An end...

We are yet at the end of another year. For me this year didn't work out as I had planned. But then again, no year really works out that way. The gardens did not do well at all at the house or the farm. They just, well I really don't know. All I can do is try again and see what works.

Something new that has been started is a new eating plan. The food is Asain, primarily which means we head into Philadelphia to do our shopping. The Italian Market and Chinatown allow us to do our shopping at a much better price than here at home. Plus we have the adventure of being out in the city.

Also for this Christmas, we have received Fitbits to help keep us on track. Due to timing when we went into New York for our Christmas trip the tree was not yet lit. So we decided to go in Yesterday to see the tree and we headed down to Chinatown and did our shopping there.

When we got all done and home we checked to see how much we walked. Realizing when we head into the city, walking 10 miles is not unheard of for us. It actually turns out that I walked 14 miles and Ed walked 15 miles. The only thing we can think of is he takes an extra step to keep up with me. A very interesting unexpected experiment.

This year, as every year has it's challenges, not as many as there could be. Enough that it is time to start a new. A blessing of letting go and saying goodbye to all that you need no more. An may I see you in a new light in the New Year.
