It's a chilly-fall-grey sky kind of day today, but I am determined to enjoy it. I took my dog for a walk this morning and instead of going through my to do list or conversations I had had or how my kids behaved this morning, I looked at the droplets of water on each blade … Continue reading A Sunny Outlook on a Gloomy Day
It can only go up from here. School blues.
Our boys' school year began with no masks and a hint of normalcy to go with it. My hubby returned to his office at work where he teaches as a chemistry prof and of course what happens during this period of transition? I hit a wall with my bipolar. Definitely not normalcy. I have been … Continue reading It can only go up from here. School blues.
Update and New Layout, But Not Without Ariel!
New look for the website, same Ariel photos though, because... well... I just love her! I'm just relaxing listening to an old playlist I put together a few years ago. I had forgotten about some of these songs. It's amazing how music can bring such comfort. It's like putting on a pair of your favourite … Continue reading Update and New Layout, But Not Without Ariel!
A Calm Over the Christmas Season
I selected the wrong address filler on 4 of my Christmas parcels from Walmart to an address that doesn't exist and somehow one of them was delivered and received. It's an apartment just down the street so I ran down to double check that it wasn't in the lobby but it was no where to … Continue reading A Calm Over the Christmas Season
We’re moving! (plus a little hair experiment)
I took some time off my blog to focus on my health. In the mean time, we found out that we will, in fact, be moving to Ottawa. With our listing to come out as early as March 1st, there are many things to get done around the house. In the first week I found … Continue reading We’re moving! (plus a little hair experiment)
There’s something about the Fall
There's something about the Fall that just makes me want to have new beginnings. I began my blog in September of last year, life got crazy but again, heading back into that crisp cool time of year, I find myself yearning to come back to what is important to me. I left off my last … Continue reading There’s something about the Fall
Keep on keeping on…
Has anyone ever mentioned it's tough to keep a regular blog going with bipolar disorder? There are periods of time I'm on my game, everything is great and I can regularly post interesting (at least I think so) blog entries but when I get knocked out for a period of time, it takes me a … Continue reading Keep on keeping on…
A Book Here, A Book There…
Do you read multiple books at a time? Do you forget where you left off sometimes because your little LO pulls bookmarks out of your books? Do you end up reading parts of your book 3-4 times before you realize you already read that part 3-4 times? This is the story of my life for … Continue reading A Book Here, A Book There…
And Cream Cheese Frosting for the Win!
Wow! Are we really nearing the end of March? Where have I been this month? Well, let me tell you, we got hit with sickness AGAIN! My little JK man missed another week of school and was stuck at home coughing up a phlegmy storm with his younger brother. Then it was March Break! How … Continue reading And Cream Cheese Frosting for the Win!
Bell Let’s Talk Awareness Campaign
It can feel so restrictive when you have a blog with specific topics allocated for your writing. Maybe today I want to branch out? Is my "Life" category too generic? I've incorporated my faith in the Life category which you may have noticed, but right now I feel like writing something different. I could talk … Continue reading Bell Let’s Talk Awareness Campaign
