Disappointed with "Blogger"

This is a sad day--- As yu all know, I do enjoy communicating to you all--  but --looking back---  like way back---someone--or ---some people have gone into my comments on your comments , and changed MY WORDS-- to  extremely critical words --on your President--and typed my name onto the comments--so --it looks as if  I was very critical of your President------  I feel terrible--- That is not right--- I would NEVER type in what was put there--  I may not be a big fan of someone--or some things, but I appreciate your opinions as long as the comments are not  derogatory--  I do not know how long this has been going on--  this AM was the first morning I have gone back to read what has been said----  and why was  this allowed??--   Isn't there a way that when you type in whatever you type--that it stays there?--- and  not be changed-- I am disappointed in the BLOGGER SYSTEM----- What can I do to stop this???- Any ideas , I would be certainly appreciated hearing--Lynda---
 

HAPPY VALENTINES DAY__

HAPPY HEARTS  DAY

Love is in the air to-day----

YES We all deserve a rest---The above Lady has the best idea!

I am just up. and have lotza snow to shove/push  way--but, I had to remind you that this is the day to tell your family how much you love them--

AND

YOU deserve a rest---It is also my "HAIR DAY"--Tell your husband how much you appreciate him---

Hopefully I shall return and check on you all-

Love is n the air---

 

Do not try to be Perfect--just real!

-my favourite  carton--so so true?-----So, How are you all?   As we say in the "north----Did you get dumped on????--(with "snow --" ??)--We sure did--60 cm-- fell here--  I have been cleaning around the car-- and the neighbours car--- Plus it is cold out there--minus 7 Celsius  here--with wind-- VERY  WINTERY--

So am I happy to be out of Elliot Lake , with a ton more snow there,  than here--??-- --AND --A VERY LONG DRIVEWAY----which would be left to me to clear--by myself----  SO SO HAPPY TO BE HERE!--Its an act of GOD for sure!--Please remind me of that , when ever I sink to the "depths of despair" --(which I did yesterday)--

                            Well,  I guess whatever will be  eh???-above is me--cozy and warm, inside----

So, when one moves, I am thinking, "the depths of despair" come often--because one remembers all the good stuff--forgets the terrible awful hard stuff--like--- being alone, outside shovelling, for miles and miles--all alone--wet-and cold -- Hey! Maybe the good Lord sent this extremely cold wintery day , , to remind me!----One never knows does one??-- 

HERE----We have NO STAIRS--- A STAND UP SHOWER --A SON WHO HELPS US---- AND HIS WIFE COOKS FOR US----Holy cow! ---  just some of the good things--  and--we have  money  in the bank--- to live on--without a worry---Jeepers Creepers!!------

                        I am listening to my classical radio station--- FM103.1 --so beautiful------ 

 So, I must get on with the snowy day here-- but first, I must remind you all to be happy in the moment---  "Each moment is all we need"--as it says below-----content--grateful--- accepting---

And , I must get off of here-- Looking outside, I see MORE snow falling--Lord love a duck!!!

Just try to be real--not perfect----"be you"----

 

You are amazing!

Snow storm coming--winter cold--'specially on our face--Will spring ever come??--  So much to think about eh?--- Can we put all that aside , and just think about  "US"---Yes, we CAN get thru to-day--

 The sun is actually shining here--for now--  You have groceries in the frig??-- Are yu feeling healthy?--- Are you feeling strong?---  and, the best thing--Are you feeling happy?--Some days really are easier than others---but---- You know, we always always get thru every day--no matter what happens--

I cancelled  my hair appointment for to-morrow--thought I might as well, as it looks like most businesses will be closed -----

Most of this region will be under a winter storm warning--to-day and to-morrow---Is it the same in your area??-

I had quite a time this morning, trying to get  Lopez out---  and when I finally did , it was so cold, I felt like it was going to freeze my face---But, we do have the sun-- and , so far, I see no signs of the storm that is supposed to hit us to-day-- 

I shall add to this later---  I'll try to get Lopez out again-- Remember  ---  You are AMAZING!

  

 

We Can Do It!

