If we met for coffee, I’d immediately collapse into a chair in an exhausted heap (after first ordering the strongest cup of espresso possible!), because I’d need some time to recover after a tiring couple of weeks’ worth of organizing, cleaning, sorting, [continue reading…]
How appropriate (for me, anyway!) that today’s Photo Friday prompt is “Family” – after all, this is my last day of work before a vacation that includes a much-anticipated cross-country visit from my parents and sister! That said, since I just shared my [continue reading…]
A couple of weeks ago Eli Pacheco of Coach Daddy contacted me to ask if I’d like to join a group of bloggers in adding my thoughts to his upcoming 6 Word post for September. Yes, please! In order to participate, we were asked to consider and [continue reading…]
September is over, huh? Guess it must be time for me to post the second half of my pics from the Fat Mum Slim Photo A Day Challenge.
So as it turns out, this past week the saying “Leap, and the net will appear” kind of came true for me.
You might remember my announcement a couple of weeks ago that I’d [continue reading…]
Happy Autumn! No, September isn’t over quite yet (so yes, this post is a tad premature!), but since October happens to be when we Canadians celebrate Thanksgiving I thought it would be appropriate to get a jump start on a fresh month of [continue reading…]
Before we get started, take a quick look at the title of this post. Wow, right?! I was so surprised when I realized that this is my 60th Tangled Tuesday post – that little blogiversary kind of crept up on me when I wasn’t paying attention (guess I was too busy [continue reading…]
As this month marches on I am counting down with great anticipation to October when my parents and sister will be arriving in Windsor for a visit with us. Funnily enough, last year at this time I was counting down to a visit as well – but back then it was [continue reading…]
Midway through the month already, huh? It’s hard for me to wrap my head around this rather whirlwind-like passage of days, but I guess what it means is that it’s time for me to post the first half of my September photos for the Fat Mum Slim [continue reading…]
Let’s start off today’s Tangled Tuesday post with a bang, shall we? This past week Zentangle headquarters released some big, exciting, much-anticipated (by the tangling world, anyway!) news – the dates for their upcoming 2016 [continue reading…]
I can’t help it: I think our four cats are gorgeous, AND rather photogenic to boot. I also think they lend themselves well to black and white photography in particular, so for today’s Photo Friday challenge prompt of “Monochrome” I can’t resist inundating you [continue reading…]
Today’s post is all about some of the things that make me happy, thanks to my lovely friend Vidya Sury who tagged me in the “Eight Photos of Happiness” bloghop (thank you, Vidya!). Do check out her “Happiness is Homemade” post full of [continue reading…]
Happy Tangled Tuesday! I’ve had a full and busy week of tangling fun, but before I start rambling on about my own stuff I want to share a link to an excellent post written by Sandy Hunter, CZT and shared on her blog (tanglebucket). I’m passing it on to you [continue reading…]
Social media – particularly Facebook, I find – offers a unique window into the lives, feelings, and opinions of others. While everything one sees is (of course) based on how much each person chooses to share AND how openly accessible they’ve [continue reading…]
Welcome to a fresh new month and the start of a new season! I do apologize for being a little late in posting September’s Gratitude Linkup, but hope that won’t stop you from sharing your own gratitude lists throughout the rest of the month… because there’s [continue reading…]
We had one heck of a storm here yesterday – not the worst I’ve seen, but still bad enough, with thunder booming and lightning flashing (not to mention rain pouring and the occasional hail pelting) at various times throughout the afternoon, evening, and well into [continue reading…]
