Sat., Jan 4

Where are we today? 
Stratford, Ontario
Well I had a good sleep and so did Suzie. Probably slept from 9-3 and 3-6. Felt well rested and up and raring to go. So at 6 I had some cereal, later a bacon and egg sandwich.

Suzie came around 10 and we discussed the day's events. Nothing on the agenda today, just taking it easy from my fall last night. I slipped off my chair and couldn't get up. Not hurt but have been put on a 24 hour escorted in and out of bed.
Last nights upper, meatballs in mushroom caps, roasted potatoes, salad and app

Ravioli, potato salad and apple crisp
I was hungry for KFC and Suzie went out to get it. Saved $7 on the bucket for two with the coupon.



Ate the everything on the plate.

Shortly after 5:30 Suzie headed home.

Thanks for following.

A relaxing day and a nice visit with my brother and his wife on a sunny day

Where are we today? 
Stratford Ontario

After a wonderful busy day with family great food and fresh air we both got a very good sleep last night. Right from 8:30 until 3:30 am with only 2 short nature calls. I slept like a log.

Then of course up puttering around some orange juice and coffee and a few laps in my wheel chair and now heck at 8 am if I did lay down for about 30 minutes just cause I could, guess I needed a bit more rest.

Got a Christmas card from Suzie's cousin in Ottawa, Ontario addressed like this and we still received it! Can you believe it? No last name and no apartment number in a 4 story building. Heck he gets lucky he did a similar thing years ago in the village of Plattsville years ago. What's the chances?
no last name and no apt number
Suzie arrived about 10 am we chatted for a while then down to the dining room for an early lunch, she bought me a piece of chicken to go with fresh cheese biscuits made fresh here for lunch did the trick for me.
chicken and fresh biscuits for lunch today
It was so nice and sunny outside we enjoyed sitting in the sun for a while, and as soon as I went outside one of my nurses Annie was right there with a warm blanket for my legs. They do spoil us here that's for sure,
loving the fresh air and sunshine here
think that is Holly berries 
Then a bit later heard my brother was on the way, so we sat in another sunny spot outta the wind waiting for them a perfect winter for it.
sitting beside the BBQ but nothing to cook
Sheri, Chris , me, Suzie,


brought me a beer right on time
for my thirst to kick in Thanks Chris
Soon time for Suzie to head home, I watched TV for bit then supper chicken fingers and fries plus my salad on the side.
a tasty change with hot sauce and plum sauce
plus my salad
This was a very nice relaxing day for us a good visit with my brother and his wife. After busy day yesterday was appreciated.

Thanks for joining us and hope you had nice sunny inter day too.

One day at a time

     Headed off to bed last night at 9 pm last night after a very nice surprise visit with GD # 3 . She was out Trick our Treating with her Mom and Dad. They were dressed up but with the cold rainy night did not get out to many places, But heck is sure was nice see them, totally unexpected, first time since 2005 since we saw any of our grands dressed for Halloween. Once we went fulltime we were never here at this time of year.
Loved her costume but she had just woken up
and switch most children under 2 yrs old a
 little cranky at first, she did come around though
      We did have a very nice visit and always nice when they can drop in.

This is GS# 4 our hockey player

and GD #3 in her cool costume
  After they left did not take us long to wind down relax. And head off to bed. We both got a very good night's sleep me pretty well until 4:15 this morning No complaints here about that.
hey we had snow over night about 34 f this morning 
      It was very windy overnight so we pulled our slide in so our slide topper did not get damaged and the coach a rocking and rolling most of the night was almost soothing.
       Because of the strong winds our satellite dish swung the head swung around at 7:30 this morning I bundles up and swing it back into position just so we could catch some of the morning news.  Man its was cold out there.  All the snow and ice accumulation, we not ready for yet. But this is fall and his is Canada mainly the reason we are heading further south buy now.

         Shortly after 9 am George from M&G portables came to pump out our sewage. We did get to chat with him for a few minutes and will be here next Friday for our final pump next Friday. After we have moved then we can winterize the coach and storage if at Dennis and Sandy's for the winter.
George is here looks like they have a new truck,
nice to see hi again he has been doing this for
 use for the last 10 or more years. They even follow our blog
out side a few minutes this afternoon 
still lots of snow and ice on the coach

     I laid down a dozed off for a couple of hours just because I could and was exhausted. Back up to and head a bit supper together. Another easy one Al of the Baydfiield Bunch gourmet meal just like you, baked a meal pie and some soup.

