Corners

I’ve never know how to hold you properly fold you, in my arms. You are so much bigger than me with such strength, and yet easily twisted and bent. I struggle and start again, and then again but get nowhere. I can see where you naturally flow but try as I might you slip […]

Too Little Time Left

Bark! Bark! Bark! The Garbage Man is coming! The Garbage Man is coming! Must get outside to greet, greet greet… Stumbling over his back feet running to the door…Bark Bark Bark! More like Huff Huff Huff as he shows his age, beautiful golden fur shedding in his wake. I just vacuumed for goodness sake! […]

Back From “Vacation”

I’ve just returned from a week long “vacation”; is it a vacation if you don’t have formal employment? The feeling when I returned was different. In the past, the approach to the Monday morning after a vacation would be a mixed bag of emotions; dread at having to get up early, excitement to see the […]

Million Dollar Views

A few weeks ago a group of us played golf at a local city course, it has always amazed me that this plot of land hasn’t been sold to the highest bidder and then covered in condos. These are million dollar views; downtown, the river and blue sky as far as the eye can see. […]

Fantasy Clothes

I’m a fan of apocalyptic books, TV shows and movies, things like Swan Song, The Stand, Mad Max (the original), Road Warrior, Z Nation, Terminator and The 100 on Netflix. It’s that show, The 100, that prompted this post. Most of the scenarios are the same: the world has been devastated and there is usually […]

All We Need is Music, Sweet Music…

Quote 3 of 3 Calling out around the world Are you ready for a brand new beat Summer’s here and the time is right For dancing in the street Okay, not so much of a quote as a rally cry! Don’t waste the birdsong, the radio playing in the car next you at the traffic […]

Keep Dancing….

Dancing Quote 2 of 3: “And those who were seen dancing were thought to be insane by those who could not hear the music.” ― Friedrich Nietzsche I hope everyone accepted Friday’s challenge and had their own impromptu dance party this weekend, we had several, including one while playing golf…Always keep your ears open, there is […]

Dance Baby Dance

I read a blog today that really resonated with me, to such a degree that I’m setting aside my planned post in it’s honour. I was also challenged by Simon Wood to do 3 quotes over 3 days. This was the second challenge quote, the first one came in when I was on holidays and […]

Just A Little Seed

There are moments in life that are marked, something happens that sets that moment in stone, cements it in your memory, your heart. Sometimes it’s a sad thing, sometimes it’s a change you didn’t see coming, sometimes it’s this…. The first time a plant you grew from seed, flowers. It took two years and was […]

Bit Of A Ramble….

I have no idea where this week went….did you realize it’s already FRIDAY!? Even looking at my calendar isn’t helpful; I went to a presentation on Tuesday and a meeting to review my resume on Wednesday, visited with friends on Thursday, walked the dog and went to the gym (once) but it’s not like those […]
