Hugh McRae Park


I could sit at this spot for hours and daydream.... or write.... or meditate... and just enjoy the beauty...


Nature surrounds us, from parks and backyards to streets and alleyways. Next time you go out for a walk, tread gently and remember that we are both inhabitants and stewards of nature in our neighbourhoods."

my delete button :-)


Yes, I am totally appreciating and loving my delete button.  With so many emails, files, pictures... and well, just, STUFF that is saved on the computer there is a certain sense of ahhhh-ness and relief that comes with clearing out space where I can.  So, yay for the delete button!!!

singing fun!

10, 15 and even 20 years ago if you had told me I would one day be writing my own songs, working on & practicing my very own set list in preparation to share the music with others, I would've said, "Yeah, right!!!  You're crazy!  What are you smoking?!"  It's such a testament to life and being open to its infinite possibilities... and also, leaving yourself open to being ALL that you are meant to be, which in my case, has obviously been shown to me to be even more than what I envisioned my life to be.  But BE OPEN because in that openness is a delicious adventure awaiting you.  So, that's what I'm thankful for today... Openness, Creativity and Singing!!!!!

"I want to be singing to everybody, and I want everybody to think that I'm singing to them. Guys, girls and everyone in between."

time to read


I LOVE TO READ!!!  I mostly love to read something that I can hold in my hands whether it be a book, a magazine... heck, it could even be an interesting brochure or pamphlet that sparks my interest and maybe even has some cool & colorful graphics!  So, when I have an opportunity to be OFF the computer and sitting outside with the warm breeze blowing and reading... well, just color me HAPPY!!

Office Space


With so many places offering free wi-fi these days, it allows me to enjoy office days away from my home office.  I so appreciate the opportunity to enjoy the different types of scenery at each locale and, well, it's great fun to people watch, too!!  Today, I'm enjoying office time at the new Starbucks and doing some blogging.

Choose a job you love, and you will never have to work a day in your life.
