Good Morning--I am here-- February 11th--dark outside--cold too--I am meeting Dave at 11am for "brunch"--That will be nice --just to get out of here--I hear that we are in for a mild spell weather-wise--Right now it is minus 6 outside--here in Elliot Lake-- cold but not as bad as it has been!
-Of course I have the washing in the washer--It is chugging away--
A brand new day is beginning---and here we are--a part of it---We CAN get thru to-day--a positive outlook helps --and I must tell you all that, the new "Snow Shovel" really throws the snow--It was from Amazon--about $500--- "Green works" or something--I shall return--after a few chores here to do-Meanwhile, grab a coffee-
(b-a-c-k)
A blast from the past--My Dad, in Florida, with Andrew, Son#1---and Matthew, Son#2--the pilot-
Miss Sophia-Allison's daughter--now entering her first yr UniversityAllison with Sophia--many moons ago
So, lots of very sad news out there--and we must live thru all this--
#1. Look beyond the past, present , and future-
#2.Now is a good time go begin living your dreams
#3.You are older longer than you are younger-
So, I hope that your day will be special--Try to make it a positive day-Decide that to-day you will be happy--help someone to-day---Eat healthy, and best of all--just be yourself--respectful, compassionate, and kind-

Morning Lynda,
ReplyDeleteWe have made it to Wednesday (Hump Day) half way to the weekend and Valentines Day on Saturday.
Glad you are meeting Dave for brunch. Sounds good and I bet it's nice to have the company to chat with.
We hit 65 degrees F yesterday, but it's going to back down to the 40's today. So I guess yesterday was giving us a hint of spring.
Have a fabulous day! Enjoy!
Hugs,
Jackie
Jackie--Valentines Day coming up--so happy you reminded me--I hope your day is fabulous also--Good to hear from yu--Lynda
DeleteJacKIE__11am--our Snow is melting-Hip Hip Hoorah----Lynda
DeleteValentines Day--Wow!--Lynda
DeleteI also have the Green works snow shovel. I like it too. My himself has just had a cataract operation and wasn't allowed to clear snow for a month, so I used the snow shovel it works well. I also have the trimmer and lawn mower for the summer, they are good too, and they use the same battery. It's still cold here in Montreal, but getting warmer. We had snow overnight. Mary
ReplyDeleteI have thAt same one and it can really throw the snow--Yes I like it also--=plus it is easy to handle--I like the batteries also--Lynda
DeleteOUR SNOW IS MELTING--LOL-- Can yu tell that that makes me so happy?--Lynda
DeleteGood morning, sis.
ReplyDeleteIt's a beautiful blue sky day here. Only 22F now, but it's supposed to get to 40F. I will be able to clean out the car and go get the outside washed, too.
We all have those chores to do, but I find it satisfying when they're done.
I have shopping, too.
That shovel sounds wonderful. If it was $400 less, I'd get one.
The photos? Great! Allison and her daughter...and the boys when they were tiny. What wonderful memories.
Nothing about Lopez and Sushi today, so I am assuming they're fine.
Enjoy your brunch with Dave. Do you have omelets, pancakes, sandwiches or steak and shrimp?
I'll come back at end of the day to see about updates or replies, as usual. {{{HUGS}}} Love, Maggie
Maggie, Greenworks has various models of the snow shovel. Some are a lot less,so if you don;t have tons of snow, one of them might work for you. I suggest buying from Walmart vs Greenworks, cheaper (on Walmart, make sure the seller is Greenworks). I bought my mower and handheld pruner/chainsaw that way. https://www.greenworkstools.com/collections/snow-blowers Might say sold out on this link but may be available still on walmart.com.
DeleteMaggie--Yes I had breakfast--with Dave--lunch-to-morrow also--wAndrew and his wife Lisa were there also--it breAks up the day--Lynda
DeleteThanks, Lisa. Are you a George Strait lover?
DeleteMaggie--THE SNOW IS MELTING__ I love it! --!From AmazOn Maggie and it works really well- comes with batteries--Lynda
DeleteLOAGrandma, yes, a George Strait lover! Have been since his beginning back in the 80's. Not to get political, but I was kinda sad when he took the Medal of Freedom from the current Prez, but I think he does deserve it, so I try to not think too much about it. I couldn't bring myself to watch the concert, though.
DeleteGood morning Lynda, this morning I looked at the time difference between where I live and where you live, and saw that you are 3 hours ahead of me. I actually thought it would be more. I am so glad that Son #1 introduced you to Dave. It's wonderful that the two of you can get together and share a meal and conversation. It benefits both of you. Good news that your temps have gone up and and you didn't have to deal with snow today. It would be nice if it remained that way. Enjoy your brunch with Dave and enjoy the afternoon ahead of you.
ReplyDeleteMaureen from California
Maureen I came out of the restaurant and SNOW IS MELTING--YEAHHHHHH!-- Spring must be on its way--Man!--It sure was a cold winter!--Lynda
DeleteHi Lynda, it's Kathy. I'm glad you are getting out for brunch today. I love having brunch - I'm never very hungry in the morning so a nice brunch is just perfect. Then I don't have to have lunch! Love the photo of your Dad with the two boys, so cute! I will have to look into that Green Snow Shovel. Maybe I can help Tom. Sometimes there's not enough snow to snow blow, but it would be nice to clear the paths a bit. And buying on Amazon is so easy! I just got home from my Pilates class - it always makes me feel so much better! I hope you have a nice day.
ReplyDeleteYes I really like this snow shovel-=-easy to handle and it blows the snow over the fence--I had purchased one a lot larger-Phil sent it back and re-ordered this and as well as half the price, it does a great job--easy to store also-- comes with 2 small batteries---Lynda
DeleteNice you are going out for brunch. ALWAYS good to get out!
DeleteIt is a bit more mild here, too. Grateful. And the days are a little longer. ALSO good.
Great that the shovel is so helpful for you!
Such a wonderful photo memory of your Dad w/the 2 boys.
And the photo of Sophia is lovely. They grow up too fast, don’t they.
LOVE your words of wisdom!
LOVE your meme. People in these times really need to remember EVERYONE is important and deserves respect, compassion and kindness.
hugs

It helps to pass the day to meet with Dave--and guess what--He wants me to meet him to-morrow too--LOL-- Lyn da
DeleteLOL--Yes--always going out--LOL_- Oh Barb--=just trying to keep busy--Lynda
DeleteHey, it's Marti. I must have missed the sad news, I haven't read anything about any sad news, in any case.
ReplyDeleteI had a good day. I was so worried that I would not like the young woman who started work on Monday and is sat right beside me now, but she's sweet, young, and seems very nice. A bit naive. Seems a lot like me, actually. Talks and hums to herself, marches to the beat of a different drummer - just like me! The problem is, she has lots of questions, and someone else has shown her to do things a totally different way than I do, so I basically was useless trying to help her! LOL
Yes, a warm up here. 50 yesterday in Central Ohio. Crazy weather!
Marti
Marti--SO SO happy you have a nicer person working beside yu now--It must be an act of GOD__--=LOL-Lynda
DeleteNo--I am sure she will find you a lovely person--nice for her-- Lynda
DeleteThank you so much for the info. I will check it out. Have a great day and enjoy your brunch.
ReplyDeleteChris
Morning Chris!! Lynda
DeleteI am so glad that it is getting warmer there I am also glad that the snow shovel works
