I was able to take to the skies today, despite the high winds. I bought a new headset at the Aviation Expo last weekend, so I needed to test it out. Chuck and I are going to Minnesota this weekend, so no flying for moi. The winds were 25 knots gusting 30 knots. I was blowin’ in the wind – literally! Fortunately, my new headset worked great!
When I got home, I decided to try and create a broccoli soup from a recipe a friend from work gave me. I am surprised and impressed with her faith in me and my cooking skills (or lack thereof). I was shocked that I was actually able to create an edible dish from scratch! Go me! The soup was yumalicious and very healthy. I feel so domesticated.
I’m really looking forward to going to Minnesota this weekend. Chuck and I will be heading to Toronto tomorrow and stay overnight near the airport. Our flight leaves around 9:30 Friday morning. We’re going to the Mall of America there. It’s huge! I’ll also be trying out the flight simulator . I think the weekend will be a great get-away for both of us.
A friend from work sent me this picture after spotting the town on the way to her property up North:

Sounds like a WONDERFUL place!
Symptoms for today: Just feeling a little drained, but nothing major. I had some aches in my left hand during the morning, but nothing to write home about.
