It's about time.

Many of you can relate to Working long hours at your career. Raising your families. Buying a home and paying all the bills related to being homeowners and parents. We're now retired and don't need all that work and expense. Now "It's about time" and what we do to follow our dreams.

Windy and Unscathed.

Our Location today is Windsor, Ontario.

Click on the pictures to enlarge.

It seems strange how yesterday, when we needed to be up early that we slept in, then today when we could relax, I had to keep telling myself to get back to sleep.

When I finally started my day, I just started opening the Balcony Blinds when Kathy came out to join me all bundled up, saying she was cold. I believe it was just the shock of leaving that nice warm Bed that had her feeling like that. I had her looking at her Computer, while I put together snack plates for breakfast.

We were surprised when the Sun started breaking through the Clouds this afternoon. That meant, that even though the temperature was well Below Freezing, the vehicles down in the Parking Lot soon lost their Winter Coverings.

It was at that point that we shared a Store-Bought Thin-Crust Medium Hawaiian Pizza for a very late lunch.

After our meal had settled, we could hear the Wind increasing outside. At least it was not as severe as the last few weeks, where it would rattle the Privacy Panel against the Balcony Railing.

I did not wait so long to get things ready for supper. Even though I made them smaller, we enjoyed our Bacon/Veggie Wraps for our meal.

I was very young when my Father had me using his Pocket Knife to repair things, trim shrubs along with a few other things. Throughout my career, I again needed to use knives to repair Auto Wiring, Welding Cables, Engine Gaskets and Camping Equipment, which included cleaning Hundreds of Fish, all with hardly a nick from the blades. In recent years, Kathy has allowed me to indulge my Cooking Skills to the point that she is scared to use my Very Sharp Knives. She claims the grips are too large for her tiny hands as the reason. Before our Canadian Thanksgiving, I purchased another Knife that is designed to slice things very thin, and they will not stick to the Blade. I have since managed to nick my Index Finger more than a Dozen times since. I think this is life’s way of getting back at me, for all the years I remained unscathed.

We later watched a few episodes of “911 Nashville”.

We hope to be more energetic tomorrow.

The biggest lessons I learned were probably the times where I had the biggest setbacks and the biggest challenges, when I had the biggest jumps forward and lessons learned.
