Good to see your messages

I won't even offer any further comments about my body form - enough said! But best wishes to your efforts to a better life style. I agree that it is not the diet that counts but a change in habits like walking the dogs, and watching your snacks. In my case, it is the intense outside work that possibly keeps me going but it also takes its toll eg increase discomfort with arthritic fingers and other joints. Today I thought about trying to play the piano again - so I cleared off the bench but realized that it required other cleaning of boxes under the bench and on the piano itself, so left it for another time. I thought the finger movement might help me. I am doing the fourth and final side of sewing on the backing on the hooked rug - worked all day yesterday and got three sides done - now, here is intense work but thankfully not so many stabs of the needle into my fingers this time haha  We shall take it to Mike on Wed - we are going up again to  meet Harry's brother as Deanna has a follow up appt with Surgeon at the hospital- likely to remove sutures and check incision. Also Harry got onto the internet looking for pickerel and found a man in Sturgeon Falls ( 40 km west of North Bay) and ordered ten fish - already filleted and vacuum packed. We pick that up at 3 pm. Also his brother in law in Huntsville won two tickets from the Radio station to see a live show at Casino Rama in Orillia but we will have to pick up the tickets in North Bay and then drive them to him in Huntsville on Thursday as the show is Friday night. Oh my......
Anyway, I am about to finish the rug and then, since it is sunny again, I shall go out and do some work. I raked leaves two days ago, and after the wind and rain yesterday, the ground is covered again. Lots of fun! Take care
