TRAVELLING

There is ice on our little pond at the back.

Met Joanne on my early morning travels and walked a bit further with her company.  She walks at the same pace as me so that helps.

I think it will be safe to go to the Second Hand Store today but not to any big stores where they are having Black Friday sales.  Saturday from now on will be very busy.

We set out to travel to o our shopping but were soon discouraged.  We are not very good when it comes to shopping.

We had some Chinese food and dad travelled back into his hockey days with some old familiar stories.  Crazy but true stories.  Our stories are always important, as they reveal the real us, especially the one's that make us laugh!

At this stage in life with our aching feet and creaking bones we focus on the simple pleasures.  Meeting old friends as we travel through our days and finding joy in sharing and caring.
The waiter at the restaurant always asks about our family and is happy to see us.

"Each of us has the right and responsibility to assess the roads that lie ahead, and those over which we have travelled, and if the future road looms ominous or unpromising we need to gather our resolve and carrying only the necessary baggage step off that road into another direction."
-  M. Angelou

We are distressed by world advents knowing that all we can do is take one day at a time and pray for good to overcome evil.

Well, as long as you were fed then that is the most important thing. Randy and I often get so tuckered out doing all the other shopping we are too tired to go to the grocery store.

Christmas lights are the plan for the day, Randy even booked the day off.

Kittens are getting more adventurous every day, come down the stairs now and into the living room.

Big day for the little kids. They start swimming lessons at school. Nice and warm here for the grey cup game. Parking at the shopping malls has gone nuts again with all the Christmas shopping.
