Both the Men’s and Women’s hockey teams took Gold! WOW!!!
SO VERY PROUD of our phenomenal Olympic athletes and their amazing performances at these Olympics, hosted by us in Vancouver. Canada actually took the most gold medals with 14, which breaks the record for most golds taken by a [...]

Week from hell; still can’t see!

While my surgery was successful, I’m still not able to see very well, and I’m a bit down about that. I am mostly feeling my way around online – I certainly do these things enough that I know instinctively where to go and what to do without straining my [extremely [...]

Haiku is simple! It is 3 non-rhyming lines of 5, 7, and 5 syllables respectively (a great way to use your fingers!)

A few weeks ago, Jenn asked me to do this particular guest post as she had spent the day babysitting Little Bit while Frank #2 was having surgery. Just a disclaimer folks… this post is a bit of a downer. I tried to jazz it up, but it hits a little too close [...]

Going in for surgery on Monday!

I’m so excited!! Having PRK Custom Wavefront laser surgery to correct my abominable vision – wish me luck!!
P.S. 6WS visitors – thanks for stopping by! I will return the visit, but can only leave a comment if you have Name/URL enabled on your blog…
 

I am so excited.
All my life I’ve been living with horrible vision, which has held me back from so many things I’ve wanted to do! When I was little I wanted to be a pilot. A fighter pilot, actually, and then a commercial pilot. Kinda need to have good eyes for that. Then of course, [...]

My Bloggy friend Betty had this up on her blog yesterday, and I thought I’d post it.
Now, it is a Valentine’s Day related Q&A, but I’m not real big on V-Day (and yes, I did have a rant post up yesterday, but quickly realized how whiny I sounded, and trashed it) so I decided [...]

Not really looking forward to tomorrow

I may have mentioned once or twice that I’m married to a very unromantic guy… :P

Something unsavory has been going on in our larger choral group that we sing with lately.
We are a great group of about 55 voices. Strangely enough, out of that nice number, only 5 are tenors (including John-Boy), and out of that 5, only 4 are men (um, also including J-B!). That leaves, of course, [...]

Wow, that was dramatic, wasn’t it??
I had about a dozen vials of blood taken on Monday in anticipation of a visit with my doctor today. Foremost on my mind was the extreme levels of cholesterol I was harboring at the last visit, and what that could mean in the long run, given my family history [...]

Yesterday I shared a song that we recorded at our first Studio session last week. I have to tell you, that night was one of the best ever. Definitely an item that we could all cross off of our collective bucket list! ShaMoo, Knarf, John-Boy and I sang our hearts out and had a wonderful [...]

Recording Studio = Bucket List Cross Off

The group spent Wednesday evening in the recording studio, and we had the BEST. NIGHT. EVER!!
Want a sample? Here’s ShaMoo, John-Boy, Knarf and I singing “Can’t Help Falling In Love With You”. Enjoy!
Note: The mix is a little off towards the end, so Knarf shines through a bit [...]

Remember when, a few days ago, I told you to clean up your toys? I was pretty nice about it, right? Even though the piles/unholy amount of brightly coloured plastic was beyond ridiculous?
And remember when I told you the same thing a couple days later, and I was still pretty nice, but getting that [...]
