Tell Me Something Good

October 11, 2016 By Lena 33 Comments

Hello, wonderful friends!

If you’re like me – still in a food coma from Thanksgiving – you’ll forgive me for taking a pass on writing today. Truth is, I’ve got errands to run and appointments to keep, all while greeting the official return of fall (weather wise) in Ontario.

So, let’s play a game. Tell me something good! I want to know your good news today. I’ll begin: the Toronto Blue Jays are going to the American League Championship Series! If you stayed up on Sunday to watch 10 nail-biting innings of baseball, you weren’t alone: over 4,000,000 Canadians tuned in to watch the game. And now, we’ve got a few days to catch our breath before they move on to face the Cleveland Indians. You know what I’ll be doing this weekend!

Your turn! Leave a comment to tell me something good!

    Our puppy is now four months old, fully trained, will sleep up to 10 hours at night and loves to cuddle! She is so sweet!

    Was lucky enough to escape damage from Hurricane Matthew. Fingers crossed now on Nicole. I enjoyed watching the Blue Jays on Sunday night.

    Our snow has melted and it looks like fall instead of winter. It was a rough week here in the Rockies!

    I found out I won a small contest yesterday. I wasn’t the prize I was hoping for (it was the third prize instead of first prize) but beggars can’t be choosers. I’ll just keep trying for a first prize !
