The weather really is gorgeous today. In the fall, when the sun is out, the sky can be a nearly indescribable blue in BC. It felt great seeing it even as we were running little errands uptown.
My EV has a heat pump for heating and cooling. On a day such as this, in order to keep a constant inside temperature of 22.5C, it will switch between heat or a/c depending on whether it's been sitting in the shade or the sun. I do like things that keep my comfort as a top priority.
Jay printed a few more air tickets this morning. He logged onto the Emirates website because, after three weeks in Sri Lanka next month, we'll head with both sisters on a small Dubai vacation. His siblings, of course, enjoy the shopping. Also, earlier in the summer, Jay picked up a cheap, 3-night MSC cruise for the four of us. It goes from Abu Dhabi to Dubai with a day on an island. Although short, this may give his sisters a taste of what we've come to enjoy so much over the last few years: cruising. We will return to Sri Lanka well in advance of Christmas.
We put today's papers in the blue file folder. This one is earmarked for reservations, tickets, and documents for our Winter of 2023-24. We often have a few trips on the back burner at the same time. Our color-coded file folders help keep documents organized. Yes, we take pleasure in using real printer paper. After all, we live in the forests of British Columbia and it's good for the declining paper industry.
