The Zombie Apocalypse…

I'm on a truly bizarre thought train today. Even more bizarre than usual... It all started here: My friend shared this photo and said it depicted where she would be hiding in the event that zombies showed up all at once and decided to wreak havoc on all of us. This led me to all … Continue reading The Zombie Apocalypse…

Change Is Good, Isn’t It?

Those of you who know me in real life know that I am very attached to my quiet cup of coffee in the morning, outside with our dogs. It's time for reflection, appreciation, deep breathing. I wouldn't say I meditate, but it's pretty close some mornings. 🙂 Also, I'm Canadian. Well, we moved to the … Continue reading Change Is Good, Isn’t It?

The Art of Forgiveness and Letting Go…

Thanks to a friend of mine sharing an article today, I have been thinking of the above headline while tackling my Monday. The article was about Restorative Justice, and it was a huge leaping off point for me this morning. To read the article itself, here's the link: http://www.nytimes.com/2013/01/06/magazine/can-forgiveness-play-a-role-in-criminal-justice.html?pagewanted=all&_r=0 I was thinking about the parents … Continue reading The Art of Forgiveness and Letting Go…

The Key to Dental Hygiene…

Doesn't this sound like the most mundane of all blog posts? It's a misleading title, I'll grant you. I thought I would just give you all a window to the life we lead at home. Lara and I are pretty serious, driven people. We have a quirky sense of humour, both of us, and I … Continue reading The Key to Dental Hygiene…

The Gourmet Day…

I was in an uproar today. I had no idea what to cook for dinner. 🙂 I feel as though I've been having food cravings, just not for any specific food. It's been insanely puzzling. So, Lara and I put our heads together as to what sounded good. I stared at recipes for a while, … Continue reading The Gourmet Day…

Friday Philosophy…

I didn't even realize it was Friday, until I saw my Dad's "Friday Filosophy" blog post. 🙂 Tonight marks my daughter's very first school dance.  You all should be proud - I am actually allowing her to attend (and she wants to attend). Some thoughts for today, and every day for that matter: Only those … Continue reading Friday Philosophy…

A Day in Bed…

I started my day with a huge immune booster, right after I dropped off the kiddos.  A juice of granny smith apples, kale, spinach, and cucumber - just to help my body fight off this cold/flu.  I spent most of the day in bed.  When I was awake, I divided my time between reading The … Continue reading A Day in Bed…

Hail to the…Whaaatttt?!

We were decompressing with a little television around here, when a commercial came on today.  Truthfully, we were not really paying attention to the ads.  Other than Super Bowl, I mostly ignore commercials. The ending of this commercial, however, had Lara and I, jaws dropped, staring blankly at the television. All Hail the V. Pretty … Continue reading Hail to the…Whaaatttt?!
