I WAS SO MUCH OLDER THEN, I'M YOUNGER THAN THAT NOW
Funny how you feel that way. I guess each year just gets better and better. You hope that you have taken care of yourself that you can live a long time. There is so much stuff still to do.
Today (or yesterday, depending on when you will be reading this) was my birthday so I decided just to do what I felt like doing. Nothing special. No dinner at Ozzy's tonite and I am saving the panzaratti at the Pizza Place for another time. BBQ hamburger and Kraft dinner. And a beverage. Delicious.
I putzed all day long. We finished the doors for the cupboard in the workout room. They look great - all that is left to do is the floor now in that room. I even snuck in a little vase for the mantel. I took lots of pictures of the birds with my new camera. I must say that I like how it works - the closeups are pretty good if I do say so myself.
It was COLD today - my face hurt just walking down to get the mail. Tonite -25C + wind chill of even scarier digits.
I must say that I am just amazed at all the people who wished me happy birthday on Facebook - how do they do that? Do all my friends get a little pop-up that says "It's Janet's birthday today". Is that how you know. Let me in on it, please. I am terrible with dates!! But, thanks everyone.
I will continue A Day In The Life tomorrow.
See Ya By

A DAY IN THE LIFE CONTINUES
Yes the continuing saga of my life continues - I timed it this morning and from the time I turned on my laptop to when I am actually typing this, it took 10 minutes - Yawn. I filled up my vitamin trays in that time. I also made my bed and brushed my teeth. Do you feel my pain. I have learned to have a lot of patience. But I am not complaining (I am learning not to complain or find fault - I haven't made it thru a day but I am trying).
OK back to my life. Where am I? Yes 11:15 - on the way back from the mailbox I stopped at the garage where Rejean is ALWAYS working on something. Today he is putting the raised panel doors together for the little shelves in the workout room that will house the cots, bedding for the cots and the snowshoes. I knew he wouldn't let me help so I filled up his wood pile from his wood shed - and being in the mood, I also filled up mine. It is all part of my daily exercises - I fill the wheelbarrow and sheel it into the garage (or house) and unload on the wood piles. I can't wait til spring to cut the new firewood we will need to feed 3 wood stoves (yea right)

10:15 AM GOING POSTAL
I went down to the mail box and mailed a birthday card to my friend Chris who will be "older" in a few days. Sharon, our mail lady, picks up your letters right from your mail box and if you don't have a stamp, just leave the money and letter in the box and she will put a stamp on it for you and mail it!! Talk about good customer service. Would your mail person do that in the city? I don't think so. She always gets a good tip at Christmas. It is a highlight of my day to go down and get the mail.
