I don’t know why, but I get the feeling that I’m waiting for something even though I’m not really waiting for anything. Does that sound strange or what? I have things to do but I am restless.
First, an update in regards to my previous post. I fell off the wagon this weekend when confronted with homemade SHORTBREAD COOKIES and … AND … HOMEMADE LEMON MERINGUE PIE WITH HOMEMADE CRUST. Did I mention it was all homemade? You can’t say no to that! Other than those treats I’ve been doing ok and feeling pretty good. I ate this today to help nullify the effects:
What else is new? Well, this is what the last few days have looked like around here.
Highlights:
1) Mark and I went on a wee hike near Wesley Clover Parks (a.k.a The Nepean Equestrian Centre). If you’re the type who’s afraid to get lost in the woods (er, like me), I recommend you bring a compass. The trails are so poorly marked you’ll be amazed you ever found your way back to the parking lot. I will admit, it was pretty though.
2) I met a member of the Canadian Olympic team, Michael Tayler this morning. He’ll be on the cover of the next issue of Kitchissippi Times. (Local peeps can look for it on July 21!) His event is whitewater kayak. He was at Dovercourt Recreation Centre as a surprise guest for kids attending summer camp and there were all sorts of shenanigans. I will say this, he’s a very nice fellow and a very good sport:
… you can see a few more photos right here.
3) A mystery plant has taken over one of our large planters in a big way. It just showed up, and it’s been growing like crazy ever since. We think it’s probably a pumpkin although I welcome your thoughts on the matter:
Also, we’ve entered the world of Pokemon Go. Have you? I feel a big post coming on about it…
