Final Destination?

In reading our Stoic reading for the day it emphasised the need to keep the final goal in mind. Hmmmm what was my "final goal"? Guess I got some soul searching to do again, sigh....

The wonder of family

We spent the weekend visiting family. My mother was performing in her musical/variety group and we went to see the show and spend the weekend visiting with my sisters and their families.

What a wonderful blessing family is! We managed to come away with many videos of family members, having had two new babies added to the ranks recently.

Today is my day to get back on track with housework, epublishing, etc. and touch base again with my daughters. There is a definite chill in the air this morning and the promise of sunshine for later in the day and tomorrow. We are then into rain again so hopefully I will be able to finish the winterization process today and tomorrow and get the outside ready for the winter that is about to descend upon us soon!

Thankfulness

The Canadian Thanksgiving weekend is upon us. We are currently painting our bedroom for our youngest daughter to move into. We have moved into a smaller room, downsizing our "stuff" and creating a Family room in the daughter's old bedroom. Yay, the goggle box will once again be out of the main living room!

We will probably move the piano into the living room and have a dedicated office for our e-publishing business and the household paperwork.

Michel, the hubby, made a wonderful soup for lunch (Parsnip, Pear and Leek soup). Definitely a "do again" recipe! We have chicken and black bean chili in the slow cooker for supper. I am heading out now to Leading Note to pick up some music books for our youngest daughter, Emilie. Hope everyone is enjoying the lovely fall weather and spending time being thankful for all of our blessings!
