I do not enjoy moving, and our townhouse feels empty. It feels, hollow. When we moved into our townhouse, it was the fifth time in three years. This does not include the times when we had to move the office for the company, and I had enough at that point. 8-1/2 years later, and we […]
Continue ReadingAs Canada Votes…
I think few elections I have been able to partake in, have left me feeling so hollow as this one. I have come away from this group of candidates, wondering who it is best NOT to vote, and I feel empty as a Canadian today. There are so many things which either the party itself […]

Hello Little One, In November of last year, we suffered a loss in our family. Your Great-Aunt Louise passed away, aged 95.

Last night was our annual company Christmas party. It was a great meal partnered with matching conversation with many. I always look forward to the event, which I always hope everyone enjoys.

Continue ReadingClarity and Inspiration
As I search for clarity, inspiration, direction and meaning, I find myself fighting my own thoughts, emotions, and mind. The last year has been a terrifying daydream gone wrong.
