This is the day to get some exercise in to get rid of the extra calories you put in yesterday. Maybe you will be putting on a lot of steps on your fitbit or whatever you use, while you shop. Get ready for the overeating days of the holidays! Try to do some over exercising to balance it out!
Get Faith
Revelations 22:1-9. This section talks about the river of life that flows from the throne of heaven with the tree of life on both sides. It gives you an image of a wonderful life of everything God has prepared for us. The study writer mentions that this being the last chapter in the Bible speaks of the world to come in comparison to Genesis chapter one, in the beginning of the Bible. God created a beautiful place for us to live and I wonder how terribly disappointed he was when we ruined it with sin. It made me cry to think that the heaven we had here on earth was spoiled with our desire for sin. But He has promised that garden of Eden to us in the next life, you just need to believe.
On this day
2002 - This reminds me the bathroom needs repainting. In 2002 Nicole and I plastered painted and re floored the entire house after they had worked on the bottom structure of the house. Now it looks like I might have had a leak in the roof over the bathroom. (My roof was redone two years ago) Not sure I have the energy to do it but I guess I will find it. Do you always have that "next thing" to do in your house? Just when you think you are done something else comes up? Apartmental rental is looking better all the time.
1863 - During the Civil War, the battle for Lookout Mountain began in Tennessee. This reminds me of my friend Sandy (who's birthday is today) in 1965 going to Tower Mountain in Tennessee with two local boys. Good times and good moon shine.

York Factory was a settlement and Hudson's Bay Company (HBC) factory (trading post) located on the southwestern shore of Hudson Bay in northeastern Manitoba, Canada at the mouth of the Hayes River, approximately 200 kilometres (120 mi) south-southeast of Churchill. York Factory was one of the first fur-trading posts established by the HBC, built in 1684 and used in that business for more than 270 years. The settlement was headquarters of the HBC's Northern Department from 1821 to 1873.[1] The complex was designated a National Historic Site of Canada in 1936.[2]
In 1957, the HBC closed it down. It has been owned by the Canadian government since 1968 and the site is now operated by Parks Canada. There is currently no one living permanently at York Factory, aside from a summer residence for Parks Canada staff and nearby seasonal hunting camps. The wooden structure at the park site dates from 1831 and is the oldest and largest wooden structure built on permafrost in Canada.
Enjoy the day! Make it memorable!
Happy Birthday to Sandy
