I believe in the inherent good in all Canadians. I believe that we all want what is best. I believe we all have the right to our opinion. We are all in this together no matter what side you are on. But it is becoming very uncomfortable. There seems to be a fork in the... Continue Reading →

I enter 2022 broken…..again….. This time it’s ALL gone. My marriage ended in the fall. I moved out of our ‘home’ in November. Got an apartment in the ‘city’.

But to actually sit down at the computer and write… well I don’t know; I just haven’t been able to.... Continue Reading →

I turned 45 last week. I took the day off work to be alone. Reflect and set new goals for myself, even though I woke up feeling anxious, as I always do on my birthday. So, to combat the feeling of dread that was taking over my heart, I decided it was best to get... Continue Reading →