 Oh my goodness thought I'd never make it on here---  but--- Here I am---  Lordy Be!!--The storm is coming--so, Son#$2 was down here--early saying, "Mom, You have to get to the grocery store-- We just got back and there is no-one in the store"--

( This was at 5am---- and there I was , standing there in my nightie)---- --So----  I tootled into the  bedroom, got Lopez into his crate-grabbed the car keys--and I was off!)----  down the street, around the corner by the Bank--to FOOD LAND--no-one in the parking lot, so, I ran in------  I MADE IT --before the multitudes!-----and I grocery shopped--- enough for a few days--lotza oranges-- -fresh bread---  veggies-and-----  my downfall--- Gingerale --

You know, yesterday I drove to GIANT TIGER --out the highway--by myself---(Well sorta  by myself--Son#2 sat beside me)--I am getting used to the village here - It scared me at first--'specially after they told me that  I have that eye disease----  but----- I am taking those vitamins and maybe I really don't have that dreaded eye disease--who knows?--(Well, one can hope!???)-

                                    I am kinda a "stick my head in the sand "  type of person--LOL-

So, How is your day going??--Are you facing your world head on???-----or-----no matter what,  hoping for the best anyway??----- 

  So, here, in Lakefield,  we are going to get a bad storm with --like 1000 feet of snow--NO, really about 2 feet of the white  stuff--maybe--

-  Son #2 flew off to Montreal this AM-- will return this evening---  To-day he carried the recyclables to the curb for me--AND THEY TOOK THEM AWAY--even mine-----Lopez will have his Dog  Trainer come-- sometime next week, AND--big news, when Lopez gets in his "growl-y" mood, I tell him to get into his crate--- AND HE DOES---  He crawls in there and I shut the door--so, no more biting, for now--Big news for him!!! These dogs are not easy--boy oh boy!

Himself is good--- (sorta--for him)--I am trying to not eat the sweets--- and more  veggies---   The wash is done--  We have food in the frig--Lord love a Duck!!!  It IS a good day! How about in your neck of the woods??--

Are you feeling like a "fruit Loop in a land of Cheerios"?-----  (not a bad way to feel---kinda like you sorta fit in)  In any event, KEEP YOUR CHIN UP----  (Dads expression)--Just carry on---One more day under our belt---- 

                                                             Of course- WE CAN DO IT!

Believe in yourself--

 Almost  noon here ---  Late because a lot going on this morning--I drove to the Post office and mailed Birthday $$$ to Son#1's daughter--something I should've done sooner--- To-morrow, early, I will hit the grocery store-- AND--  I hear another snow storm is on its way here--Lordy Be!!!  

Himself was not too good in the night--kept choking on mucous---  choking--then coughing---I don't know why he has all that mucous-- I will put another pillow under his head to-night--

Our TV is full of TRUMP---We do not like him ----too sad that 2  countries, neighbours , cannot get along--Oh well--- not much I can do---sad tho---but---  I will try very hard to buy Canadian-  I never used to care--I consider Canadians  and Americans , the same people--altho I guess they are not--It seems to me that  we are all intermingled--(Is that a word?) I grew up in Windsor , Ontario, and we were crossing the Border a lot--to go to Church-----not really to shop, but some of our children married people in the US---so---  I always felt we were all the same. ----

I see the sun coming out--looks nice--Maybe it will melt all our snow--How is your day going???--- Did you get a wee walk in??--I am trying to do that everyday --I always liked the meme below---  It put a smile on my face--

                                Remember the above meme??--           Remember SparkPeople??
                So, I hope this is a good day  for everyone--  --I wonder how many days until Spring/

Just get out there and be amazing!

Good day to you all--light snow falling here--Winter is not over yet! Your day is going to go well--I feel it in my bones. 

 Lopez and I are  "up and at-er"  here! Son#2 has been down with Gerrard, his dog, and Himself and Sushi, the cat who came in from the cold-- are up also---I got to bed early last night-- with Sushi and Lopez-

-  Emma , our Granddaughter was swimming in Markham, and she did make finals , so Himself and Son#2 , watched the swim on the I Pad-------  interesting as they now post the swims on an AP on the phone--and "I PAD"--

There is Son#2, Son #3,  Emma , (the Grand Daughter)  and her Mom---  watching all the swimming , at the pool--in the morning--before the finals--

I have already been out cleaning up snow around our car, so I will be able to see the newspaper when the Lady drops it---Himself loves his newspaper!--

It is Sunday---hard to keep track of the days when one is home 24/7---

When Son #2 was in Toronto., he picked up some Chinese   Dim Sum at T@T--- Really good Dim Sum--Chinese people love DIM SUM---

So, are you feeling strong this morning??-- Is your day going well?--

 SO---  just get out there 

-AND BE AMAZING----I know that we can all do that!!

 

Life can be tough-- Be Strong!

