Well, we're past Christmas Day and soon to be into the new year. I have quite a few good things to report... I have a warm home (hope it stays that way) in this 40 below deep freeze weather... I have a decent supply of food so don't have to get groceries right away.... I had my prescriptions delivered at no charge... on Christmas Day two people came over for food and festivities after we did at-home covid tests, and it was great to get together... I got a few nice presents... I gave a few nice presents... with no big family gatherings I've been calmer this December than usual, and I like it!
Thank you for sharing 'a few good things to report' Uni. I arrived and returned from my Christmas family destination all in one piece.
My one good thing is that I finally found a roofer willing to drive out here and fix some damage caused by our 140Km winds awhile back. Fingers crossed the warm weather really does come!

Today's good thing is I got to talk with a lady who was out snowshoeing in a green space near me. Now I'm wondering if I should try snowshoeing. However, I may be too lazy
I hope you get to do the hike AJ - snow makes the scenery so beautiful!
Today I had a lovely phone call with a friend I hadn't talked to in a long time. We'd been playing phone tag off and on for ages. One day you eventually win!
Today the temperature got to one degree above zero! Also I bought myself a pot of miniature daffodils to grow. I hope. I tend to kill plants off, but at least these are starting out cute!
Now on to today's good thing... I do some volunteer work that requires virtual meetings on a platform called Webex. Webex and I do not get along well! In fact, if Webex were a human I'd say they were holding a grudge against me. So this time, I tried getting onto the meeting via a different method, and voila! All was tickety-boo I did three trial runs last night and wrote myself a bunch of instructions. Will it work again next time? Tune in six weeks from now
Bad new is, I overwatered the daffodils,plus I couldn't give them enough sun,so they ended up dying. Good news is I enjoyed them while they lasted! Also good news, I've discovered a TV series that I really like. on DVD from the library. It's called "Kim's Convenience". I find it really funny, plus it's Canadian which is a bonus. I know it's been around for a while but I haven't had TV hookup for a few years so it's new to me. Nice light comedy with a touch of emotional cuteness, really good to watch a few episodes on a day when the world seems to be in love with unhappiness!
