sixth day in a row

Okay, now I'm sounding like a braggart. Sorry. I gotta restart my mojo and get my butt moving so countdowns work. I'll get over it. Maybe.

Yesterday was my birthday and I laid on the couch and watched Law and Order Criminal Intent reruns for 3 hours—a total vegetable. I am going to pay for it today. 364 more days till I turn 60. 2015 is going to be a horrible year.

I needed to walk today.

Today was our annual wreath making workshop. Megan, Sharon, Lil Bug and I all went. It was Megan and Lil Bugs first time doing wreaths. As a bonus there was a dog. As soon as Megs post pictures I'll post one.

I dropped off Megan and then brought Sharon and Lil Bug home with me. Lil Bug helped make dinner, schlep stuff too and from the attic, decorate minimally for Christmas, and helped me change the hall light bulb. I even got to take her to Cantelmi's so she could see an old-fashion hardware store.

Before I took Lil Bug home we went for a walk in Fountain Hill. The typical route up Bishopthorpe, up Findlay, and out Moravia.

 On Moravia, we ran into this fellow. He has apples for eyes, and apple slices for a mouth.

Then we went past the firefighters Christmas tree lot at the pool.  I loved this skinny tree. I'm a fat tree kind of girl, but skinny would be nice. No furniture to move. But alas, there is probably no tree this year. No international student with a desire to decorate a tree. Ebinezer roommate will probably make my life miserable if I got one. So it's better to forgo it. Silly tradition anyway. Who cuts a tree and brings it into the house?

 

The swings were dry so we also took a swing break. Snow doesn't stop us from swinging. We took the usual route home from the playground. Maybe 2.5 miles total.
