After a cool drizzly day yesterday even colder this morning at 6 am (48F) and yes I had a wonderful sleep all night long right until 6 am. My muscle pain has completely gone and I feel brand new again, yahoo! But heck it is still mostly overcast this morning and only 50 F with a chilly breeze. Not feeling like walkabout when this chilly, So just puttered around for a bit then a quick trip to Forest for a couple of things and check out the Turkey's they have there for our Canadian Thanks Giving next week, A decent price for Butterball turkeys about $21.00 for a 7 KG bird (15 lb). I will probably pick up on Monday that I will cook for my family dinner in Auroa for our Canadian Thanksgiving feast. On Oct 14th.

interesting skies this morning driving back from Forest |
Now a light tasty lunch and just because I feel great again I headed to the fitness centre here and get some exercise, beat up my body just because I can and we are here, being careful not to overdo it again. Lighter weights a bit and after about an hour it felt real good, no more pain. Outside right now not very nice for playing too much. Still overcast 51F and cool breeze, think we can putter around inside.

love this fitness centre here |
I have a bunch of Birthday and Christmas cards to take care of for our Grands all 8 of them, a perfect afternoon for it. 8 Christmas cards and 4 birthday cards to be hand delivered next weekend when we all get together. This took the better part of an hour, 12 cards I'm all, then our friend Ron stopped in for a nice visit flapping our gums, inside not outside. Always fun to catch up with Ron when we can.
Now to enjoy our page turners and a quiet inside Happy hour inside but then the sun came out and so did we. Melinda and Tucker dropped on by to join us, she is not working this afternoon, what a nice treat, Gerry was picking up their granddaughter.
|
always fun to chat with Melinda when she is not working here |
When Gerry got back they joined us. And of course the conversation just kept flowing,
|
he she is with Gerry |
|
Tucker getting a treat when Suzie says OK |
|
she said Ok and he was right on it |
|
we having fun in the warm sunshine |
Then she wanted to go and Play, what more than climbing the tires is too much fun.
|
the big tires are fun |
And so are the swings wherever she wants to go that is where Grandpa takes her.
|
she loves to swing |
They headed home about 5 pm and time for us to whip up supper.
For supper gonna grill a couple of chicken legs and thighs on our Weber Q I got on sale the other day to go with our usual salad.
|
not long to do these on the grill |
|
this did the trick tonight just enough almost |
Was going to head outside after supper to finish this posting but at 52 F and no sunshine decided to stay inside until this was done. The weather is what it is and we can deal with it whatever way we like. This works for us.
Last night after posting our blog we enjoyed reading outside for about a 1/2 hour and as we were coming inside Loree was walking by with Freddie and stopped to chat for a bit.
|
Freddie sniffing the ground, Linda had been by earlier walking her 2 puppies and of course he had to sniff around. |
|
he is looking at something |
Then as she was leaving managed to catch a bit of this colourful sunset over the valley right in front of us.
|
Love when we can catch these here |

Get out the warm coats! I fired up the wood stove today.
ReplyDeleteThe warm coats are right here, Karen, not far away. We don't have our wood stove anymore but out Blue Flame heater makes it real cozy inside.
DeleteA pain free day is a very good day! With the all the folks in jackets it may have been chilly, but looks like a really good day!
ReplyDeleteYes Jeff it sure is jackets will help with the colder weather, but the sunshine is even better.
DeleteStunning sunset. Well done. Happy to hear that you are taking care of yourself. Please go easy on the exercise for a few days. You need re build it up slowly.
