Hi Gram!I’m off to Prague today! I woke up before my alarm, excited for my trip, but with a list of tasks to get done before I flew. I stripped the bed, did my puzzles and journal, and took a shower, then threw a load in the laundry and had my breakfast. I did a…

Hi Gram!What a day. I flew to Durham, NC this weekend to meet up with some friends for some FI Service Corps volunteering and to see Durham, the city where Tania lives. I woke up before my alarm – I haven’t been sleeping well lately – and headed out the door to get in some…

Hi Gram,I’m back in Ottawa today and I slept so good last night! I went to bed on time, I had a nice big bed to spread out, and I had my pillow. It was heaven! I slept in a little this morning, then got up and went for a walk. I emailed the management…

Hi Gram!I was sore when I woke up today – my legs were killing me. I don’t know what it was about those stairs yesterday, but we were all feeling it today. I took my time getting up out of bed, then went and walked the stairs here at the building. I got in 30…

Hi Gram! The things we do when we’re at camp… I love climbing stairs every day, and my friend Nicole loves climbing stairs too. She organized a group to head to the little town near camp that has a staircase leading up to one of the neighborhoods. So we all got up a little early,…

Hi gram! I woke up early without my alarm again today. I usually sleep so soundly and have trouble waking up but I’ve had a hard time sleeping for the past few days. I’m hoping this is just a spell and I’ll be back to my usual slumberland habits soon. I got up and went…

Hi Gram,I woke up this morning hot and tired and wrapped up in the sheets and blankets. It was my first night at Carolyn’s, and I think that I ate dinner too late then used too many blankets. Anyway, I got out of bed and went for my morning walk like usual. There’s a high…

Hi Gram!It was another fun day to be proud of. We stayed with Emma and Gabriel last night. I slept on the couch, which was surprisingly comfortable! I woke with my alarm at 6am, got dressed, and went for a walk. I thought about walking down to the river, but I ended up staying in…

Good morning, Gram!I slept well last night. I didn’t bring my pillow in from the car because I was afraid of forgetting it here, so I woke up with a stiff neck and regret, but I got up anyway. I’m worried about not staying fit as I travel, so I got right up out of…

Hi Gram, I haven’t updated here in a while. I take notes each evening of what happened in my day, but I never get back to them and write more detail. I’ve been working on creating posts for each month in 2025 and so far in 2026, but I’ve stalled out on that as well.…
