Something for me this holiday
If you’ve been here a while or read back, you may be aware that I was trying to accomplish fifty things before I turned fifty. Because life got lifey, it became 50 things before the end of my fiftieth year. Well, that all got blown to hell with 2026 exploding onto the scene with all…

The most important thing to me right (right now)
During my yoga teacher training this weekend, we were learning about how to do chanting and mantras. Our facilitator share one with us, which is one I am familiar with from other courses, and while we meditating to it, she said ‘send healing out to your community, who ever that it’ and I was unable…

How we bring colour into our home
Following a similar thread as yesterday, I wanted to share some of the colour around our home during the dark, cold, and snowy days. This year, we have some new friends – a few friends from my Mom’s collections, including the “f**king” elves… Names such because my sister was forever putting the elves in compromising…

Ways to bring a little more light into your home
I am a little late today, but I had to wait until it was dark to write tonight’s post. Today, I wanted to share ways I (we) bring a little more light into our house in the dark days of winter. As we approach the day of the year that gives us the fewest hours…

I have big emotions, many of them, all at once. They spill over, generally in the form of tears, often sobs, and I lose all ability…

Three positive things in 2025
I am, or I try to be, a positive person. Glass half full kind of outlook. It can be easy to lose sight of that sometimes. Even with the gratitude practices and positive affirmations, when things don’t seem to being going the way you feel they should, it is hard to not be discouraged. But,…

Three people I had dinner with in 2025…
You never know when you last meal with someone will be. The night before Mom’s surgery, October 27, she wanted A&W. A Mama burger (with cheese) with fries, and a Sprite. We watched an episode of original Star Trek – Cloud Minders, I think. She ate the burger, half of the fries and only a…

One success this year…
The problem with doing reflection posts is eleven months is a long time to reflect upon… 2025 was not the most positive year for me or my family, and finding the good in what was largely a very difficult year is tough. There has been a lot of personal development for me – I started…
