    Deep Thoughts

    I’m struggling to come up with ideas for what to write. Should I focus on current events, even though they confuse me, or should I turn inward and write about my mental health? Maybe the two are connected in some way. I think I’ll start with my mental health. First and foremost, I want to…

    Blogging ain’t easy!!

    I have been struggling to write this blog post for days, but I always got sidetracked or ran out of time. That was nearly the case today. I was planning to sleep early and then I realized that I could write this blog post. Now I just need to recall what I wanted to say.…

    A pain in my…

    I began the process of getting my passport this week. I went to Service Canada and they gave me a list of what I need to do. 1. Fill out application. 2. Get passport photos done at Shoppers Drug Mart. 3. Have a guarantor sign my application and one photo. Then I bring everything back…

  • Another Day, Another Year.

    Tomorrow is my birthday; in fact, it is my 60th birthday. While I am grateful for another year of life, I am also dreaded it. My mind feels younger than my body, which is old. I have type 2 diabetes, joint pain and stage 4 kidney cancer. I feel old because of that. I know…

  • The mess that is my life.

    The title of this blog may be confusing. I am not referring to my life in general, but how cluttered my office and other areas that I frequent are.

  • Love/Hate relation with Sleep.

    It’s 4 am and I’m awake. I could go to sleep, but I’ve decided to stay up at least until the movie I’m watching ends. Having napped earlier in the evening might be why I’m still awake. My mind simply won’t quiet down; it’s filled with thoughts about trivial matters, future plans, and concerns about…

  • Short Post

    Just a short post. I love doing art in what ever form I pick for that project. I find it stress causing and relieving at the same time. The frustration of not getting something right to the elation of it working out. I think art can be bipolar. I have been doing a lot of…

  • My First Post After

    This is my first post after the demise of my first website. I will forever on check my backups. I was able to recover some of the blog entries as I had written them in MS Word. I will repost them, but unfortunately, I lost all the comments. I am very sorry for that as…
