A WALK ON THE PIER

Fishing Boat in Port Burwell

Port Burwell Pier

SAT 08 JAN 2011  4:44 pm   Got my CD ready to send to Library and Archives Canada. They collect a copy of everything created  in any format in Canada. I knew about that but didn't think to send one of mine, so they wrote asked for one. Anyway, now it will rest proudly in the archives along with all the others. I wonder if anyone there ever listens to them. I guess if it looks interesting enough.

Got to shovel paths through the snow this morning. One of my favourite things. We got a huge dump last night. Now our place looks like some northern outpost with trails from building to building to car. Time to sit back and enjoy winter.

Jackie is hard at work on her Chi-Fusion course. It comes from Al Simon who also has a blog.Should be cleared to teach the first part soon. Looking at teaching seniors for who it is really helpful. It's easy enough to do but takes some commitment.

She's also trying to make the MAC less sluggish.

Just finished The Secret Life of Bees by Sue Monk Kidd. Excellent writing that stays with you long after you finish.  Characters are real as life; you can practically hear them breathing.

SUN 09 JAN 2010 2:29 pm   I mentioned the Big Breakfast diet earlier and gave a link to it. Reading that link later I noticed most of the comments were uncomplimentary, except the last one written by Mary, a person with diabetes. Be sure to read hers if you are interested. Her experience is closer to ours. You have to actually read the book and think about how to apply the information in your own life. I've never felt better since I started this diet, and definitely have never had so much energy. So there, nay-sayers!

Snowing heavily again, wood fire is blazing away and Duke Ellington is playing clear and pure. Life as it was meant to be.

But, it gets even better. Went for a frosty walk along the Port Burwell pier. Lot's of people driving around the turn-a-bout. It's a given - if you come to town you at least do a drive-by to salute the water. Felt good to get out and walk and I got a few shots which I shared at the top of the page. Now we're back home and the fire is still blazing and the Duke is still dripping honeyed notes.
