Thoughts of the Week - Too many

 I cannot believe it is Friday.  I have finally completed all my Christmas Shopping.  I am feeling stronger and well rested because this cold is finally going, going, almost gone except for some coughing.  Well, when that is gone I will go and get my flu shot.  It takes two weeks to work so I just hope no one will be sick.  I have so much to tell you that it is simply too much so I am going to take a break and share just one tiny thing which annoyed me.  While at Tim Horton's at Yorkdale, a man who was seated next to me and facing me because I turned my chair from facing the wall to facing the people.  I was first seated and then two men came on each side of me and of course I was facing the opposite direction, right below a camera now facing me but not capturing the men, facing the wall.  I was taking a breather from shopping and reading a bit John Chrisham's book, "The Summons."  I was totally emersed when I hear a click sound and there is a flicker of light.  I looked up at the direction to the man at my right,  Nigerian in complextion in facial features and I thought he had lit up a cigarette (which is a no no).  However, I noticed his phone/camera at my direction  and the man had a smirk on his face, as I glared at him.  I found this so annoying and just kept glaring at him as he sat fixated with his eyes on the wall and that smirk on his face.  I just left.  This is the second time this year that some creep, decided to take my picture.  The other had the decency to turn red and lower his face.  So here are two men that I wouldn't give the time of day for getting my attention and not in a pleasant way.  Ironically, both were at fast foods, the other at Harvies, both when I was alone and reading a book.  A word of advice to creepers.  Don't be so hard up!  Don't take pictures of women without their permission and just because there is no law against it, be a man!!!!!! (Normally, I would be more polite, but what the heck - retiring?).

Now, I am in the Christmas Spirit and happy that I have completed all my shopping for Christmas.  I have a few video's to post but will do that at another time.  I do have some photos for you which I want to post but right now, I have to wrap Christmas presents.  I still have lots to do this December like hey close down my practice.  I did not forget.  You know it will be odd just writing and having fun.  I have never taken off more than one month in between retirements but now priorities have changed.  So,  have a great weekend.  You know where you can order one of my books.  I have two lectures, I just have to attend because it is so interesting, but it isn't til next month.  Lot's to tell you but I do need to wrap!!!!!!!!!!What do you think?
