WE live in one of the prettiest places !
with the some of the most beautiful optical nourishment;
Specially the sunsets.

Just wanted to share one with you
as best as I could with a camera
but the real deal is worth the trip
to beautiful Manitoulin Island , take my word for it ... or let this image Peak your eye's appetite !

Valentine's

Hey, Hey Valentine's day lovers...

Yes you know who you are .

I'm not sure if I'm a romantic or not.

I should know after being on the planet this long but I don't

I like sappy movies and candy

I thrive on knowing I am loved

I enjoy dancing and getting dress up now and then

But mushy gushy kind of stuff

no, not really.

-holding hands , here and there.

-cuddling on the coach is o.k. too till one of us get too warm

-a kiss hello and goodbye is nice

-a great hug when you have not seen someone in a while is a must

but is this a romantic ?

I don't think so.

And we can not get emotional mixed up with romantic; these are two different boxes of chocolates my friends.

I know I'm emotional that everyone can attest to; but that romantic stuff; I don't think so.

My hubby on the other hand is very much a romantic and I do love him for it. I need to keep on my toes in the romance section for his sake and that is a very good thing to have to practise.

Happy Hearts day to you all .

In my home...

Just outside my home....
Country Living

January

This time of the year can be so beautiful ... if you just take the time to look !

Still just hanging out at home right now

curling a couple of days a week ; which I love .

Trying to get my house organized after a very full holiday session

And

We Got a "Wii Fit" for Christmas so I'm exercising and having fun at the same time

( who know!)

Life is good and I'm enjoying it!

Well the year is about done!


I found a dress by the way and with not too much trouble I might add.

Christmas was wonderful.

full of food , family and presents.

I am the first to point out I am spoiled beyond measure.

My hubby is so sweet to me and very generous gift giver.

Thank you Babe; your one of a kind.

As for this New Year around the corner... what do I have planned ?
I am not sure where it will take me but I'm up for it.

I have been asked to take part in a community theater production of " Goodness" by Micheal Redhill.
So that will be a big part of my year.

the new four wheeler will also be used a lot.
Photography and art to be sure and then there is my winter sport of curling to keep me social and somewhat fit.

SPEAKING OF FIT!
my hubby got us a wii fit for Christmas and I am doing Yoga n stuff with it; that should help the old body get back to some semblance of fitness ... not to mention the fun involved as well.

This winter should go pretty well I feel.
between these activities and my vitamins D and Light therapy I should be able to keep the winter blues' at bay.

My hope is for a better world always and a peaceful time for all in the New Year.

take care
and we will be talking soon

A la Later

Going Shopping

Today I'm going off Islande , Today I"m going shopping!

Normally I would be thrilled at the prospect but there are two items of clothing I dread buying.
the first and the worst is swim wear ... Yuk!! My body and my fashion taste never do work together when it comes to belly suits... I mean bathing suits!

the next and the one I"m aiming for today is Formal wear.
Yes you guessed it , I'm shopping for a New Years Eve outfit.
Fancy apparel for New Years Eve Red Carpet Party.
Imagine!

Well I've been avoiding it a long as I can but the time has come.
Look out malls and fashion boutiques the old girl it about to descend!
Wish me luck and THEM patience!

hello friends
I come to you on dial up and it's very frustrating to say the least!
I will try this winter to keep my patience and contribute more often

as you can see from the photo we have a new form of entertainment these days and it's fun .

see you again next week.

A La later y'all
