It's Tuesday morning and I'm sitting at my computer and all I can think is - what a bright sunshiny day. I know most of the readers are tired of the deep freeze but I have nowhere to go so I sit in the sunshine and make like a cat. How does stretching, yawning and napping sound to you? I'm taking full advantage of this period in my life to learn how to slow down and choose priorities. Enjoy your life; you never know what will happen in the next five minutes.
I will be making my seed order this week which is quite a bit later than I usually do but this is a very different year. I' not sure if I'll be starting any in the house. This whole business takes place in the basement so that presents a whole newest of challenges like getting down all those stairs.
Community update

Hockey update
The Miller Aces are out of the playoffs and are cone for the season so I guess Simon Schroeder and Matthew Winter will get a rest. The Winkler Flyers are playing hard and trying to win and Brett Klassen is doing his best to make this happen. The Altona Maroons are holding their own and Angus Klassen continues to get onto the scoreboard.
Dave and I attended the playoff games played by the Altona Maroons Bantam I team. They did good and won both home games. Now they have to play in Oakville and Carmen. Good luck, guys.
Progress report
My friends continue to supply me with puzzles and books which I make myself put on hold until the exercises are done. My goal for this month was to somehow get into the basement. Walking down at this point is not an option but I have a friend who became very good are going down the stairs on her bottom after a horse fell on her leg. I think that will be my mode of travel too. One of the screws in my left ankles seems to have a mind of its own and continues to push out but has now decided to go back in. This is not painful but I hope it stays there.
Before my accident I was quite a sweets lover but for some strange reason this has changed. I used to tell my grandchildren that I didn't have sweet tooth and I needed enough candy to fill all my sweet teeth. Gabby the granddaughter who loves candy too, totally understood this comment and would laugh and bring me a big bag of sour peach candy for the arena canteen.
Now I crave vegetable,s any vegetables. Bring me cucumbers, carrots, celery or tomatoes; this in now my snack food. I think this is a good thing as I'm not as active as I once was and it helped tide me over watching all the Olympic competitions.
