OTOH also received the official kind of envelope cheques come in, when no cheque should be forthcoming at this point (or ever, because everything should be direct deposit.) 'Ontario senior homeowners' property tax grant' to the tune of $500. Kerblonx! 'Applications for the grant must be made each year, using the income tax and benefit return.' Bless my accountant; I don't think he even mentioned that he'd applied for it. But very welcome indeed. Truly, being 65 is like Christmas all year round, as far as benefits are concerned. Have never had a job with benefits, so having prescriptions and eye exams paid for- even if most things (cough cough dentists cough) are not-- seems wonderful to me.

The dead days
Another calm grey dry day, but brighter than before: like the best of civil November. The seasonal fantods withdraw for a spell, as they bloody well…
