    Good afternoon,

    Looks like Matthew is going to reek havoc in Florida and the east coast. During hurricane season I am happy that I
    don't live on the coast although I love the water.

    Not much going on at our house today. Did my exercise this morning, have had lunch and will get out later this afternoon.

    Have a good day.

    Well gang. I made it through Canada today. Took me a day and a half of driving and a 6 hour ferry ride. LOVED THE DRIVE!!!!!! Just me and my tunes cranked up singing along. Staying on a friends couch tonight and camping with another friend tomorrow. Went shopping today. Usually I would be in so much pain right now after shopping but I'm doing great!!!!! And the knee did awesome during the drive. I would stop at rest stops and stretch it out. And it will bend up to touch the front of the seat now too. I'm putting the new knee to the test.

    Hi,
    Congratulations Shirley and Connie on your loss.

    Connie-I hope the hurricane misses your area and everyone stays safe.

    Marie-I am glad they are sending you to a wound specialist, hopefully they get it healing for you.

    Esther-You sure are busy with your new knee, glad you feel better than you have in a long time. Have fun.

    Shirley-I bet your getting excited about your New York trip. Are you seeing any shows? I am not ready to think about Thanksgiving, not sure what we'really doing this year. Last year I cooked, but the past few years we went to my husband's family for dinner.
    Gotta go. Janice

    Morning, friends...lots of rain and wind that started last night and it still continues. Power is still on in my area and we are fine. It should be tapering down within the hour, hopefully. <3 Connie

    Janice I know Thanksgiving here creeps up fast and I seem to be doing the cooking mostly. One year we actually ordered Chinese food, a surprise by some but I was happy not to have a mess to clean up.

    Connie Happy to hear all is well in your neighborhood and you are safe.

    My daughter Kristina is here today and we went for a nice long walk together. Good to talk because I don't see her that often, she is almost 2 hours away from us and doesn't have a car. She usually rents a car but this time she got the Go Train all the way to Niagara Falls so we picked her up there.

    I finished frosting the cake today so we just have to buy some fresh bread and make a salad tomorrow.
    Tonight we are ordering a vegetable pizza for dinner tonight.

    Hi guys!!!!! I am home again now. What a great trip. After the shopping trip I went camping for a night with one of my best friends. I was able to do things I have t ever been able to do at his camp. He has a chair less camp. Usually I have to stand and chat but this time I was able to sit around the fire on the ground and visit. I was also able to get off the air mattress on the ground. I haven't been able to do that for almost 20 years. I went walking on the beaches too while I was camping. One was nice soft squishy sand and the other was wet sucky mucky sand that would try to pull my shoes off with every step. It also had green algae covered round pebbles all over. I did awesome walking on the mm. I had to climb down a spiral staircase to get to the beach. Here are a couple pics of where I was. v5hgxp2w3wj2.jpg

    No worries, Marie....it is water weight from the sodium. I ate out yesterday, too, and had a few bites of a fried blooming onion, ribeye, and brocoli. I am up today as well. I am drinking lots of water to flush it.

    Our Thanksgiving was a success and everyone enjoyed our meal together.

    Today packing for our train trip to New York City. We will be picked up at 6:30am so we don't have any problems at the border.

    I will be posting pictures on Facebook. See you ladies when I get back.
