Walking In A Winter Wonderland

When I got up today I decided to check the weather before I headed out for a mid-morning appointment, and it said there was no snow in the forecast- YAY – and the temperature would be a crisp -26 Celcius with the windchill taken into account – WTF? Anyway, out I went and I was surprised to find … Continue reading Walking In A Winter Wonderland →

Everything I Needed To Know In 2015 I Learned On Facebook – Part 2

Almost all people I know have experienced loss in their lives – could be the death of a parent, a spouse, a child, a sibling or a friend.

Like love, loss has the power … Continue reading Everything I Needed To Know In 2015 I Learned On Facebook – Part 2 →

The ‘Groundhog Days’ of December

I went to bed last night filled with such good intentions for today. I would accomplish SO MUCH and check off SO MANY items on the seemingly ever-growing list of items that need checking off this month. I would be happy because I caught up on household chores and holiday preparations and by the end of … Continue reading The ‘Groundhog Days’ of December →

Foto Friday – Heading to Quispamsis

As some of you will know from my last complaning post, I’ve been under-the-weather for the last ten days or so, and am only now beginning to function like a more-or-less normal human being. My energy level is still in the minus numbers and I’m still coughing and blowing my nose, but at least I […]

The Dreaded Cold/Flu Season Has Struck

I’ve been under the weather this past week – well, for almost an entire week. Feels like a month, though. I’ve had chills, aches, a sore throat that made it seem as if I had razor blades stuck there every time I swallowed, a voice that wasn’t a voice but instead was barely a croak, […]

Foto Friday: Walking Journey – Moncton, New Brunswick

Last week I wrote about my daily walking routine – how I walk outdoors when the weather is conducive to that and indoors when it isn’t. I mentioned that I use a Fitbit – there are other electronic tracking devices on the market and I only mention Fitbit because it is the one I use […]

Wordsfall 2015: The Invisible Woman

*Note: I wrote this post originally as a self-indulgent therapy session that I doubted I would ever publish, because I know it reveals me to be a whiner who should attempt to fix situations she is unhappy with but doesn’t, choosing instead to stand back, reflect on them and on what is lacking in her […]

Foto Friday – Short Trip to British Columbia, Canada

I was going through my pictures and came across a few from a trip I took to British Columbia this summer to visit an old friend, so thought I’d share them on today’s Foto Friday post. For those of you not familiar with Canada’s geography, British Columbia is on the west coast of our country […]

When Love Was Young

Forty-three years ago today I married Gary Morice, my childhood sweetheart, my soulmate, the man of my dreams. On Friday evening, Nov 10, 1972, at 7:30 pm, in front of family and friends, I walked down the aisle to join this man that I loved with all my heart, and when he died in December of 2009 […]
