My head feels much lighter now...

 Greetings on another sort of mixed weather day. I just checked your weather there in Manitoba and not very nice either. So stay safe if you venture onto the roads today.

Stellar day for me yesterday.....I got my hair cut. 😁 It is amazing how one feels just to have a hair cut. If you will remember I had a permanent on August 4 without the hair being cut as I wanted to try to grow it longer. It was ok for awhile but as usual became unmanageable to point where I was having to pull it off my face and secure it in place....not nice. I went back to this same place in South River and she cut it perfectly which left a bit of curl that should hold for a bit. But she put in mousse and curled it with an iron in a way that made it look beautiful. Not that I will be able to replicate it but it gives me hope that I can at least manage it for awhile.

Well, I must try to watch that show on The Quilt Show since you have mentioned it Pati. Even if I do not actually sew anymore, I still dream about it and still want to watch others show their talent and pieces of art. So watching the shows does keep me stimulated somewhat. As does your  writing about your Studio work Pati so please keep that up 😉

Time for breakfast and then another day. Thinking of you both...take care. ❤️

    ps....I just watched that show with Canadian Peter Byrne. I enjoyed it as well and got a real laugh when he told his story of sewing the quilt backwards on the machine. Thanks for the prompt to watch.

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...
