                                                                      Happy New Year 2018


Hi everyone. It's been a long time since I've been here to update you on what's going on. That is because I couldn't remember my password. Now I have a new one and I've made a note of it and put it in a safe place. Probably safe from everyone including myself. 

Life goes on and I'm another year older. We are still in the place we moved to in June 2016. Like everywhere you live, it has it's pros and cons. The only cons is the amount of rent we pay and that the laundry room and bathroom are freezing cold. 

This has been a cold winter, even for Ontario. We haven't had minus temperatures like these for a few years. It's a good old fashioned winter, that's for sure. 

I had a rough year in 2017. Hubby turned 65 and our income dropped, which is no fun. We struggle month to month, like many Seniors in both Canada and the USA. Now they are charging us for our meds on top of everything else. At one time we got all of our meds for $2,00. Makes sense that our income decreased and the government now says we are high paid Senior and the prescriptions went up to $6.00 each. I made out a form in September and they put it back down to #2.00 and now I have to fill out another one. 

In August I had 3 mini strokes in 2 days. There are no lasting effects. I am blessed for that. 

Well, at least I got back in so now I can blog once in a while. We've been abundantly blessed over the Christmas season. 

Talk to you soon.
