Believe in Yourself

 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 University

       Allison 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-






















---

  1. Morning Lynda,
    We 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

  2. I 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

  3. Good morning, sis.

    It'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

    1. 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.
