Cannot believe that it's Ashley's Baby!!!!!!!

Friday brought about the end of our first work week here in Vanderhoof and it finished on a high note. I spent a good chunk of my day calling all the tenants at Riverside trying to introduce myself personally but gave up half way when I realized most of them could not understand me over the phone. One lady even told me she didn't like telemarketers and hung up the phone!!! So instead I began to knock on all of the doors to set up little one on one rendezvous. One of my visits was with Isabel, the painter at Riverside. The first thing a noticed when I walked into her room was a huge photograph of her and her husband in their twenties. The two of them could have easily past as an amazing Hollywood couple. I really wanted to ask her for a copy but I did not want to come across as a creepy visitor. We started to look through my landscape photos (four of which she chose for her sketch book) when we were interrupted by a two o'clock phenomenon called the Young and the Restless.
The Young and the Restless, for those who do not know, is a soap opera of which even my mother is a fan. I have not had the real pleasure of watching the show before, so when Isabel offered me juice and cookies I could not resist. Y and R is a wretched show but for more than half an hour I could not tear my eyes away from the drama. How can Sharon not know that the baby isn't hers, and how cold is Ashley to divorce Victor!!!!!!!! Reluctantly I had to leave Isabel and her soap around quarter to three because I had to set up for Shuffleboard and tea time but she has promised to fill me in :P
Tea time was just as eventful. Helen, also in her nineties is a very fierce competitor when it came to shuffleboard and destroyed me 15-7, 16-1, 15-8. It is not that I am bad but she would just not miss a shot. I am really enjoying my time at Riverside. In my time here I will be running the exercise groups and starting an actor’s group for the residence. Oh how this trimester will fly by.
