Shopping in Airdrie

Last weekend Nathan and I decided to boycott Market Mall and went shopping in Airdrie instead. It was great. It may be a city, but it's still got that small town feel to it. We got everything that we went for, plus a free Tuborg beer tray! Yea for Tuborg! Maybe the idea of a supermall in Balzac isn't so crazy after all.... I think I will definately go there instead of Market Mall, once it's built. It took us all of 15 minutes to get to Airdrie, so Balzac will be shorter than that. For all of you that don't know about the Balzac supermall, check it out here. Our office in Toronto is doing the mechanical.

In other news, I've been feeling the pressure of living in a big city, the looming Christmas rush, and the feeling of being stuck in a rut. In an effort to combat such morose thoughts, I've decided to think about one beautiful and amazing thing a day. The thought for yesterday was: Hoar Frost. It's so pretty and I just love it. It gives everything a wonderful "wintery" look. Contemplate the wonders of hoar frost if you get a minute. Isn't it just incredible?

What a wonderful idea, Sheila, to think of one beautiful and lovely thing a day. And yes, hoar frost IS an amazing thing to look at. The beautiful thing for me today was receiving the first Christmas card of the year, from Mrs. Chessum in England.

Love, Mom
