Today we celebrate Valentines Day ~ The busiest day of the year for florists hands down...(although, close second is Mothers Day ~ Which I personally think should take top billing)... As you will read below from my latest article posted in Neighbours Of Olde Oakville....my better half and I have an agreement. Don't fuss!! I'm not a princess and don't …

Thank-you, Superbowl Sunday and… #amwriting (I think)…
So we are a week in from saying goodbye to our precious dog Lucy, but things are now slowly adjusting to a 'new normal.' She came to me in a dream, and I can't tell you how WONDERFUL it was. I was able to give her a big hug, and it felt sooo real. Then she was gone. Our family is taking it day by day …

A Dog with A Blog…
There are no easy words as I type this. Tears are flowing. Today we laid to rest our sweet dog Lucy after a short battle with Lymphoma. We were given two weeks, and she gave us 4 months. Every day was a treasure, a gift, and we spoiled her to the best of our abilities. No food was off limits. …
Holy Man, I’m Bushed!
Is it just me or are we all feeling the same way? I'm just spent! It's now 2017. How did that happen. We all partied like rock stars to ring in the new year, and I think somewhere in all the festivities, I signed a recording contract. Karaoke at it's finest! That being said, I think I have …
Champers and Laughing Through the January BLAHS!
Well, it's time to do a little "cele." You can grab a glass if you like! I've been talking about it for a while and seeing as Neighbours Jan. 2017 edition is out, I'm allowed to share the news. So many rules I must adhere to ~ don't want to get me fired the first month. With …

Angel Wings and funny things….Reality!
The countdown is on and I'm starting to panic. The reality is setting in that there are only 18 more shopping days, and typically by this time, I'm done, wrapped and enjoying a stogie by the fire. As I try to compile my lists, I'm getting slightly distracted by the Victoria Secret Angels on my tele. They are all so beautiful/puffy …
SISTERING…
Sometimes, I have no words... Please watch this ~ everyone should find their Sister Joist ~ I know I have!! xoxo
The One of a Kind Show ~ Girly Girl Time!
Hooray, it's December 1 ~ I love this month for obvious reasons, but of course, I start my Christmas rituals mid November! I buy One Of A Kind Tickets, find a few girlfriends that play well together, like to eat & laugh, and there you have it. A day made in heaven! I did however, ask …
A Tangled Mess ~ Good news for yours truly!
Most days I try to jot notes down in my personal journal if I hear something I want to remember. Then there can also be lags of time where I don't use it at all. I think we can thank our IPhones for this. I make good use of my "notes" app, and will use …

Life’s Regrets ~ if you have any…
We turned back our clocks this weekend... Gaining an hour feels so great. I accomplished so much by 10am, but was ready for a nap by noon! The time change got me thinking. Would it not be "interesting" if we could turn back the clock to another time, another day, another year. If you had a …
Post Hallo Chit Chat ~ A life of excuses…
I have excuses, and they are bloody good ones! Given we just closed off on another Halloween, I figured it was time to fess up! A few months back I decided to bite the bullet and join in on a slightly competitive, very fun and friendly weight loss challenge at work. I hesitated when people first approached …
My Potty Mouth…
Say it ain't so... Facebook announced yesterday they are going to create the "Dislike" button - My day is now complete. However, if I'm honest, I would much prefer this button on facebook. Don't get me wrong, I love all my Facebook friends, but some days, this would feel really good and release a lot …
Salty Contacts – I Hope You Dance…
It's the month of June, and so much is happening - life changing things that are making me fussy! Well, not really life changing, stay with me, but changes non the less.. On the eve of my youngest graduating from grade 8, I felt it was time to do a little blogging ... it's good …
The Art of the Selfie…from my ‘not’ perspective…
So, a little silliness to brighten your day - (it is February after all). I'm not too sure what the rules are on re-publishing another's post, but after my exhaustive research, I found that the ethical thing to do is ensure I give a shout out! So, please visit Esther Anderson and I promise you will not be disappointed. Her popularity is …

The good ol’ hockey game….
Happy Monday - I'm back from a hockey weekend and survived (almost) eating way too much grease both in and out of the hotel. I don't know about the rest of you hockey families, but whenever we have a hockey tournament, I look at it like a mini holiday. How sad is that! I DO travel, …
Day # 440 What’s Shakin’ in your World
Good Monday Morning friends, The sun is back out ~ we are getting spoiled. It's time to catch up, let's go! So one of my girlfriends reached out to me the other day asking what I had been up to. With coffee in hand, I starting blabbering about my day from sunrise to sunset. Sweet …
