A mild December day

Happy Sunday to all!  What a beautiful, mild and sunny day we're having.  It's hard to believe that this is December.  Not a flake of snow, none in the forecast for a while it seems.  Gotta love it, although I feel for the snow resorts and for those who truly enjoy the snow.  As for us, we are quite happy with this kind of weather, so is Cooper as he doesn't have to wear his booties for his walks.  

All is good with us and we had a good week.  On the house front, we had two showings, back to back.  I was always hoping for at least one showing during the holiday season so that we could show our house in all its Christmas glory.  And so we did.  We even had the Christmas music playing in the background.  Not sure if anything will come out of the showings but at least the interest is still out there, especially at this time of year.  We do expect that Spring will bring a lot more activity.  In the meantime, we are happy to have the luxury of time on our side.  As such, we have given a lot of thought to where we want to move next.  We originally thought about Cobourg but we have decided on Burlington instead.  This is where we lived some 31 years ago.  We like the area,  we know quite a few people that live in the west end,  it is close enough to Toronto and to many other smaller cities,  and it is also close to the Niagara region which we love.  It's all good.

I got some baking done yesterday and froze most of it.  I have more to do this afternoon and in the next few days.  We plan on bringing some to my parents when we go home in a few weeks and we also want to give some to Russell's aunt.  

Our workouts are going well.  We have renewed out personal training sessions at the gym for another six months.  I can now do three chin ups in a row.  Russell can do more.....lucky him.  

That's it for my blog this week.  We will have lunch now, then go for a walk with the Coop. When we come back, I will bake and the house will smell yummy.  I leave you with some pictures that Russell took of some of our Christmas decorations as well as a photo of the wreath we ordered for Russell's parents.  We will visit them when we go home.  Oh, by the way, the deer found our outdoor Christmas tree and started nibbling at it.  

Have a great everyone!
