This has been a very busy week.  My grandson Addison graduated yesterday from NBCC Saint John. Although he has been working since last October, the ceremony was not until yesterday.  Addison did not wish to do anything special to commemorate the day. The ceremony was attended by his wife and his sister. My daughter and her husband did not go as neither one of them enjoy crowds. Our family is funny, as we don’t celebrate the big moments in life amongst a bunch of strangers. We prefer to get together as a small group to mark occasions.
When I’m on holidays next week, I plan to take Addison out to dinner, to celebrate his accomplishment.
This week my DH applied for his Canada Pension.  I am now officially sleeping with a senior citizen. For years he and his best friend joked about applying together, maybe making it a photo opportunity at the Saint John government office. As both Carl and Fred are known for their procrastination, they did not get around to it.  When Carl returned from mailing his Canada Pension application he telephone Fred. He wasn’t surprised to hear that Fred had just returned from mailing his application as well.
