiful.  I am keeping an eye out for Kim Bliss (friend from North Toronto CI who died in a car accident right after HS).  We have been noticing many Jewish stones which I find interesting.  I like how Glynis said that we spend our days side by side, together so why not?  Good point.
We also saw Prime Minister William Lyon Mackenzie King who had a very modest stone which was covered in coins.  I thought that interesting as in Jewish tradition, we put stones to show we had visited.  I also thought being a PM of Canada, there would be more pomp and circumstance, but hey, we are Canadian.

I am really enjoying our time there.

Today we also went exploring the Belt Line all the way until it ends past Dufferin.  We usually stop near the Allen.  Got a bit lost looking for it.  Everyone we asked said that they were new to Toronto.  Finally found it on our own.

Having fun making new running memories and exploring the city a bit.
