Update....sunny out right now 🌞

 Hello on Friday on a sunny afternoon.

I was puttering outside and came in for a bite to eat.... and to switch over the wash. Quickly did up the dishes and plan to go out again for a bit. The next many days call for lots of rain so might as well take advantage of this day even if a tad coldish /windy.

I was thinking of doing more sewing as I have been trying to sew together at least one block of the Potato Chip Blocks each day even though that has gone astray a bit. But with the rain coming, I can always plan to do the sewing another time when outside work would not be possible. And there is always book reading to do as I have two books to get through right now - ones that were ordered in for me.

We went yesterday to the Maple Sugar place just outside of the Village and bought 2 L jug of fresh maple syrup, and 12 maple syrup candies. I just made pancakes for lunch to try out the syrup and it is after all...delicious. A real difference between it, and the jug of store bought table syrup I have been using.

Now to go out. I made a little drink to take with me.....now the question will be:  Will I do any more work, or will I sit down in the sun and sip at my drink, and enjoy the outdoors and dream. What do you think?

Bye for now..  Have a nice weekend to you both. XX 😍💕

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...
