Tomorrow is Monday! The dreaded Monday... I've never really understood why Monday's are so hated, honestly. Some weeks I'm wishing for a holiday only because I feel less accomplished than I'd like to...but I don't have it out for the day like so many others seem to. What's to hate about it?! It's the [...]
It's Saturday. Does this also mean that it's date night? If you're looking for a little inspo for a last minute idea, I've got a great look for you. For me, date nights are special and I always want to look my best - but that doesn't necessarily mean dressing 'fancy'...I still want to be [...]
In keeping with the conversation on mental health and wellness from yesterday, I want to focus today's post on things that make me happy! Sometimes we don't realize how much emphasis we put on the things that bring us down in our lives - let's work to shift that focus onto the things that lift [...]
#BellLetsTalkDay There are so many different sides to this story. So many depths, and facets to mental illness. So much behind the stigma, and so much more behind the warriors who are challenged by it every single day. This is just the view from my side of the fence. "Handle With Care." There are times [...]
Happy Monday, world! Recently I saw Dirty Dancing on Broadway Across Canada. I LOVE the arts and theatre, as does my family - so much so, that we are Season Ticket holders. It's become a little tradition for my mother, grandmother and I to attend these shows together. I hadn't watched the movie for [...]
When the winter temperatures begin to mild here in Canada, I get super excited. By mild, I mean instead of -30*C, it jumps to between 0*C and -10*C - that's shorts weather here... haha! We've actually been really lucky this season so far, as we haven't had too many really cold days. One of the [...]
Thought Train Tuesday: Today I've decided to include another one of my personal writings. It's something I've had swishing around in my mind for a while now, and it feels more appropriate than ever. I see so many people, women especially, competing with one another and trying to tear each other down. Why? We [...]
I did it. I'm a yogi - as of almost 2 weeks ago. .... Albeit, a SUPER noob yogi, but a yogi none-the-less! I've participated in yoga in the past, but I never could make the commitment needed both physically and mentally to make it a permanent thing. It's something I've been thinking of [...]
I'm going to deviate a little bit, and share in this post an excerpt from my book - a collection of personal prose. I've been noticing the last little while a trend, not just in my own life, but in those around me as well. With the new year, I've been making a lot of [...]
I've been a little busy getting crafty these last couple of days. I've been searching forever for somewhere to organize all my nail polish; my random tub just wasn't cutting it anymore. I had looked everywhere locally and couldn't find anything, and everywhere I looked online it was either not quite what I had in [...]
