I did not leave the house today…

early in the day I took a few photos of the beauty in the backyard… the sun shone on the snow and the critters hadn’t made any paths through the white… even the garage roof was pristine…

it is always lovely to admire the snow when there isn’t a need to go out in it, lol…

out the front there were diamonds glittering everywhere… could barely see where the front sidewalk should be…

when the kids came for dinner my shoveler got to work and cleaned everything up…

there was a fair bit of snow, but it was light and fluffy… although it was cold, it didn’t take him too long to get is done… he has improved so much since he started doing the job… my beloved, who was very particular, would be proud of him…

won’t have any trouble getting out for work tomorrow…

woke up to snow falling… a fair bit came down through the night and it looked beautiful…

as I drove away I realized how big the drifts were…

after lunch I met a young friend at Total Wrapture and we had pedicures… then I decided to have a French manicure and in the end agreed to a shellac one… first time for that, so I will see how long it lasts…

home for a rest and quick supper and then off to see Come From Away with my buddy…

that’s her in the row in front of me and 3 seats over… I am calmly sitting here in the balcony ready for the show to begin, but it will be odd not to be able to chat with her throughout the play;-(… not too fond of heights so we got here in plenty of time to get into our seats while the lights were still on, lol…

wonderful show;-)…

vibes…

tonight I had a piece of Decadence chocolate with strawberries and blueberries with one of the last shortbread cookies that a dear friend gave me at Christmas…

she recently lost her mom and I have been thinking of her over the last few days so it was nice to remember her as I ate the snack…

many in my circle are struggling with health and family difficulties… it is good to spend a bit of time thinking of them and sending healing vibes through the air…

life is unpredictable and it’s good to make the most of every moment… today I had the opportunity to connect with a few wonderful women who I haven’t seen for a while… what a gift…

I truly am blessed…

I work with the most amazing group of people…

we are preparing for a big event and it has taken a lot of work…

yesterday colleagues worked in shifts to make sure that every tag was ready…

today, while I worked on lists, everyone else packed bags… besides staff we had a few volunteers who stopped by to help us…

a job that might have taken the entire day was completed inside of three hours… it was lovely to hear the chatter of the crew as they circled the tables getting the work done…

everyone pitches in for whoever needs the help… many times these individuals have surprised me with their ongoing support…

it really is an amazing place…

cards…

one of my Advent gifts was a set of flower therapy cards…

I have started to choose one each morning, read the information and set it out to look at… also try to think of the words behind it throughout the day…

used to read cards like this on a regular basis… nice to get back into a bit of a routine…

today I took three pictures…

the first was of the grocery bill so that I could enter it into the Wally Next App I am currently trying to get used to as the one I was using isn’t available any more, sigh…

the second was of my lunch… not exactly the best meal I’ve organized…

the final one was made up of screenshots from an email that Fitbit sent describing my activities over the last year…

not very many photos… need to start taking more because taking pictures does make me happy…

while the kids were here over Christmas they bought me a laundry basket just before they left… actually I found it after dropping them at the airport…

they were doing some laundry and asked if I had a basket… I said no although I do have a hamper in the closet but don’t use it to carry things up and down stairs…

it’s been kind of handy… who knew, lol…
