Each new day is a gift-


Good Day----  It's Thanksgiving---plus its also our wedding anniversary--amazing!--It is also very cold outside and this morning, there was snow in the air--first day of snow--- not enough to stay on the ground--but , it is a sign that winter is almost here. Canadian Thanksgiving is earlier than the American Thanksgiving--
We are going to Son#3's house for dinner---I usually buy the turkey and they cook the meal--That is because Son#3's wife does not have her parents anymore  where  son#4 celebrates Thanksgiving with his wife's family--Son #1 is at his wife's daughters place--It is usually a celebration with family--

The above is a picture of our new kitchen--in the place we are moving to--  Everything is new!

The dishwasher
and below, the washer and dryer
It is just an apartment but, I think we will be very comfortable there--no stairs--no yard work--I just might get my blogging done early in the day--LOL
How is your day going?--Do you have the patience of Job??--Mom used to say that--I knew then that she was about ready to lose it and to make myself scarce---Is it a good day in your house?

I shall talk to you all this evening---and I am heading out to cut grass---AGAIN___!

  1. Good morning Lynda. That kitchen looks wonderful, and upon seeing it I thought of your new stove top, and I believe you purchased a new refrigerator not that long ago. I do remember last year you had painting done in the house.Whatever that was purchased or painted in the last year should be mentioned to the realtor so that she can add it to your listing. I think you and himself are going to be very happy in your new surroundings, son't you?

  4. OH my . . . . Happy anniversary and Happy Thanksgiving! Awesome!

    OH NO! Snow in the air already. Too early for me.

    HOLY MOLEY! That kitchen looks gorgeous! Everything looks very accessible! Looks lovely and even better . . . will make life easier for you and Himself!

    Quite the day here. Had labs drawn for my physical (which is next Monday). Well, had to have 4 vials of blood – no problem, except . . . when disengaging the first tube, he took the needle out with it. *SIGH* Had to be stuck again. I guess should be the worst thing to happen, right. And he did get the needed tubes filled.

    Had DH with me because he has an eye exam scheduled right after (about ½ hr. drive away. Well, we got there and . . . “Mr. Levine, your appointment is tomorrow @ 9 am.”: SERIOUSLY? We both walked out of there shaking our head. Could both of us have screwed it up? Well, turns out we didn’t. We looked @ the appointment care and, clearly written, 10 am 14 October. SO, then the next chore was making sure we DID actually have an appointment tomorrow. Confirmed. Then the NEXT chore was re-scheduling DH’s PT appointment tomorrow. *SIGH* Got that done. What a cascade of ridiculousness.

    Well, onward.

    Hugs and blessings

  5. It's Kathy. Happy Anniversary to you both! And Happy Thanksgiving. Sounds like a lovely way to celebrate with family. I put the word out that I will not be hosting any more family gatherings so my daughter Lauriellen will do Thanksgiving and my daughter Jessica will do Christmas. I will bring my favorite coffee cake! But we've got over a month yet before it all begins. Your new kitchen looks lovely. Oh what I would give for some new appliances and a nice counter top! Today is going well so far. We cleaned the house - kind of. My husband has to do all the heavy work and he doesn't see what I see, but he did good! And I did all the dusting and cleaned the bedrooms. It's hard for me to do things yet, but it was easier this time around! So I guess I must be healing!

  8. Hi Lynda, Happy Anniversary and Happy Thanksgiving. Glad you'll be going to one of the boys houses. No cooking for you YAY.
    Your new kitchen is pretty. I love white cabinets and the new, stainless appliances are lovely. I notice you have wood floors. Yay. Too bad you had to buy several new appliances in the last few years BUT that could be a selling point.
    How many square feet is new apartment? Is it 2 BR and 2 bath? It looks very nice and new. I think you'll be very happy. You'll have time to do things YOU enjoy.
    Still have to mow...oh no. Grass still growing here but I'd expect your cold temps to stop your grass from growing. We still don't have colored leaves.
    Patience...not always one of my strengths especially with my himself.
    Take care, stay strong, and positive.
    Big hugs

Your new kitchen and laundry area look awesome! So clean and new! WooHoo! You haven't said, but pets are welcome there? Hoping Lopez and Sushi are included in the move!

  13. I don't believe it! My comment showed after I copied it, chose to 'publish' and checked back to be sure it did. It's NOT here! I told you that today was Columbus Day in the US, about all I did, talked about your new place and the photos...I will have to start pasting it into an email, too, to be sure you get it.
    Once again, Happy Thanksgiving, Happy Anniversary..."see" you tomorrow. {{{HUG}}} Love, you sis Maggie

  14. What a lovely place to move into, and what a relief it must be to have the decision behind! Sending vibes of energy to help with "making it happen". Life's good here.
