Happy New Year? Until now, that's not it!

What a beginning! Fighting a bad cold for already more than a week, we, as well as 1000 other families, had the bad news yesterday morning that the shop where my hubby is working will close shortly. Only 3 weeks ago they were hiring! Only last week employees...

No snow yet!

Have I been so buzy that I didn't post for almost 3 weeks? Looking back, I don't have much to report for such a long time. We are still waiting for some snow so it will look like Christmas is coming. Outside lights look so sad without that white stuff....

It smells Christmas...

...at least at the malls. No way you can go buy a bit of grocery or a magazine without being caught in traffic jams in and out the stores; as if December 1st rang a bell to tell everyone it was time to shop. As much as I can I am staying home but well,...

Out of breath

I didn't post last week-end... I can barely keep up with everything. Too many different classes scheduled and I made myself available every thuesday afternoon in between so I ended up overbooked and overwhelmed. Good thing is that I learned a lesson....

Lots of rain, very little stitches

We've had it; the perfect November... rain, rain and rain again with some cold and wind. It's okay, I still prefer rain over snow and ice. Not much knitting for me. I was too buzy with the class preparation to think of anything else. Even the torch didn't...

I did it!

And, I didn't fall once! Boy, I didn't remember ice was that slippery. It wasn't that bad, my legs were shaky, I was scared but I could hold on for 15 minutes the first time, about 10 laps. Then, the next day I did 45 minutes. Of course, I had to rest...

The wind.

That's what I call a true Fall day. Since yesterday, all we hear from outside is the wind. Leaves everywhere, broken branches in the streets, the occasionnal trashcan passing in front of the house as if it was a car... It's in that temperature that I...

A so-so week

I'll go quickly over the 400 miles drive in a day to go to funerals; quickly too over the overload of work and no time to play; even more quickly over the S***...you know, that white stuff falling from the sky!!! Let's say it's over and I hope the next...

The very early snow falls in some areas of US and

The very early snow falls in some areas of US and Canada had people running into stores to get winter coats and boots. We are no different; while DD is here for the week-end, we had to take her do some shopping so she won’t freeze. We braved the crowds...
