Giving back is the best

Today, I chauffeured around two little cubs as they went door to door for the Annual Salvation Army food drive. The boys ran from house to house like they were trick or treating and collected so much food for the less privileged. I loved it. We toasted our effort with some hot cocoa and a donut and gathered for a group photo. I find it one of life's great generosities to show children the art of helping those in need and my boys at such a tender age understand it. It's the best way to spend a Sunday afternoon.

Now we're off to a hockey game, maybe my boy will score again. No pressure.

Teenagers

Help, I have a teenager with all the classic signs or I should say behaviours. I am trying to remember if I gave my parents a run for their money? I think I did. Karma, karma, karma. Good Lord help me, lol.

24 Days Until Christmas

Only 24 shopping days until Christmas. I must get into high gear and get this holiday off and running.

Nora Ephron

I became a fan of Nora Ephron after reading her latest book "I remember nothing." She's funny, sassy and clever and an amazing prose composer.
