Pleasant Surprise ...

From The TransCanada Team

Mike was invited for a Christmas cheer get together after work ...

with his team at TransCanada ...

little did he know that he and another co-worker ...

(who has been with the company for 30 years) ...

were the reason for this event ...

what a wonderful surprise ...

he was showered with gifts from the "guys" 

to wish him well with his Retirement ...

I was just as surprised when I spoke with Mike that evening ...

when he informed me that I had received gifts as well ...

New watches for the both of us ...

I had asked Mike if they had taken any pictures during the evening ...

of course NOT ...

with all the Blackberries and iPhones that have the camera feature ...

no one thought to take pictures ...

I was so upset ... what were they thinking ...????

I explained to Mike that they were going to have to schedule a do-over ... 

so that some photos could be taken ...

he said he would see what he could do ...

His boss was kind enough to take this picture this afternoon ...

after Mike explained the situation ...

that his wife is a "Blogger" and these events mean a lot to her ...

to have memories captured ...!!!

I also talked with Nathan this afternoon and told him about the evenings event ...

and that photos were not taken ...

all he said was "SO" ...

I could have throttled him at that moment ...

It seems the guys figured it would have been a good idea now ...

after the fact ...

hence ... I still think they should have a do-over ... 

and

I'd been more than happy to take photos ... !!!!
