It's Friday!

I started the day off with my usual walk. It wasn't quite as cold today - still below freezing when I started out - but it warmed up - and the sun was shining! I have to say that certainly makes you feel a bit brighter when the sun is shining! As my friend and I were starting off our walk we saw this beautiful sunrise through the trees. 


What a wonderful colourful way to start the morning!

I feel as though I got quite a bit done today. I didn't get a lot of sleep last night (again) and woke up early. As I was up early I was looking for a certain pair of socks and ended up pulling out two drawers and sorting through them. I got rid of a whole lot of things! It wasn't on my list, but it was nice to get something of mine sorted. I did manage to look through the things I've already bought and have found that I bought 2 of the same game for my son! I will have to take one back. Sigh. A good reason why I should probably write more lists! 

I did get to my craft room and made a couple of small boxes. I am waiting for better light to take photos of them. By the time I finished making them it was quite dark - a hazard of the shorter days. I have put a ring light on my wish list so perhaps I might get one. I think that would help with the lighting trouble. 

Tomorrow will be quite busy. Depending on the weather - we're due wind and rain - we might go out for a quick walk or a trip to the lakeshore if the waves are right. Husband wants to get his booster jab. They are accepting walk-in appointments. We have to pick up an order for bird seed that is finally ready and make a stop at the post office, probably a trip to get some food too. I also want to get back into my craft room if possible. I want to get some of daughter's presents wrapped. We are taking a long weekend visit to her over her birthday (19th) weekend and we will share our gifts then. 

Oh - one good thing about sorting out bits and pieces are found things you forgot you bought. Take these gift tags. I found them just in time for this year!

    1. They really are! Unfortunately my house doesn't have a great one, but when I get to my park for a walk I can sometimes see a nice one through the trees!

  2. Wow, that sunset is truly beautiful. Well captured!

    It sounds like you had a productive day with sorting through the drawers and the gifts as well as spending some time in the craft room. x

    1. I try not to buy things too far in advance as I usually forget where I put them - though I'm sure I put them in a safe place lol

  4. That is such a gorgeous sunrise! I don't have a view of the sunrise from my house, but, I get to see some beautiful sunsets! How nice that you found the gift tags in time for this Christmas! I'm glad you will be getting to see your daughter next weekend. Please wish her a happy birthday from me! I believe she is the same age as my daughter, if I recall correctly! If so, she will be turning 28?