Good day---  a quick blog here--We have sunshine, but it is cold--with snow beginning later this afternoon--minus 4 C---Snow  they say to-morrow also--kinda a normal winter day---  

So, I took a vitamin--yesterday at dinner time, and another this AM--with no allergic reaction--  praise the good Lord!--- (the ones for the eye troublers)-----(Yes I do have a lot of food allergies--but--who is allergic to a vitamin?))----  Son#2 has travelled to Toronto as our Grand daughter is in a University swim meet--I wanted to go so much but there is no way I could leave  Himself--or Lopez----and after the swim meet, I know they will not drive here--  It would be out of their way--Son #2 used to swim on the Nation Swim Team----All our children and Grandchildren, are swimmers--

So, how are you all??--It is so nice to have a weekend , to rest a bit--Altho I had to change the bed-- (only one bed--ours)--It used to be 7 or 8 beds---and-NO SHOVELLING ---The guy who owns this building ploughed out the parking area with his truck--

I try to remember the above--"Where we are headed is  more important than what we have left behind-"-I do sometimes think that one day I will return to what I have left behind----Will I??--I do not know--yet--Life is busy isn't it??-- I think I shall paste the above meme in front of my face--

                                                    It is Sunday----Make it a good day--

 

Life can be complicated--

 We have SNOW ----  lotza snow falling---  and VERY cold!!--I have been out shovelling  around the car, twice--  The guy who owns this place,  has ploughed also----(NOT ME!!!!  LOLOL!)----

So, I thank you --profusely---for all the support from you , with me trying to accept that  I now have Macular degeneration---It sounds like  the bad stuff that goes with this  problem, will happen slowly over the next  lot of years and in the meantime , I must eat lots of fresh fruits and veggies and take vitamins---lots of them---AND PRAY -- that I do not lose too much sight--Oh----and not cry---Lord love a Duck!!!--AND NOT SPEND TOO MUCH MONEY, --

      

So, to-day, Son #2 the Pilot, and I , were at the grocery store--AGAIN--I got more cherry tomatoes, green peppers--- fresh fruits and lotza veggies---  ---which may correct my eye sight--?????maybe????

        Life just rolls on--and on---and we  try to make the best of it--- --- as crazy as it sounds--

As I type, I am trying to cancel a credit card we never use-- ---Have you ever done this?--  I think they keep you "On HOLD" for 500 hrs  and then they sent us  to their "Fraud Dept"-thinking  because he (FRED)  cannot hear, that we are bad people--all I wanted to do was cancel the card-- --  Lord love a Duck!!   

I think women could run this world a lot better --  get rid of all  the present rules----- be way more sensible!--(4 hours to cancel a credit card--) and force a retired Dr to try to hear on a phone--a Dr who is 97 with a hearing problem at that!----- Be strong-- 

                                                     Patience is a virtue__FOR  SURE!

Macular Degeneration--I have it!!

                                                     Bad news is definitely NOT Good news

Well, I have not read your comments yet---but I certainly will later on this morning---  just got up-- did not sleep well last night--You see, yesterday I was at the Optomatrist--After several tests, it was found that   I have Macular Degeneration-  in my eyes---My Mom had it-same age as I am now --when she got it--   She was totally blind when she died--Hopefully I will not be that way--but--it's not looking good --right now anyway-------

-I hear Lopez --so I shall return--must get him up before he wakes the world----  I sure missed you all yesterday --will return soon--will settle wee Lopez --Lynda

Lots going on--and on----on---

 Good morning--  It is cold-- I have shovelled off the car--(which sits outside)----Ice and snow on it-- It needs to be driven-- We have sunshine--but  it is cold--and snowy out there. Lots of snow fell here yesterday--I think all I did was shovel yesterday------  mostly around the car--and on the car--(not like a huge long driveway--)

Lopez was difficult this AM--would not allow me to pick him up--or get his leash--I knew he would bite me , if I tried---Man oh man, I have never owned a dog like him!----  I do not want to give him away, but in my head , I know (I think) it would be the right thing to do----What if he bit  Himself??-- OR--My FACE ???--- What to do--What to do??--And if he were re-homed, would it make him worse??--I believe it would! I have had the Dog trainer in and she is working with  him--no change yet tho--

This AM, while out shovelling, I could smell bacon and eggs cooking--I am going to buy some bacon..--It smelled SO SO good~I almost went to the home I smelled it coming from--

The people who live behind us, had an ambulance thee yesterday--It looked as if a person had fallen--  The person was taken away on a stretcher, in an ambulance--These are the people who probably have seen every inch of me--- all winter-- prior to us having blinds-----

So are we settling in?-----Sorta-----  I do miss Elliot Lake -I do miss our home ----  and I do miss the people I knew there.  Does that ever change?-- Himself seems just fine with living here--probably even better than where we were  before--  When will I be??--

Will I ever feel like this is home??? I need to hear from you all--

So--I am off of here for now--   I go to the Optomatrist to--morrow--who will send me to an Opthamologist--The whole thing is like a puzzle-

Oh---  Trump ------ went back on his threats--kinda a crazy man I'd say--

See yu to-morrow-

A World of Worry or a World of Wonder --It's our choice!

