Hi Gram! Can you believe it? Another beautiful day full of memories! I woke this morning and did my usual puzzles, journaling, and breakfast. I woke a lot last night as my body got over the jet lag, but I’m pretty alert today. I headed over to join a post-WWII and communism walking tour this…

Hi Gram!I had a good sleep last night. The bed was comfortable with a cool breeze blowing in the window. I’ve learned to pack my own pillow as I travel. It’s bulky, but I’ve found that it’s worth the familiarity and comfort. I woke with my alarm, had a small breakfast, and did my morning…

Hi Gram! I made it to Prague! I didn’t sleep well on the plane last night. I was flying premium economy and was tired, so the extra legroom and exhaustion should have had me dozing off right away, but that wasn’t how it went down. I got a couple hours of sleep and got to…

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…
