The Good Day All Thread

Good Saturday morning all. Currently -18°c and sunny. It was a cold dog walk this morning for sure!
Our regular Saturday routine is off today as my daughter competes today. But first, I'm sneaking off to "Seedy saturday" at our local church. I have a bundle of seeds to trade and some $$ in my pocket for the vendors. It's going to be a great day!

 

Good Saturday morning all. Currently -10°C and sunny. It was so nice to walk out of the house and hear birds singing this morning! Put me in a great mood instantly!
Off to the rink! Have a great day all

 

Good Monday morning all. Currently 4°C and sunny. It going to be another beautiful day, with highs expected to reach 12°C!
It's so nice to step outside in the morning and hear birds singing ... it really makes my day!
I'm going to get my house work done early and head outside to enjoy my day.
Have a great day all

 

Ah, Mondays--laundry and light cleaning. I delayed my chores this morning and nipped out to the garden to plant lettuces and carrots. About half done when it started to drizzle. I planted faster and got inside before it started to rain in earnest. Now I have no excuse to skip my chores. Perhaps I'll bake an apple cake as a reward for being a good girl!

 

Good Tuesday morning all. Currently 5°C and raining. We had a very wet dog walk this morning, but now we are home and toweled off and in a dry change of clothing.
I guess rain is one way I know I'll get my housework done! I'm canning pinto beans this morning, and finishing off the laundry. After that I'm not sure.
Have a great day all

 

Good Wednesday morning all. Currently -4°C and overcast.
Kinda of a 'bla' looking day out there, but at least its not snowing haha Most of the snow has melted off now, and the birds are back.
It's almost time to start cleaning up the yard!
I can't wait to have dirt under my nails and blisters on my hands haha
Have a great day all

 

Good Friday morning all. Currently just 2°C and overcast, with strong north winds. We had torrential rains overnight, and just about all the snow is gone. Bring on spring!
Today is a PA day for my daughter, and next week is March break. And if that wasn't enough time away from school, the Ontario Government has just shut down all public sector schools until April 5th due to the Covid-19 outbreak. Toronto's largest garden show, Canada Blooms, was cancelled the day before they were to open. I feel so bad for all those that had already put up their displays, costing them thousands of dollars, only to be told that the show is cancelled. NHL, NBA, World Figure skating championships have all been suspended, and even our local Maple Syrup festival has been cancelled. I just hope all of this stops the spread and life can get back to normal soon.
On the happier side ... my daughter has qualified for the Skate Ontario Provincial Championships!! Keeping my fingers crossed that it will be able to continue and she will be able to skate!
Have a great day all, and wash your hands lots

 

Good Saturday morning all. Currently -3°C with strong winds and overcast.
Well, all heck broke loose yesterday, and everything that could be cancelled WAS cancelled. Any event over 250 had to be cancelled, which led to hockey leagues cancelling, which led to arena closures, ice show cancellations and also Skate Ontario Provincial Championships. My daughter is so upset. Not only can she not compete in Provincials, but she can't even continue to train for at least the next 3 weeks as there is no where to practice! On the plus side ( I am always trying to see the positive in every thing), I have someone home for 3 weeks to help me with spring cleaning! I'm sure she will be thrilled
Have a great day all

 

It's drizzling, so I'm inside this Saturday morning. Want to know a sure way to make it rain? Send me out with a watering can to the garden! I watered the vegetable beds and was thrilled to see our lettuces coming up. Told my husband about the lettuces, and he seemed less thrilled than I . . . .
If this drizzle keeps up I'll take it as a sign that we ought to take it easy today. Husband mowed for most of yesterday, and I finished the pruning and scrubbed pots to put cuttings in. Thanks to Toni, I now know how to propagate Rose of Sharon.

 

Been watching Star Trek Picard on Amazon Prime
The story goes all the way through, not a different one in every episode

 

Good Sunday morning all. Currently -2°C and sunny. This is day 3 of my daughter not being able to skate. She is starting to get a little crabby. We have decided that we would do a workout together every day, and today I get to pick the workout. I found an old favourite workout online that I used to do in the 80's (the 20 minute workout). I'm sure she'll be able to do it, me not so much haha I have been wanting to get back in shape and lose some weight so I guess this is the day I start.
Have a great day all
