a few tense moments leaving out of here as we couldn’t find Sparky. We had the windows opened up to get some air and all and I recall seeing him checking out my dinner but Anne couldn’t confirm him around the apartment. I was pretty annoyed by all of this and wasn’t too happy with her. She wanted to go on ahead to get a donut before work. So I missed my bus checking the back to see if he jumped off the balcony into the tree and escaped off somehow. I couldn’t see him. I was worried that if he did get off or we trapped him outside and he’s clawing at the windows trying to get in and what if he died of exposure out there. Sure it wasn’t that cold or anything but just the same.

Thank God we didn’t do OTH tonight instead CDIH. I ended up with 2 $100 sales a whack of $50’s and $35’s and I ended up with $865 by break. That’s a record for me. I ended up with $1050 as we ended up doing CBF small taps. It was a struggle to get to the G mark. We got out a bit early. Not by much and we barely caught our train Don and I. I’ll be glad when he leaves and goes onto something else. Not a bad guy but I like to ride the train home alone. I wanted to get home fast enough as I had Sparky on my mind. I was very relieved to see him on the floor with his brother Sporty. Even though I was kind of mean to my wife earlier as I met her at Belvedere station. She even kicked me there in the shin but I deserved it. I was just worried about Sparky. That's him above taken about 10 minutes ago.

But tomorrow I’m off as its lodge night. Regardless weather Neil is going or not, I still will go on my own. It’s just a ride to Rexall and the #8 heading towards Abotsfield and I can be there by 7pm. I’m going to enjoy that and the festive board a simple night out. If I can get a ride with Neil all the better.
