The other day I received a message from an elderly client of mine asking me to call him back because he was worried he might have missed a call from me. I called him back to ask what I could do for him but there was nothing he needed. He was just concerned I may …
Watching game six of the Golden Nights – Canadiens playoff series and trying to keep my heart rate under control. Honestly, I find watching games with this much at stake to be too stressful. My favourite memories of me and my dad in the 1970s are of the two of us watching his small, portable …
Last night, I reluctantly signed out of my early morning online class after making a mental list of all I had to do at the office today. It’s never a good sign when your to-do list gives you heart palpitations as you lay your head down to sleep. A quarter dose of a quick-dissolve gravol …
I’ve been neglecting my creative side of late, partly because of COVID fatigue but also, if I’m honest, because I spend an awful lot of time supporting (and enjoying, I might add) other people’s creations, including my husband’s. While I’m not talented enough to earn a living through my hobbies, I need to practice them …
I’ve got a stye in my eyeI wishit were pie If you don’t have time to soak in a tub, sit still for five minutes with a wet, warm compress on your eye and a soundtrack of ocean waves playing in the background. We met a young husky mix with one blue eye and one …
Our healthcare service is moving to a new site after 21 years at the old one. I woke up teary-eyed and emotional this morning. It’s not the change in building (though the new one is much further from the community we serve) that bothers so much as the fact that the new site has an …
My husband just asked why I was watching Herman Munster videos on YouTube. Truthfully, I was looking for one of Herman’s epic foot stomping scenes to validate that Sunday before Monday feeling of not wanting to go to work tomorrow. “I don’t wanna, I don’t wanna, I don’t wanna!” A sore hip has put a …
So I just bought a domain name thinking it would inspire me to write more blog entries. Here goes. Actually, I bought two domain names: I purchased the second one after making a big spelling boo boo on the first one. I’ll blame that on my cataracts. Apparently I have to wait five days before …
I went sports bra shopping today. Not because the ones I wear aren’t doing the job. Rather, I wouldn’t want to be caught dead in one if I were in an accident and somebody had to perform CPR or something. Anyone who knows me well knows well enough how much I hate clothes shopping and …
There are some bucket list items you never think about listing until you’ve actually crossed them off your list. Like the one one I put a line through today: leaping from a moving vehicle. I’ve thought about what I would do plenty of times if for example my brakes suddenly failed in between intersections on …
