How Do They Know?

paigea @paigea (36318) • Canada 13 Aug

Yesterday, our credit card company called to let us know Hubby's card was compromised. Someone attempted to buy hair product and yoga gear. These two transactions were flagged as suspicious. We didn't try to buy these things, so...

7 from 67

paigea @paigea (36318) • Canada 8 Aug

I belong to a group of seven girl friends. We met in grade seven in 1967. Four of them are coming to my house for lunch next week! We get together once a month, (whoever can) usually at a restaurant. It is the highlight of my...

Another Lucky Shot

paigea @paigea (36318) • Canada 4 Jun

We noticed the Robins going in and out of the cedar. Hubby slipped in between the tree and the house and saw the nest. Too high up to see into it. He reached up with his phone and took a picture. Just happened to catch this...

Lucky Shot

paigea @paigea (36318) • Canada 30 May

I'm doing a daily walk/scavenger hunt with friends. We don't live where we can walk together, we just post photos of our daily item. I was supposed to take a picture of a feather while walking yesterday. There were birds, but I...

Lucky

paigea @paigea (36318) • Canada 12 May

I was driving home from hiking. I met vehicles with their hoods covered in snow?!? Okay, it can't be snowing (+20°C). They can't have driven from somewhere with snow. Hail, it finally dawned on me. Suddenly the road was white,...

Springtime in the Rockies

paigea @paigea (36318) • Canada 4 May

Just got home from skiing. This picture was Tuesday morning when we were heading to ski. Snowed the next two days too. They haven't had their usual amount of snow this winter, but we got lucky and the skiing was great!

If You Know You Know

paigea @paigea (36318) • Canada 26 Apr

Once again I'm heading to the mountains for some spring skiing. And once again, I'm not in shape for it. In fact I've really badly gotten out of shape this winter. And I've gained weight. We've been skiing twice, so far. I had...

This is What Passes For Fun in The Great White North

paigea @paigea (36318) • Canada 17 Jan

Hubby threw hot water into the air. It froze before it could hit the ground. Actually, a lot of it turned to water vapour, the rest froze. You can find some spectacular videos of this on YouTube.

Time Change After School

paigea @paigea (36318) • Canada 6 Nov

This is a photo at 4:10. All the kids who walk and a lot of the bus kids are home by that time. Now it's 5:00 and still light. This is why I am happy to set my clock back. By the end of November, we'll lose about 40 minutes of...

Time Change

paigea @paigea (36318) • Canada 6 Nov

I took this picture at 7:00 am which on DST would have been 8:00 am. This is on the east side of the house. This is when children are arriving at school, which means they were walking earlier. And until December 21 it will just...

Time to Wash The Floor

paigea @paigea (36318) • Canada 12 Oct 23

Gosh, I am a procrastinator! I want to ease into retirement so I took today off to have lunch with Hubby and a friend. The lunch got canceled so I find myself with a free day at home to "catch up". It's 11:00 am and I have had...

Life's Little Mysteries

I want to make zucchini chocolate muffins. (It's zucchini everything right now!) My silicone muffin liners are missing. This is something that has never gone missing. I've used them recently, I remember using and washing them....

A Day With a Hike is always a Great Day

paigea @paigea (36318) • Canada 2 Aug 23

Met friends to do trail maintenance on a very pretty hike. The hike is pretty , but whether we are hiking it or maintaining it, I'm mostly struggling to keep up

Sweet Sweet Honey

paigea @paigea (36318) • Canada 1 Aug 23

A Bee Keeper has hives very close to our house. The bees love our yard it seems. Though they have wide open fields all around. We don't have many flowers. Often, this bird feeder is full of bees. We have to fill it twice a day;...

Now, I Need a New Plan

paigea @paigea (36318) • Canada 31 Jul 23

After a relaxing morning with coffee, a book and myLot, it's time to swing into action. Vacuum, wash floors, laundry. And the power went off. I was prepared for that last night during a storm. Not now while the sun is...

My Happy Place

paigea @paigea (36318) • Canada 22 Apr 23

Skiing is my joy. My legs weren't as fit as I hoped, but just lovely to be there. There is tons of snow; more than last month when we went. Hope there's plenty next month.

I am a champion procrastinator. Right now I have laundry waiting to be hung out, the guest bed to strip, more laundry to start and food that needs to be put away. And many other tasks. Buuut, Hubby fell asleep watching...

Should I Go or Should I Stay

paigea @paigea (36318) • Canada 26 Jun 22

I know I'm borrowing my title from a song but music is not my thing so no idea what song I am looking forward to my, soul restoring, hike today. Walking and chatting is one of my favourite things to do. And I am...
