Day 24: Less than a week left

Challengers! We are almost done our 30 day challenge, and what a year/30 days it has been.

Yesterday was a rare day in the life of this homeschooling mama. I'm here in small town Ontario and Bobby is in Toronto. So yesterday I got to be the daughter, and not the mama. Oh the luxury of it. I stayed in my pajamas until 2, and was called to lunch. When I said I needed to get some work done, and would feel more 'worky' if I had a shower-mom said "I'll clear up lunch, you go have a shower." Yup someone cleaned up after me, and I didn't even have to ask them. WOW. Like I said, luxury. 

I decided to go work at the Starbucks a block away from mom's house, and thought I would take a picture of some of the beautiful old buildings in downtown Dundas. Sadly, it was raining so hard, I didn't get the chance. I put up my umbrella, and went straight there. I got lots of work done that was good, though I will say it wasn't the best latte I ever had. (missing the Junction) Now as I'm writing this I'm really missing the Junction-"Full Stop I need an Americano!"

So I'll do some cool architecture pics next week, and for today, the photo challenge will be... Some colour. I realise that lately (since the snow melted) the pics have been too monochromatic, and honestly a bit drab. So let's get some colour in our pics today.

Until tomorrow

Have an outdoorsy day

I'll leave you with this story of community and hope

I would like to talk about something I witnessed in town over the last several weeks. As I mentioned previously, we had a Polar Vortex. It was too cold to walk to the grocery store, let alone just sit outside all day. Which is what a member of this town had been doing for months.

My Winter Walks

I am just back from a walk along the country road where I live, a road bordered by fields and stands of trees. My intention was to get some exercise, which meant covering some distance at a reasonable pace. My intention is important, as it affects many other choices: type of shoes, clothing, walking poles, water, binoculars, camera etc.

Good For You Momma

 After stopping for the dogs to poop and stopping to change Jett’s diaper (twice) we were off!! We walked through a sunny meadow, climbed up the frozen cascades and returned via a side trail that skirted the riverbank. Bliss.
