Sunday, October 11, 2009 | A General Update story

Cold gloomy day here in Calgary...flurries expected and its cold -7.  Winter is my least favorite season.  I don't hate it but it can get very gloomy and I am a person who seems to need lots of sunshine.

Day 137...am in a bit of shock that I am in the 3 digits...very happy though.

Not much happening in my personal life.  Just been hanging out at home.  Today my daughter is coming over and that will be great, we have been getting along really well.  Knock wood, don't want to jinx it. lol

I see nobody is journalling much this week.  It is our Thanksgiving this weekend...it is never as big a deal in Canada as for you guys in the states, don't know why there is that difference.

Thinking about Christmas shopping...it will be here before we know it.

I have been trying to think of a home based business that I could do part time, but no good ideas as yet.

I am getting a walker on Wednesday, so I hope to be able to get out a bit more.  Walking used to be something I didn't even think about...now it is a big deal.  Use it or lose it they say...and I don't want to lose it.

Well my DS friends, I really don't have much to say, but just wanted to check in.

Blessings

    WTG on 137 days! That's wonderful! Yes, it's been slow here lately, I hope that is because everyone is so busy and not struggling. The weather is getting colder too, and rainy also. It's that time of the year. Hang in there and keep up the great work. Peace and Love, Patty

    BRR..it's cold here too, but not that cold. We got about 5 inches of snow on Saturday, was melted by the afternoon. Just read your last few journals, you have a great outlook... you have really accomplished a lot and should be proud of yourself. WTG on rewarding yourself with a new workstation- and btw- put it together just like you stop gambling.. ONe day at a time. LOL.
