Yes congrats to Canada on the hockey! No walk today. Mental health time looking at flowering bulbs at a local museum. Forgot problems for a while. The flowers were stunning. Two days behind on weights. Really need some decent sleep.
-
Today I learned that we have had 41 consecutive days with at least a trace of snow. Really craving more food tonight. Need a little something, something light. Argh.
-
Welcome to achefling! Lots of dedication! It was cold but we walked anyway. It helped that it was at one of our favorite parks which is beautiful in all seasons. Lots of specimen trees and shrubs covered in snow.
-
Yes, I have some seeds too. It cheers me up to think about gardening! Blustery again today. If Toronto has been having the same weather as us it is not hard to imagine winds being a factor in that plane crash. Too cold to walk but we went swimming. Sometimes I think the prep and aftermath are what makes me tired more than…

So cold and windy today!!! And snow from last night blowing around. Stayed in all day. Did more cleaning and some basement demolition. Have stock in the slow cooker. I haven't tried making English muffins for ages! Now I want some.
-
Welcome, Heidi! You are doing amazingly well. It is always hard to stay motivated. The best we can do is one day at a time. My story—overweight since age 6. Now on the verge of 72. At college and in my twenties I lost weight. After second child weight loss became impossible but weight gain so easy. Ballooned up! Around 10…

Great job on walking! It has been so dreary here I am not getting out much to walk. More work on the basement room today. I guess it is progress? Also filed taxes. I hope they don’t try to pull any tricks in the IRS. This new setup is making me nervous. Tried a new recipe. It involved making a substrate sauce, then sauteed…

Yes, May seems far away. The plan is to call every week to find out if there are any cancellations. Not optimal for scheduling a flight for myself. She is on painkillers, and she is working, but it is a drag. I think hubby waited three months for his knee replacement. Took a bit of a walk. Weather report is not hopeful…

Have a wonderful time out, Joy! I was correct about the food distribution. No let up for the full two hours. And most people were taking everything; not too picky unless they had dietary restrictions. Came home really tired and did not accomplish much. Must try to make bread tonight. Windy and slushy here.
-
Had not thought about Leslie Sansone for a while! Never got to my walk today. Went food shopping and did some decluttering. Tried an online recipe for a vegan lentil soup which was pretty good. Tomorrow we go to help out with food distribution. I fear the program will start to see increased demand soon. Daughter cannot get…

We need a new basement dehumidifier. There is a difference of opinion about whether we would need to run it in winter. Traipsed in the snowy woods today for an hour. Thank God for YakTraks, or I would never leave the house in winter.
-
Sorry about that flu! It seems like so many people have something this month. Hope it disappears soon. Daughter will need laparoscopic surgery to remove a non-cancerous cyst. I see a trip to occupy myself with granddaughter in my future. And give her mom a chance to rest. Yes to elk pics!
-
You will enjoy both PEI and Cape Breton. Very different landscapes there. Beautiful beaches. Hopefully tomorrow a doctor will be able to explain test results to my daughter. I think my mildew project is done. Still need to find out the best paint for those walls. Letting it all dry completely and having a fan on nonstop. I…
-
Kind of distracted today—my daughter is having medical issues and I am having a hard time focusing. Just hoping she will get some answers Monday. Not really hungry and got zero exercise. Snow on the horizon.
-
Well it warmed up but the snow is now crunchy with ice under it. No walk today. Doing great with that scale, Joy! Made corn chowder and yogurt. Trying to get mildew off basement walls. Such a job!
-
I did switch to stevia for tea, but still want sugar for coffee. I would rather have no sugar than artificial stuff. We have seen a lot of birds at our feeder, too! We have seen an awful lot of Canada—Maritimes, Ontario, Quebec, Sask., Alberta and the mountain part of BC. Still have not seen Newfoundland, the area around…
-
I have been to the green gables house! Also to Cape Breton which is so beautiful. But a long car ride for us. Cannot believe we drove 1000 miles with two kids, but it was one of our best family vacations ever. Trying to not eat much, but it is so hard!
-
Haven’t weighed or exercised due to this virus that seems to be absolutely everywhere! I am getting better just in time for wintry mix season—snow then rain. Yesterday was rain then snow. Thx about the photo. Honestly the only thing I enhanced was to take out the dirt spots on the train window away. The colors are true…
-
I should order a seed catalogue and make some plans. My local seed supplier went to some gratitude based plan and no longer sells seeds. They give them away, instead! Sounds noble, but I am unsure how I really am supposed to find their seeds. Feeling slightly better today, just trying to not push myself. If I watched TV…
-
Yes lots of viruses. Wish I could get better and exercise!!! Elk are amazing and so majestic. I hope they can do well in the East.
-
Back from nice trip but now have a nasty cold. I ate a lot and walked a lot. Such is NYC. Too exhausted to write more.
-
Swim today. Somehow I did it. Tomorrow we are headed out for a few days so not sure how much writing I will do. Stay warm, everyone!
-
So bitter today! Walked indoors on the Y track for an hour. Lots of other people there.
-
Agree on the beauty of figure skating. And cannot imagine doing synchronized swimming. Requires a lot of breath control? I could use a bathroom remodel—sounds daunting but I can’t live with ours as is much longer. Missing my walking with this frigid cold. Looking forward to a weekend getaway where temps will be in the…

Our 1957 garage is not super tall but it was built for cars with fins. I predict the next owner will be a motorhead. Afraid of ice in the morning so car is inside. We actually had rain today—highly unusual for January. Swimming but no walking. You are so brave about decluttering!
-
Not much walking today but got about 5000 steps at a museum. Went out for lunch and it seemed decadent to have a sandwich with two slices of bread. It is supposed to be yucky weather the next few days. I will swim tomorrow but would like to try a walk also. May not be possible. Good luck with the cold weather!
-
Yes it is good to listen to your body! Strength training, balance, and flexibility are all important. I have still been doing weights, but should add other types of exercise too. I want to start yoga next month—Silver Sneakers. Want to start slowly. Another snowy walk, almost like beach walking. I feel it should count for…
-
Personally I don't weigh every day, but I should every other day. It is depressing to see the fluctuations, esp. after a day when I thought I did well. Another walk—along Lake Ontario where there was pancake ice. So chilly!
-
My hubby lost weight and got out of pre-diabetic. Took a lot of work. Did some sewing and cleaning. Braved the winds for an hour walk. Time to veg out. Have a great evening!
-
Scale back up some, took a long walk in the snowy woods. Hope it helps something besides my mood.
