Christmas, Retirement, the Cold and more

Well we went to a pre-retirement seminar on Monday, it was an all day affair and we learned alot about the different programs we can apply for, which can mean more monthly cash in our pockets which sounds good to us. Kath is now in countdown mode, it will come quick.

 

It's been quite cold here for the last week, in the -30C range, so I haven't been venturing out much but have managed to get nine dozen shortbread done. It's December 17th. and we're ready for Christmas, the first time I can ever remember that we don't have to run around like loonies on Dec.24 to pickup the last gift, I like it ;)

 

I'm feeling alittle sore, and am not happy to feel this way. I try not to worry Kath, so if I can take a couple of Tylenol and get through the day I'll do it, I have other things I can take but prefer not to take them.

I wonder if others feel the same way, as for me I don't like the buzzed feeling.

I'm just like you. I have some meds that either make you feel buzzed or that can make you sleep 10-14 hours non-stop. Cold weather especially makes me sore; however, our weather is nothing compared to yours. We'll be glad to let you keep the Canadian weather.

 

Countdown for your wife is exciting.

Stu,

 

I do the extra strength tylenol for pain or on occasion ibuprofen. I don't like the buzzed feeling either and my doctor won't prescribe anything. The cold weather afffects me as well.

 

What a great feeling it is huh to be all ready for Christmas. We've got wrapping to do. My kiddo will do the family gifts versus me doing them one-handed. I will do hers - she's used to me post endeavors lol.

 

P.S. I'm still waiting for my email with the shortbread attachments :D
