Where The Heck Is She?

Hello, amazing blogging pals! I have once again vanished. I had planned to be back by now but I’m once again in the abyss of dysfunctionality. Do you remember this story of deception? It was very painful, but eventually I managed to begin healing and moving forward. What else was there to do? Eventually you have to accept and let go. And just when I started feeling whole, it’s time to settle my mother’s estate. Things are already off to a stressful start even though they shouldn’t be. This process shouldn't be as complicated as it's turning out to be. I have this sinking feeling that this story is even worse than I originally thought. I’m hoping I’m wrong, but when trust is compromised, that’s where your mind goes. You’re literally always watching your back. To top it all off, there is no liquidator/executor, which makes things even more stressful. That’s a looooong story.

Anyhow, I just wanted to share a post and let you know that I’m alive and well. And that I miss you all very much. I will definitely be back to blogging at some point but I just don’t know when. This business with the estate is exhausting and nerve-wracking, but I nonetheless need to commit to it, focus on handling it responsibly and simply hope for the best. I'll be grateful when this is all over and I can just go on with my life. That's all for now...

Sending you all love! I hope to see you soon.

Time For A Break!

Happy August, blogging pals. I hope you're all doing well. We're getting ready to tackle some work  outdoors for our home, so I'm going to take a few weeks off and get busy. Have an amazing rest of the month, and be well and happy. I will see you in September.

Happy new week, friends! How are you all doing? What's up in your area? We are experiencing heat, humidity and a lot of heavy rainfalls. We've even had hail a few times. The weather this summer has been weird and sometimes nasty. In addition to all the above, wildfires in northern Ontario have affected air quality here. Ah, climate change... I can't imagine what it'll be like years from now on this planet.

So...enough of that. Wednesday I spent the day with my daughter in my hometown. I drove over in the morning and picked her up from her place. We went for an early lunch, visited the bookstore and then had some coffee and dessert. I hadn't seen her for ages and you can imagine how thrilled I was to spend that time with her. I went home exhausted from all that socializing, something I'm not used to, but it was a good type of exhaustion!

Aside from that, all else remains the same. The most amazing man in the world and I have work to do outside but we're waiting for the heat and humidity to goooo awaaaaay. We're keeping busy in other ways and biding our time until we can finally get out there.

No, what's up with you? Share in the comments and enjoy all the funny stuff! Have a wonderful week ahead.

Happy new week, everyone! I'm back. I missed last week's post. The week got away from me and I just never got around to it. But here I am to make you all smile again! What would you do without me?

How are you all doing. What are you up to? What's going on in your part of the world? Pretty quiet on our end, which I'm grateful for. We've been watching the series Atypical for the past little while and we're really enjoying it. Has anyone seen it? Share you news in the comments and tell me what's happening on your end.

Nothing else to report at this time, so I'll get right to the funny stuff. Enjoy, blogging pals, and have a wonderful week ahead!

Happy new week, friends! How are you all doing? How was your weekend? What are you up to these days? Not much to add on my end. The week just flew by and so did the weekend. We are in stage two of re-opening and my hometown is much further along. Very soon I'll be contacting loved ones that I haven't seen in the longest time and book dates to get together. I can't wait to see them!

Sadly, no physical changes for me or the most amazing man after our second vaccines. At least so far. There are no signs of extra appendages sprouting and we haven't turned into electromagnetic force fields. I guess we're just going to have to give up the dream of being superhumans and settle for just being ordinary. *sigh*

In entertainment, we are presently watching Black Earth Rising on Netflix. It's a limited series that is fictional but it does touch upon real events of the Rwandan genocide. It's quite well done. And in books, I keep bouncing around from one to another. I can't seem to settle down with one and totally immerse myself. I've read so many books throughout my life that it's difficult to find something that truly captures my attention. Anyone else have this problem? Any book recommendations?

Okay, let's get to what you're really here for...to laugh! Enjoy the images below and have a wonderful week ahead!
