I have applied for many teaching contracts for this fall. A large online school contacted me via email. I applied in the summer and I suddenly have a job interview tomorrow morning. I’m trying my best to prepare last minute. I’m trying to learn more about their teaching platform and the online school itself. I do not know what grade or subjects the schools in considering me for. Prayers and well wishes are welcome. Hopefully I can land another teaching contract and get off the sun list for a while. Covid cases continue to rise and have been in the schools that I am teaching at. Our local area is now at 3 active Covid cases per 1,000ppl and rising.

Did your gas provider not have a reconciliation month in August where what was billed and what was still owing for past year or a credit was invoiced to you? Did you find out why utility is estimating your gas use? Could be a staffer error or some policy? Your $$$ matter.

So far, our equal billing plan amount is staying at $101 per month with Enbridge Gas. I will find out in Nov if it trends upwards.

Need a breakfast plan as it's mostly been grab and eat whatever is around (snacks, leftovers, from a tin). Not very consistent nor healthy. Also, I have not made sure to have one EmergenC drink each morning. Sometimes I have skipped a day or waited until afternoon to have one drink.

Spent about an hour outside collecting branches and trimming tomato plants and putting some green tomatoes aside to ripe as I've cut their stems/vines off. Sky was looking like rain was about to fall, so I had time to take the towels off the clothesline.

Bro used Mom's car to collect his takeout order. While he was at the plaza exit waiting to merge with road traffic, another driver struck the back of the car. I did not see what the damage looks like but I heard Bro say he'd take Mom in the afternoon tomorrow to a repair place. Sigh. She only did about three trips in that car since he gave it back to her.

Thanks to @cath007 's reminder last night, I saved 4 PC Optimum offers yesterday. Have to see what the current offers are.

The fridge shelves need a cleaning as I see milk residue on one shelf, the crispers usually have one produce item in distress, and I keep finding three containers of something lurking at the back of one shelf (bin time). Mom and Bro like putting their items all over the fridge but I like everyone to have a shelf area for their things in one spot where possible and a large area for pots or tall containers. Time to oil door hinges as I have been hearing metal protests lately.

My own grocery list needs updating. There are two digital flyers to check as the weekly paper did not land today.

By chance, I visited the Ricardo Cuisine Facebook page and learned of a new partnership with IGA/Sobeys. I guess that means Ricardo meals and condiments and utensils will be appearing in Sobeys too? I know that IGA has the frozen meals already.

I don't mind cooler sunny weather. I just don't like the big swings in temperatures between day and night or heavy hot days.
Breezy 20kph winds are ideal for line drying towels and sheets!

Good Morning Everyone,
Covering the manager I did not cover yesterday today, it is a fun game of ring-around the jobs

Last night we made Burgers for dinner, I had a craving so we went with it. Made Homemade Potato Wedges in the Air Fryer, it was great they cooked in about 20 minutes vs putting them in the oven would have probably been 45 minutes. Only this was they did not get as crisp. I will keep working on it.

Tonight is a mystery as I am not sure what time I will be done, the manager should be back sometime this afternoon usually between 1 & 2 so I will head home and figure out dinner.

Might also grab some groceries on the way home, Mom is doing some weekend long course on Journal making so thinking I might spend the weekend in the Kitchen doing Ingredient and Meal Prepping. I really really need to go to Costco but not sure I want to tackle that today. I did not sleep well last night, my allergies kept me up so we will see how I feel once I am done work.

I will also need to tidy up my chest freezer, it is fairly full as I have stocked up on frozen veggies for the winter but I can also see a lot of empty pockets so think I can gain some space there.

There is so much I want to get done this weekend, I am feeling a little overwhelmed but hopefully I can knock it all out.

Have a great Friday Everyone
