IT IS ALMOST TIME--

 for Christmas to be here--
and in all the preparations for Christmas day--

I have also started a new job--
my training started last night at 4:30pm--
and I will be on the 'job' until 8:30 am on Tuesday--
so I am basically a 'prisoner' in the building until them--
I am now an--
yep--an angel--
actually my title is 'Night Angel"--
and I will work for one week each month--

I am on call with a beeper and a cell phone from the time the office downstairs closes at 5pm until 8am in the mornings--and all day Saturday and Sunday--and Holidays--
so this week end  I will be on call for 3 days straight--as Monday is the official holiday for Christmas--!!!
I have to walk the 4 floors of apts 2x a day,to  make sure everything is ok and that all service doors are locked--
and then if someone needs help they can pull a string in the their bedroom or bathroom and the beeper goes off for me to go to their apt and to see what needs to be done--and whether they need an EMT or Ambulance-- or they can call on the cell phone--and like any job there is some paper work--
so far I have had to do one emergency call and help a tenant get EMT help to go to the hospital--
I have been busy--( there is a bit more to this job--but I won't bore you with all the details)
Soooo--if anyone wants to know--see I really am an Angel here on earth!!

Soo--Christmas dinner will be here this year and not at my daughters, which works out good for her as she has been sick with a cold for a couple weeks now-she will come and help me with the cooking though in case I get a 'call'--so instead of Turkey we will be having fresh salmon!!

I think all I have left to do now is to wrap their gifts (son and daughter's) and a bit more housework--!!

So here is hoping that everyone else is on their final count down and doing well--

Happy Holidays from the newest Angel in the building--
cause I also get paid for this new Angel job--so fabric shops here I come!!!
Love and Laughter, di
