7 Month Hiatus – LIFE GETS IN THE WAY & BLOGGING PAYS THE PRICE!
OK, so my last blog was back in December when I was rambling on and on about a fallen tree and trying to explain why crayon's are never a good gift for a senior citizen. Jump forward to July, and between figuring out why puppy training in the coldest of winter days with snow up to …

Weddings, and Grad and Riding, oh my!
Hey folks, I'm here. Sorry, so much has been going on that I've totally ignored my blogging life. Hmm.. Where to begin... May seemed to come and go and I mean that! Father time is moving too fast for me. First, I had two weddings last month. One I wasn't really invited to, but …

Happy Day after #familyday my friends. Sadly for me, I spent it in bed.. but I won't complain! I'm better today and the sun is out and....ok sorry, it's not out, but I'm an optimist! Two of my three boys were not home anyway due to college and work, so the roast was put on …
31 Days In & My Crazy Observations!
Hi ya Peeps, First off, I promise I won't babble on about the Superbowl - I'll just say that I love Justin and his whole halftime extravaganza was perfection; Selfie kid was too cute, #superbowlselfie (leave him alone), and who cares if Pink had a lozenger in her mouth and had to fling it before she sang. She …

Fruitcakes and Snowflakes…and late breaking news!
Well, well, well now, hasn't it been a busy week. AND, it's only Wednesday. First off, I was busying myself with a little Cyber Monday shopping, (which I detest), but in the end, only opted for something crazy ridiculously expensive, which may end up being returned if my PPD (post purchase dissonance) kicks in! But, …

I’m Doing This! What was I thinking…
Hi Friends and Happy Hump Day... So, some news to share, and call me crazy, but I have decided to bite the bullet and take on the Enbridge Ride to Conquer Cancer in June, 2018. Don't get me wrong, this is one of the best fundraising events the Big Smoke puts on, riding over 220km in two …
BLOGIVERSARY and Bloggy Tidbits…
Oh Joy. I can finally celebrate something. I'm also over this horrible lingering 6 week nagging flu/cough/cold. Happy to report, I'm all better! I spent way too many days propped up with pillows and spent too much time reading and writing...and eating. My family can also now remove the sneeze guard from the kitchen counter. That thing was most …
Sicker than a dog…
Sorry peeps... I haven't been blogging lately, and I don't want my followers *wink* to think I've given up. I'm here, but trying to deal with this horrid lingering cough. It started out as a few sniffles, but over the weeks, (not kidding) turned into a raging smokers hack (I don't smoke), to where my co-workers were …
Bring on the Patio’s – Oakville Style
Although I do consider myself a rather happy person most days, this weather is killing me. Unless I'm under a blanket, lying horizontal on my couch with a cracking fire, I'm not digging it! And please, don't even get me started on what it's doing to my hair. (*insert princess emoji) I don't really bother 'prepping' it for work …
Writing 101 & Working Through The Fiscal…
With another Easter in the books, it's now time to focus on my last quarter. It seems as though I run my household like a business. I'm now in Q4 like my work family calendar, with April being the start. Most of April is being kind to us, with goodness coming in the form of sunshine, patios, …
Friday Facebook Reflections…
SO I'VE TAKEN THE LEAP back into "Facebook Land." Don't really know why, because I'm starting to regret it already. I'm feeling anxious. No word of a lie! I feel like my whole world and personal bits are out there on display. Silly I know. I was a full on dedicated "Facebooker" many moons ago (well 2007 …
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 …
