  Good morning from the little city of Martensville, my home town.  This morning, I was once again reminded that we live on the "Canadian" prairies!  Wow, we woke up to a winter wonderland.  The snow is softly falling, everything is white, except Susan's car.  It was clean and dry as she backed it out of the garage on her way to work!  She just smiled and waved at me as she drove off this morning.  Man am I glad I got her parking spot ready for her, otherwise I would have been the one cleaning windows, for her this morning!
  Looking at the long range weather forecast, we are to expect snow off and on right to, and including halloween day!  Then starting November 1st, back above seasonal temperatures.  In the range of plus 8'c.  Which, if we are lucky will take care of most of the white stuff.  At least where the sun can get at it.
  Yesterday I managed to make the right measurements, and cut the final two small pieces of wall board for the bathroom project.  I even installed them, six and one half months into this project and the main bathroom now has inside walls. (this does not count the time that we started on this project before I hurt myself)  I also managed to do the clean up, though it did have it's challenges.  I am not sure why, but I still have issues with sweeping and vacuuming, especially vacuuming!
  This morning is the time to start the revision of the dreaded list!  I happened to glance over at it last night and noticed that one whole page was missing!  Now do you suppose that we were that diligent and accomplished so much?  Or was I trying to get out of doing things?......  Alright, we did Get every thing done.  So rather than have to go back and forth across a couple of pages, Susan thought it best to delete a whole page!  There, I have just added another page to our list, which probably added another month, or two, or three, or, well you get the picture, worth of work!  Just hoping and praying that we can have this main bathroom up, and running before Christmas.  Some of this list is definitely projects that will be started after the Christmas holidays.
  Not sure how much I will get accomplished today, as I am still feeling the effects from vacuuming yesterday, or maybe it's the change in the weather.  Perhaps I will go out and face the challenges of the weather, and have a relaxing walk to the post office.  This usually helps calm me down, and allows me to plan out my challenges for the day, at Building the Simple life.......................
