    Writing for me and Mom in December

    Since October didn’t quite go as planned, and I need something to keep my brain busy, I am going to try and write again every day in December. I do have all kinds of things going on, but I need something that will keep me distracted, if that makes sense. It is a busy month…

    The day my mother died…

    No, this isn’t the song about The Day the Music Died, although she liked that song & she liked Buddy Holly. She did sport a beehive and had black rimmed cat glasses at one point in time (I’ll get the pictures and share them at a later date), she was in her late seventies, she…

    October Journal Challenge: What is failure?

    I had plans for this month. More or less. It had been my intention to write every day this month. I had an outline of what I was going to write about each and every day – a small prompting idea to keep on task and focused, something to share, not always a big idea,…

    October Journal Challenge: Happiest Moment of the Day

    One of my yoga teachers says things that happen have no traction if you don’t give them a story. Boys and girls, today was all about ‘things that happen’ and as much as I didn’t want to give them a story, some days, you need to succumb to the story… It all started yesterday. If…

    October Journal Challenge: One thing to do (just for me) tomorrow

    I used to really struggle with this. Once upon a time, some 15 years ago, I made a post on Facebook about how, during a day off, I spent a rare day off having a long, hot bath, painting my toes, and just relaxing. I lamented that I probably should have been doing housework –…

    October Journal Challenge: Opportunities ahead for me

    What do I see ahead for me? I think it depends on the context and I am a big believer in worrying about jinxing myself! Lots of people believe we can manifest things. In fact, one of my ‘homework’ assignments this week was to lookup Ester (Abraham) Hicks, who is an American ‘motivational’ speaker. She…

    October Journal Challenge: Weekend Wrap up

    I haven’t written in a few days, and while my intent was to write every day, I had to honour my brain. I sat down to write Friday and my selected topic (something interesting I’d noticed) and nothing seemed interesting (other than people’s bad driving habits). Saturday was things I was excited about for the…

    October Journal Challenge: Ways I’ve shown kindness or empathy recently

    While I will occasionally pay it forward and pay for someone’s coffee in the drive thru lineup, I haven’t done that in a while. And while I know there are ways to give that help more, I do give to the local unhoused who ask for change. We also support our local foodbank and shelters…

    October Journal Challenge: Ways I’ve stepped out of my comfort zone (lately)

    Wellllllll… Let’s just start by saying I’ve taken on way more than I can chew. I feel like I’ve been running non-stop for days and I am not catching up. I did my Reiki master training in August – I am a Reiki master, who needs to seriously buckle down and practice! I started my…

    October Journal Challenge: Something that made me smile today

    I wanted this to be something meaningful, so all day, I waited. Waited for something to make me break wide with smile. No pressure, right? I had some homework to catch up on and while there were some ‘aha’ moments, and moments of realization, nothing made me smile wide. Facebook memories were cute, as were…
