Just some idle talk to brighten my day

 A bit cloudy and perhaps snowy today and then expecting torrents of rain during the week. Not really nice  " thinking of Winter " kind of weather.

We went shopping this morning and ended up buying garlic bread and pizza pops which i just cooked up for our brunch ( breakfast and lunch together) or our lupper (lunch  and supper together ) haha! Cathy...got you! It was terrible but it is gone ( I have a few leftovers to devour if I so choose)  And I just pulled one roll of refridgerator cookies out of the oven to enjoy. Couldn't waste the oven heat from having the garlic bread cooking without baking up a batch of cookies now, could I?

Speaking of Christmas.....well. I have been at least 😉. I have two strings of little indoor coloured lights sitting on the dining room table just waiting for me to hang along the curtains or long wall - have not decided just where yet but it will happen sooner than later. I just have to find a wall plug that will accommodate the two strings and also my little laser tree that will go up later. And before too long, i shall pull out the outdoor laser light and set that up as well. 

Busy week here with appts. Today it is the Vet for Bailey's monthly neddle. Then Harry gets his Covid vaccine Wednesday at his Drs office and Thursday I go up to North Bay for my Eye Check. Unfortunately the results from the previous laser Surgery a month ago have not proven successful so I do not know what the Dr will do. I'll know soon enough though, and will let you folks know.

So back to putting groceries away and on with the business of the day. Hope all is well there. Take care and be careful on those roads. Thinking of you both 👪🎄

The energy-sucking garage sale panic is over.

  We both made it through the day without faltering, very much looking forward to a good nap once things were over.  But then were so high couldn't sleep.  Both Loren and Amber were there to help us, with Amber stopping at Tim's for breakfast on her way.   I was up and immediately dressed at 7:00 (Omg!  It even hurts to be able to say that)  Then off in the car to set up 5 signs.  Of course, each stop one has to find a place to park, get out of the car, place the sign, and reverse the process.  That finished, I parked in the mall across the way, pulled my walker out of the car, and trudged off home.  I was so glad to have the walker during the day, mainly because the float was hidden in the small zipper compartment in the walker and I sat on it most of the day.  We moved the patio table and umbrella to the front yard.  Amber and I spent most of the day there, while Loren and Dave spent their time in the garage, until later in t...

Baking

  Yesterday I forgot to mention that I've become concerned about how much money we've been spending on muffins.  So I decided to try baking them on my own.  We got rid of all my baking pans at the garage sale so had to make a trip to Dollarama for a new one.  It's silicone and soft and wiggly, but also dishwasher safe.  I've made some Blueberry muffins that didn't rise very well.  Turned out the baking powder was over a year past it's "best before" date.  Went out and bought more. I've found recipes on-line for Banana Chocolate Chip, Chocolate, and another Blueberry that uses frozen berries rather than thawed--great--as all of mine are Frozen.  I'm also going to look for a recipe for Bran, but not today.

Yes. It is Sunday again

  Time keeps passing. Faster and faster every day. We had freezing rain last night and this morning but it seems to have stopped for now, but that damp chill goes right through me!  Lucky and Ally are both sleeping so is almost like having time to myself. I did walk Lucky this morning but we stayed off the road. We went around the trail cause it wasn’t icy. Less dangerous for both of us. I snuggled down this weekend but I will have to venture out tomorrow.  Hopefully the roads will be clear. They don’t look bad right now so it is promising. I get my flu shot on Wednesday and Ally has a vet appointment on Friday. And I’m going to call for a lawyer appointment tomorrow.  Chloe is going to have her “old people” birthday party on the 18th. Kik and I will go together. And I told Kik I would go to Winnipeg with her on the 14th. I hate the time change. I was awake very early this morning, even though Lucky stayed sleeping until 6:30!  It’s just going to be an extra lon...
