Beyond the Looking Glass

…Thanks to SoClose and Patty’s instructions in her comments i learned how to upload photos to this…

Hi all fellow bloggers.  Summer is over and after all of my travels I am stuck at the same weight i have been since January.  I have been continuing to swim.  My friend and I found out that we can swim for free at the local community college - about 15 minutes from here.  We get each other up at 6:30 every other morniing and drive to the pool.  I have stopped counting laps and instead am content to swim for 45-50 minutes and know that that is about 60 laps.  Today they even had music playing so the time passed pretty fast.  Then we stop at the local coffee shop for the day’s gossip and then lately it’s been off to our apartment house to paint and clean.  Both apts are empty and in dire need of something to make them look inhabitable.  I can’t wait until we sell it, but not in this market.  We’ve owned it about 12 years now and it was a good tax write-off, but now that we are both not working it is just a pain in the “A”.

We had a great trip up to Mont Tremblant CN.  Perfect weather, golf, hiking and riding DH’s motorcycle around the Laurentian Mountains.  He managed to lose his wallet while looking for golf balls one morning (he found 75!), and after re-tracing his steps with me we gave up can called the credit cards, etc.  Then low and behold, Saturday, we got a call from Mt Tremblant from a very nice woman who had found the wallet (money and all) and wanted to make sure the address on the drivers license was correct before mailing it back.  What a nice surprise.  She refused to keep the money when we offered so now we definitley need to go bak and take her out to dinner sometime.

I know I have a lot of catching up to do here on the blogs.  Maybe that will keep me away from the kitchen!