Good Day to you all-- One never knows what each day will bring--does one?--We just have to cope with whatever  comes our way--and, if you are a Chihuahua, I guess it is hard-- because you a small---- So--  Lopez, the Chihuahua, this AM--did not want to wear his coat--I thought , wearing his coat a good idea, as it is cold outside-- so--he bit me-----and  maybe he didn't care about the cold--I should've taken him out  without the coat--- maybe?-

-He bit my hand--I have no idea how a Chihuahua thinks--but, they certainly have their own ideas--But----in the long run, did it really, matter  if he wore the coat--or not----

I did call the Lady who is supposed to know all this stuff, and she said, "He bites you because he is scarred of you--and now you are asking if you should squirt him with a water bottle?-Don't you think that will make things even worse-"

--- So------ I changed my thoughts--what if Lopez doesn't want the coat on--?---  Does it really matter??

                    (BUT---in my head, this Chihuahua should do what "I" tell him---)

BUT--- I guess I had that all wrong----  Seems-- Chihuahuas have their own ideas-----Another event---- the people who live  behind me, must've fallen -- An Ambulance just appeared and loaded a poor soul onto their stretcher----The house has stairs  by the looks of it--  It didn't look good.--precisely why we  live  here on one level---

        So. Himself, the Husband's day.  is going better than mine--seems he worries about nothing--I worry about everything---  and now---  we have Tariffs ----

            Crazy mixed up day going on here -----Things going on that I have no control over ----Why on earth do I worry over everything, even stuff I have no control over?---the Chihuahua----perhaps falling down a set of stairs--  What will Trumps Tariff even do?----------We can choose to  live in a World of Worry--or a World of Wonder--It's our choice!

It's Ground Hog Day--where is his shadow?

GOOD MORNING-- overcast --"kinda cool-ish"--no snow falling--  AND--the best part---is.....

usually

'LIFE' does fall into place--in time--

I woke up this AM---to ----"tariffs"---but---they were expected-- so----not much we can do --I saw a funny clip on the  television-- It was of a man in a grocery store, reaching for a bottle of ketchup--He had the bottle in his hand and someone came and tapped hm on the shoulder and grabbed the bottle right out of his hand, as he said, "Doncha know?-- You must buy Canadian--" so he took another bottle made in Canada--of ketchup--handed it to the guy buying the ketchup--kinda funny--because all Canadians  really like  an American brand , but now we must buy Canadian--LOL-- And, as if we really care eh?  

This trade action  is crazy--at least I believe that!-As if we really care----We  feel . or at least I feel, that our 2 countries are quite alike--in fact we really like each other--so--why are we going through all this shenanigans--which we didn't even agree to--Were we ever asked??--Are we ever asked?--- So silly---  Our daughter lives in the US--We have been neighbours for years---good neighbours --and now all this craziness-- 

Anyway, Son#2 is just about ready to land in Sao Paulo, Brazil--  flew all night--

I believe it is GROUND HOG DAY, to-day--no shadow to-day--heavy cloud --

The Dog Trainer was here yesterday-- and worked with Lopez, the Chihuahua for a few hours-- He grew to really like her--He barked at her at first and wouldn't go near her--but--in time, she won him over--and now is writing up a workout for Lopez and I . to work on--It will be up to me to work with Lopez-- hopefully help him to trust us all a lot more--

--  I guess , if at first life doesn't turn out the way we imagined, hang in, because life eventually DOES make sense---  maybe not the way we had planned, but even better---  How often that happens--!

 Lopez and I must  get outside-- I shall return-- ENJOY THE  DAY!

remember--

 

Let a Smile be your Umbrella--

 Well I just wrote a whole blog--and it flew off my page--  dunno where it went--  but--  I will try to remember what I was trying to tell you all--

 #1--Son#2 is having his breakfast , in Montreal-- , waiting to fly to Brazil-Below is a picture of the street--  not too many people up yet-- Of course, he is in a McDonalds--

It is sunny here--cold however-- no snow falling yet-- hopefully we will not get any to-day-

- Lopez and I must get out--His Dog Trainer is supposed to come this AM---just hope she can  help his temper-- calm him down --show me how to deal with him--

and--the best part--  tell you all to be strong--smile at someone to-day--It will make their day a tad brighter--so important---and I shall return--after Lopez and I hoof it around the parking lot-----  HAVE THE BEST DAY EVER!-.........-Just think about the meme below---
