I was going to do a “Wordless Wednesday” and just post this picture of my kids on their last day of Grade One and Two: But there is a reason I don’t do Wordless Wednesdays, and that is because I am much, much too wordy. I want to tell you all about the last day […]

How was your weekend? Normally my weekends are fairly uneventful, but this weekend was the exception to the rule. A while back, the CBC was having a fundraiser for the Calgary Food Bank, and my girlfriends and I managed to purchase an evening with local celebrity and food goddess extraordinaire Julie van Rosendaal, from Dinner […]

“I think you actually are under a lot of stress,” my friend said to me the other day, “But you just don’t want to complain about it because it’s princess-stress.” Exactly. Last night, Jake had a screaming nightmare, and I don’t know what you do when your kids wake you up in the middle of […]

Have you ever had one of those days where you are sad, but not for a particularly valid reason, and that lack of a valid reason makes you even more sad? That was me today. As I swept up the dust, again, I started to feel limp and wrung-out, with the thought of excessive noise […]

I swore I wouldn’t write another post about the renovation, and yet it consumes me, dear reader. My life is swallowed by the renovation, and the working around the contractor’s schedule, and the I need to choose a light fixture thinking that I have right now. I’m even boring myself. Be thankful you don’t need […]
