Hats off to you! I don't think I could do what you did. On the other hand, having a lot of people fixing things while you are taking care of the kids and trying to keep them safe would have its own downers, too.
Anyhow, so glad you could and did do all that! That's some feat to be proud of.

I wish you a speedy recovery from your knee replacements. I understand it’s a painful operation but worthwhile. I’ll be thinking of you on Monday. 😉🤞🍀☘️ Good luck, Lyn

I agree the cheetos aka the man who wants to be Hitler and Putin rolled into one, his ignorance will definitely have global impacts.

I've been getting as much as I can in order before my surgery on Monday, February 3rd. I'm having my right knee replaced followed my left shortly after. Writing didn't fit in for me either. Looking forward to seeing more of you in the months ahead.

In response to "New Year so far."

weather where I live is also unsettling. Took the dogs out for a walk yesterday had some sunshine but today is fog and rain on top of a couple feet of snow turning everything to slush.

Every year I look forward to something called January Thaw. This year we just had a new blizzard every couple days. If the thaw does not show up properly in February, the sap won't run properly from the trees less maple syrup probably. Anyway, forecast says sunshine tomorrow. If we have a freeze in the night all slush will turn to ice.

Watching grandchildren choose as they age is so interesting because society has changed so much since I was a child.

The feeling was amazing indeed. The first night was the scariest but after that I found so much joy in each task I tried. I've surprised myself on more than one occasion, Yes I can do anything I set my mind to doing.

I can’t say I’d be tempted to go camping on my own, so I think you’re very brave. It would have given you so much confidence knowing you succeeded. Afterwords you must have felt as if there was nothing you couldn’t do on your own.

In response to "All alone "

With the cold temperatures we've been having this far, I suspect that person wouldn't be leaving their house.

I don't know about you, but I've spent a week with no other contact, I found it very enlightening because I discovered how capable I was of doing things myself. This was after my divorce and my ex telling me that I would never go camping or kayaking without him, I was too stupid to do it on my own. I felt like I had a point to prove to myself. Unlike Hanks in the movie, in the back of my head I knew I could reach out and someone would come but I didn't give in I persevered and made it. I burned dinner once, over-turned my kayak once and the tent fell done on me the first night but ultimately I really enjoyed the silence.

I'm glad you're able to gather with your family. It's so hard to get everyone together these days. Hug that grandson tightly!

Yes it’s certainly an interesting time, but watching myself deteriorate each day is not something I relish.

My day

PROMPT November 26th

Today is Thanksgiving here in the United States. I know this is the prompt for tomorrow, but I'm going to give you something to be thankful for. The prompt for tonight is to be yourself. Write whatever is on your mind. Provide your own prompt, so-to-speak. I look forward to reading your posts!

Okay no prompt today. That means I can ramble on about my day then. Went to the shops. Huge mistake! Every man, woman, child and their dogs were there. It’s Black Friday of course.
Didn’t buy a thing because the parking was crazy, it was very hot ( 36 degrees) and I decided it wasn’t necessary to be there. Normally at this time of the year my Christmas shopping would be done and wrapped. But this year for some reason I’ve hardly given it a thought. It looks like either a trip to the Liquor Store for gifts and the supermarket for vouchers. I know, no thought whatsoever but that’s how Im feeling. Maybe the Christmas spirit will hit me later.
My singing group will be singing at the op shop on Tuesday, maybe I can pick up some gifts there!
We’re having a break up parties for the end of the year for singing group and my writing group so I may get into the spirit then.

Grateful

PROMPT November 25th

We all have something to be thankful about. In the United States, we celebrate Thanksgiving today. Tell us what you are most thankful for.

I’m thankful to live in Australia and in particular Western Australia. We have been blessed compared to the rest of the World. Geography has a lot to do with our “luck” I suppose. We were able to observe what was happening in the Northern Hemisphere long before Covid arrived here. The separation of Western Australia from the East Coast gave us here in the West an even better advantage. We as a State have been able to say who can come here, ensuring whoever does come in has quarantined and been vaccinated.
Of course folks here still complain about restrictions and lack of liberty. Antivaxers March in the streets, threaten our government officials and their families. But I’m thankful for everything our State Government has done to keep businesses thriving. Local tourism has never been so busy. Yet people still complain.
I have family in the UK where people still die daily and 40,000 people a day still get the virus.
