A little fancy footwork

These are strange times indeed. With less than a week left here in Edmonton, I tried something new. A first. I seem to be agreeing to a number of things these days with a, “Well, why the hell not? Sure!”

So yesterday I had a pedicure.

Well, my friend Liz was getting one and said, “Do you want one?” And, as mentioned, I said, “Sure. Why not?” Out of curiousity more than anything - and the fact that I really hate cutting my toenails (and they really needed it).

I had a basic pedicure. Liz had a French pedicure (at least I think that’s what it was called). I turned that down. I thought it might involve toe-sucking and I wasn’t prepared for that.

It was actually a very high risk activity, this pedicure business. Not for me, but for the person doing the pedicure. My feet are ticklish - big time. There were a few times I damn near put my foot through the poor woman’s head.

Blah blah blah … Later, I had dinner at some friends: Marnie and Sean. As always, it was great food - Sean’s the cooking guy and he always has fabulous food for us. I probably should have had a camera with me but I forgot.

I’m forgetting lots of things these days. Life’s hectic and I don’t manage that sort of thing well.

As for the weather … yes, as the clocks turned back the snow tuned up. Not sure how long this snow will hang around but, for the moment, it is definitely a winter look outside.

Ah, my.

    Snow before Halloween is just plain wrong.
