Perfect end of the year surprise....SNOW.....just a little bit.....sweepable (which I had to do immediately). Weather people probably said it was going to snow but I rarely believe them when it comes to snow. So pretty and clean at 6 am.

Millions of birds (approximately) have come to the feeders this am and just a few hungry squirrels. Nice. I refilled the seeds and dried corn. 

AND the best was that a big beautiful FOX ran across the backyard too fast to snap a pic.....

I'm sipping coffee in my new mug and when it gets warmer I will wear my new T shirt.

Life is good ....Happy New Year

            SO I have to say Merry Christmas to all even though I am Jewish. I love the winter and I am NOT ashamed or embarrassed to say that yes, I really like Christmas music, (O Holy Night is my favorite) and decorated trees and houses, and the no stress about gift giving to family or friends. I'm not crazy about Santa and the reindeer but not my story to share. Want a miracle? Check out the Hanukah story !

I have noticed that when they skies are grey (gray) so is my energy level.....Clouds in the sky slow me down, physically and mentally. Feel sluggish, stuffy and tired, like a virus, but not. Probably doesn't have anything to do with PD....sleepy, lethargic and then revived by sunshine and clear skies and puffy white clouds like this morning.

So today I refilled the bird feeders  (yes back to feeding all squirrels and some quick birds) and took a ride to a small park in Columbia and took a walk even though it was quite breezy and chilly. If was refreshing and invigorating.

No exercise classes this week. So its up to me to move, stretch, breathe and be alive. No problem. Good morning SUNSHINE !!!

 



   

 It's a beautiful warm December morning.....supposed to be around 60....sunny and warm ......Perfect for walking around the yard and gathering a few last leaves and twigs. Also it could be a day to relax on the couch (as LilyWhite is doing).

The "theme" for todays blog is the simple greeting of "Hi How are you?"
Since I retired a couple of years ago I have too much time to think about that question and answer. Depending on who asks, the response could be "Fine, thanks" . Or (more likely) I want to scream out "HOW DO YOU THINK I FEEL....I'M OLD, I HAVE PD, and Trump is the leader of the free world."
I COULD add that everything (head, stomach, muscles, bones, all neurological functions) hurts. Or I COULD say "Doing OK"

I can still drive, walk without a cane or walker, move furniture, dress myself, do laundry/dishes/cat litter/recycling/yard work, and go to yoga and exercise. 

So the answer to "How Are You" is GOOD and YOU??

WHATEVER

             Good Morning                                                                                                                                                          

 It's been a couple of months since I have written about me, the cats, PD, the news.....anything !!! Fortunately no major falls, bruises, or injuries.  Had a great Thanksgiving here at home with my entire family in attendance. Celebrated family birthdays (lots of Sagittarians) 
Still going to yoga , exercise classes, raking leaves, moving furniture, feeding squirrels (and some birds).
Happy Chanukah, Merry Christmas 
Let me know how you all are doing !!!
