Random stuff, reflections on the meaning of life and death, humour, self-deprecation, a bit of bad poetry.
Updates to our electrical panel to avoid a catastrophe.
I am currently reading Margaret Atwood’s latest tome: Book of Lives: A Memoir of Sorts, and absolutely loving it. The details she offers in this autobiography are mind-boggling considering I barely remember what I did on the weekend. For example, she recalls her high school home economics classes including her experience directing and acting in …
I have decided to do a month of daily blog entries, each a minimum of 150 words. The reasoning for the word limit is twofold: 1. To not place too much pressure on my low-libido creativity. 2. To lower expectations of the reader. Visiting my mother at her senior’s residence this past weekend, I quizzed …
My dang fridge won’t die. I’ve had this Amana fridge since I first moved out of my parents’ house in 1988. At the time, I paid $400 each for four appliances that came with the flat: fridge, stove, washer and drier. To my knowledge, the only appliance of that set to actually conk out over …
I took my 89 year mother to the dental hygienist today, anticipating some kind of fall-out, considering recommendations made last visit have not been followed. My mother has dementia and Parkinson’s disease and has been living in a private residence for the past two years plus eight months. As for her cognitive status, I would …
I had a dream last night that came back to me like a jolt halfway through my first cup of coffee this morning. Like many people, I find it nearly impossible to remember my dreams and the ones I do recall are those that have been rudely interrupted by either my alarm clock or the …

What I loved most about Lou, apart from her professionalism and great sense of humour (she once nicknamed my hair « the planet ») was her pragmatism and consistency. She listened …
Today, a client of mine with neurological deficits affecting her balance and coordination reiterated her need for exercises to improve her balance. She pulled out a publication for seniors, L’âge d’or (The Golden Age), and showed me a page she had dog-eared: a grey-haired senior stretching her quads in the standing position, one hand on …
I’ve received two weird facebook comments in as many days from random people asking me to add them as friends. The most recent one was in response to a YouTube video link of a cover my husband and I recorded, from some dude named Ericus Mandy: « i need to listen to this song, i …
My husband and I tried this exercise where each of us would contribute a line in an effort to write a story. We did it twice and ended both stories when it was obvious they had died a natural death. 🙄 Story #1 I don’t know why the number 12 just popped into my mind. …
Books, games, music, and life — filtered through the mind of a writer, drummer, and philosopher who thinks too deeply about all of it. If it moves something in your chest, I'm interested.
