Psst! Over here! I shouldn’t talk about money, my mom told me that was wrong but I’m so excited I’m bursting!
Yesterday I got a notice from CRA telling me what my monthly OAP will be and it was way more than I thought! I swooned with happiness! I had to keep looking at the number to make sure it was true!
I had just got my car back with it’s new $1800 exhaust system. Ouch. Picked up my mail on the way in and there it was….. Service Canada. drum roll
I won’t say how much because, as I said before, my mom said that’s in bad taste. But It’s more than I’ve been making these years at Sobeys and I can live on it easily.
I’m working all weekend and I haven’t been this happy going into work in forever. Today I have my favourite shift: 10:00 to 3:00 and tomorrow 9:00 to 3:00. No cleaning floors!
I’m so freaking happy today! I love Canada!

I am so glad for you….see all that anxiety and for what? You never know what’s going to happen in the game of life…you just have to learn to bear what appears to be burden and see what follows. Again, I am so glad for you.
…and jealous. I’m living in the divided states of ‘merka and my future appears bleak (esp. reagarding retirement) but…I’ll keep rolling with the punches ‘cuz, you never know what’s going to happen. 🙂
Proving once again it’s useless to worry. A misuse of imagination. I know how you feel, I was hired at this job at 61 years old and did NOT want to work. Even though its been tough, in the long run the job was a good for me. And I made it to 65!
Not sure what a CRA or an OAP is, but I do understand getting good news about money! Especially when unexpected or really needed.
Drop by and visit me in Caneyhead!
oops! I forget this is world-wide. Canada Revenue Agency and Old Age Pension. I can retire!
Whoop! Whoop! I’m jealous.
There’s a happy dance going on inside my head for you watching you come down the home stretch. I know how much this means.
I feel light as a feather!