A relaxing day and preview of our new furniture

Where are we today ?
 clic a pic to enlarge it
       Happy Tuesday ! Are we excited? Yupper we sure are, more relaxed but the excitement kept us from getting a real good nights sleep. Hopefully better to night. Off and on finally back to sleep from 4:30 until 8 am after tossing and turning from 12 till 4:30.
        Got some OJ, Ensure and coffee into me , our family Doc called and wanted me to stop my Blood pressure meds and take potassium . Today is a do nothing day, much needed. For tomorrow the Stratford Hospital for 7:30 am to get my liver Biopsy done. So she ran into the pharmacy to grab that, back home made some phone calls for lability and contents insurance. Plus Ontario Hydro (our electricity here in Ontario).
        By noon the sunshine came out and sure felt nice. Sunshine makes everything feel much better.
         Suzie gave me permission now that we are confirmed for the apartment  to post some photos mostly of the furniture we purchased to get us started, just like a newly married young couple. Yup that be us for sure.
our apartment Patio on the ground floor centre
this is our floor plan
     We picked out the furniture we need to get started in our New apartment they will deliver Nov. 7th. What a wonderful friendly, family operation, word of mouth is their their only means of advertising and they do a very good business and after checking their prices we found them better than the big box furniture stores.
it looks small
very large 2 full floors
      We choose the suite with white kitchen cupboards as opposed to the dark walnut  and the light coloyred solid vinyl plank flooring, below the white cupboards.
cup board doors and floor below
     Then at Francis furniture we picked out enough to get comfortable once we move in. The rest will fall in place eventually.
comfortable queen box spring and Mattress
our bed
2 night tables
bedroom dresser mirror all on sale
2 Lazy boy rocker recliners
2 end tables for beside the recliners
       We have a nice maple kitchen table with 4 chairs (wedding gift from Suzi'e's parents plus Suzie's cedar chest is stored at Suzie's girl friend Chris's place and some winter clothes in a friends closet.
       Such a beautiful sunny day about 60 F but with the wind gusts to 30 mph we could find no place to sit outside in the sun and out of the wind, Oh well and least we can enjoy from inside looking out our windows and sunny coming in feel good anyway.
beautiful sunny day outside our front window
      Shortly after 4:30 time to whip up a bite to eat for supper tonight some more of that chicken with smashed potatoes and some tiny tomatoes
Suzie ate this tonight did not sit well will me last night
my portion I took the skin off the chicken should be better
could not finish it all though
      That was a relaxing day for us today, restless but still no energy I did have 2 ensure today though one for breakfast and one for lunch.
      Anyway that was our day resting up for my biopsy at the Stratford Hospital at 7:30am tomorrow.
      Hope you had a good day and thanks for dropping in by.

       

      This afternoon got a few pictures from Jeff Pierce a Blogger friend (Ruffin with Rufus) we met in person last year at Borego Springs California.
love that area there at Borego Springs CA
this be right about where we usually park
wish we were there too, love the pictures though

A nice relaxing day we enjoyed with some pretty decent weather.

Where are we today ? 
 clic a pic to enlarge it
        After a busy day yesterday a quiet evening and light salad for supper hit the spot. In bed just before 10 pm and slept right through until 5 am, chilly morning again 52F. Time to put our flannel sheets back on again. Fall is in the air. Our Blue Flame heater is already back in service and have used it a few times to take the chill off. After a nice walkabout this morning another 2 miles to start my day, chat with a few people. Then time to launder our cotton summer sheets and put them away until next summer. With the one easy load just right across from our campsite is the parks laundry. Nice and handy.
this tree is turning already
caught Gerry working staining the playground equipment 
        Then time for a tasty light lunch at 10:30 as usual, that's why we have supper by 5:30, and not much on the agenda today. A few more walkabouts temps mostly about 70F with some sunny periods, and some rain off and on for a decent day.
      And between walkabouts got some wonderful reading on our e-readers.
pretty decent day we enjoyed
campground still nice and quiet
      A bit later Linda stopped by to give Suzie a doggie fix with her puppies she was walking.
they do love Suzie
and they went see melinda as well for a pet
      A nice quiet Happy hour then was soon time to whip up supper. Tonight a couple of pork cutlets I picked up the other day for a good price.  
these are very tender I make schnitzel just like these
         Quickly fry in our pan and some cheese and top with some fresh made salsa to go with our usual salad for supper tonight.
not long these are so tender and tasty 
tasty salad with fresh tomatoes and cucumber
sure did the trick tonight
       Now another lovely evening outside still enjoying some of this warm late summer weather for a while, chat with a few people as they walk by. Then soon time to head inside as it cools down a bit later.
     Thanks  for taking the time to drop on by,
