'Tis 7:04 a.m. on a beautiful day here in Fort McMurray.  Have a pot of soup started - tomatoes, onions and celery are stewing.  Have been outside - hence the reason I know it is beautiful outside - and shovelled - we had a bit of snow last night - wanted to get it shovelled before it got packed down - wore just my fleece indoor jacket - and am sweating like a horse - shovelled Marian's walks - and two of her neighbours front walk.  Little bit of exercise - always a good thing.  Now next thing on the list is to roll and cut and bake the shortbread dough that I made a couple of days ago.  So - off to the kitchen I go. 

Supposed to be at work at 10 a.m. today - will be interesting to see what I end up doing.
