Rae-Anne, Goddess In Training. Sometime, long ago i started calling her GIT. She is my firstborn. We tried so hard for her. 24 induced hours and then surgery and there she was. I was a wife and and a Mom, everything I thought I was supposed to be. My opinion of what was best for …
What a difference today was. I think when my world gets muddy and I recognize it, something shifts. First I checked and my watchband collection fits my new Apple Watch. They were expensive and I love them, it’s a good thing. On my way to work I stopped to buy stamps and while at the …
Today was very full. I was up early to a beautiful cool morning so rode my bike to work. I was glad I wore my proper jacket for the slight chill. Cottage cheese and Creston blueberries made for a delicious breakfast at my desk. Even the hired tech guy can’t get my printer and Dymo …
There was nothing more important in my day than being the Tech person for Brent Carver’s memorial. I was honoured to be there and moved by the entire experience. it truly is remarkable that the family put together a perfect balance of adulation and good old family connection and humility. The entire thing leaves one …
I didn’t really want to wake up today so I migrated from bed to the couch for the morning. Continued watching The Umbrella Academy. Quite enjoying it. Jake and Emmy came over for the afternoon with her enjoying going in and out of the pool and trying to show us her skills. Had a nice …
I had the worst night in a long time, waking up like I was going to throw up but I did not. I felt the extraordinary burn of acid in my throat and barely felt like I was surviving so I got up, it was a terrible experience and I wonder at the cause. I …
I woke up way too early, so early I was at the theatre by 7 am. I had offered to bring totes to the tech room and clear stuff out of the way to enable the guys to put poly on the ceiling for now, preventing stuff from falling in the gear. took me just …
Spent part of the morning setting up appointments, applying for business license, which I realized I probably needed last month, and curating my Facebook page which I have had hidden since 2016! Strange that I did it on the eve of my 53rd birthday. I wonder what trauma… oh that was when I decided to …
Worked away this morning and had a lovely lunch as a treat from Viola. We both love Family Thai and had a nice visit followed by an introduction to a guy in the building looking for an admin assistant. She had a good long interview and I hope it goes well. She has the right …
First I will address my battle with expectations.. as an empath I can often sense the possibilities in a person rather than the life they are choosing to lead. I want to believe they have my best at heart as I have theirs but too often I am disappointed. This has been a lifelong struggle. …
My Facebook belies the fact that I am not the good old fashioned, worship her grandkids kind of Nana. once upon a time a conversation occurred where extended family were bemoaning the fact I had never had a ‘regular’ grandmother. It’s very true, I adored all three of my grandmas but they were each unusual …
My entire day was based on how I could get as much done as possible and avoid the heat. I was up relatively early and out with a bucket of soapy water on my knees scrubbing the algae away in the pool. I tried out a tool I bought last year and it was perfect …
I tried to get as much done as possible before it got too hot. by that I mean, aside from dishes and laundry I decided to trim my Willow and Maple and mow the lawn. By the time I was finished cleaning up inside and out, I was beat from the heat and couldn’t bring …
It’s not a day I genuinely look forward to. It is the anniversary of my Mom and sisters drowning when I was only 3 months old. I found out last night it is also the anniversary of Sean and Diane’s wedding and this pleases me. It is a positive reason to enjoy the day. Sadly …
July is usually a very busy month for me. It is heavy with June yearend files, GST filings, WCB reports and usually MusicFest. In its stead this year I set up my own office, took on new and previous clients and adjusted to the new norm. It was all going pretty smoothly but I ran …
I have had a very good day. I moved mountains of work from the to do to the done pile, got treated to take out lunch brought to me and a nice visit with a previous coworker and current friend, Varghese. I worked up to the time to leave and meet my son-in-law Ken for …

Awoke to swollen spots on my hands from many slivers off the pressure treated post I was using for leverage yesterday. I stopped by my daughters but she was showering for work so I arrived at the Groundfloor and asked the manager, a Mom of 4 if she could help. 7 or 8 pulled and …
