Celebrations!

Today I did a lot of eating.  At work we had a luncheon for a woman who I have grown close to who is retiring.  It was very nice.  A select few of us were invited to the St. Andrew's club where we had a private room with a catered lunch.  They even had alcoholic drinks (unfortunately I could not partake in those).  It was all very civilized and the speeches were very touching and endearing.  Happy Retirement Sharon!
After work I got in the car and headed out to Pickering for Eid celebrations.  It took me about an hour and I got to my Aunt's house just in time for a quick bite to eat.  The food was delicious as usual but they were heading out to some other family so I really just stayed there for 20 min. and then went to my other Aunt's house where I hung out for an hour with them and my parents and Camilla and kids.  They will be having another Eid celebration on Saturday so I didn't really need to stay too long.
All the driving and rushing has left me exhausted though!  I'm not as young and spry as I used to be.
