fun day…

took numerous pictures of the snow outside this morning… pretty, if somewhat surprising…

then my daughter came by and we went shopping… picked up some seeds and a container to plant them in… then we checked out a few stores and I found a few plates and a lovely tray… have already used it twice… for supper and for an evening snack…

home for a nap and then my sleepover buddies arrived…

colouring (in adult colouring books, because he is way beyond kid books), electronic games, tv, hot tubbing and chocolate milkshakes before bed…

hope they go to sleep soon… 

all that fun has made for a long day and I am tired, lol…

yesterday morning I had a bit of fun taking pictures of the sun rising in the sky…

this is what it looked like at 7:24 as the sun was just peeking out through the trees…

then this as 7:49…

this was the last of the series that I took, at 9:09…

so beautiful and such a change when you look out the window at different times…

it was out for most of the day and even though it was cold and windy it felt great…

that bit of extra light and bright sky makes such a difference in my mood…

brush…

got out to the car around 7:15 pm and there were huge fluffy snowflakes on it… not tons, but enough that I needed to brush them off…

was in a hurry to get home as my Monday night friends arrive between 7:30 and 8 and I wanted to have the coffee going when they turn up…

got out the brush and then had to go back into my purse and get out the camera so I could take a few pictures…

luckily my spot is right by a light so I could get some good shots…

this was the best one…


snowflakes are so beautiful… glad I took the time to check them out…

giggle…

been a crazy busy day… but lots of fun…

had to giggle at lunchtime when I realized I forgot the hot portion of my lunch in the fridge at home, but I did bring the veggies, lol…

enjoyed taking photos throughout the day… a treat to spend time with my camera…

my grandson met me at the office and on our drive home we watched a bendy bus go by…

he took this shot for me… bendy busses make me smile whenever I see them…

on our slow drive home – it was very slippery and every car was moving at a snail’s pace – he caught numerous Poke balls and a few Pokémon as well…

he shovelled, I cooked, and when he was done, sent him home with dinner when his dad picked him up on his way home from work…

then I spotted sprouts in the Morning Glory can…

woo hoo…

toys…

got some fun toys over the last week…

first this cool leef gadget… it sticks into the phone and copies whatever is on it, then plugs into the laptop and copies the contents onto the computer… it also acts as storage for my phone…

very quick and easy… think that it is going to be much simpler than connecting a cord to the computer and trying to find the phone before being able to copy over photos and other data… such fun;-)…

also got a much larger hard drive so my computer will stop telling me it is out of room… possibly it thinks I take too many pictures…

and last, but not least, a chromecast… 

just learned about this a few days ago… it streams media from the phone or laptop… I can now watch Netflix from the bedroom, using my phone… very cool…

picked up everything now so that my son-in-law could get it all working before he heads home from holidays…

testing it all to be sure I can work it without any problems when I’m on my own, lol…

a few days ago I spent some time taking pictures of all the pottery on the shelves…

mainly I took them so I would remember where to put things back because I was afraid I wouldn’t put them in the right place…

it looks lovely and it would be nice to keep it that way, lol…

I remember the lovely afternoon we spent organizing the pieces… I had anticipated that we would be putting much of the collection into boxes, but not one piece went into a box, lol…

drive…

some wonderful moments today…

the sky was stunning as I headed downtown… there were a few clouds but the light on them was just beautiful… having to drive means I often don’t get the pictures I would like…

I took in a box of children’s books that had been hanging around the house and watched with delight as three colleagues found treats to take home for their little people…

as I was driving down a street in Charleswood tonight I came across a deer in a yard just quietly standing there…

ended the night with purple hair…

hasn’t had any purple in it for weeks so it was a wonderful treat to have it back…

watched the Remembrance Day service from Ottawa this morning and spent some time thinking of my parents and my beloved’s father who were all in the services, and my son-in-law who is currently in the Air Force…

brought home my flowers from the office yesterday and have been enjoying them all day…

had some fun taking pictures this afternoon…

as the day has progressed my stomach has become more and more unhappy… 

really, back and stomach… enough…

hoping for a better day tomorrow…
