Life is good…

For years my most consistent blog topic has been my weekly “Hello Monday” entries. It gave me a chance to change how I looked at the day and week ahead – not with dread but with hope. Over time Monday became my favourite day of the week.

TRUSTING that, when all is said and done, at the end of our 13-week isolation (a whole quarter of the year!) enough people will have done their bit to keep us all safe so it won’t all be for nothing.
GRATEFUL to always have something to do. This time of pandemic is not that much of a departure from regular life. I miss reformer Pilates, visits to the spa and lunch with friends but I’m grateful for a life of ease and comfort amid the chaos.
INSPIRED by the leadership and love displayed by the Cuomo brothers. Rarely do I pick sides as I believe everyone - especially those with differing views and backgrounds - brings something to the party. That said, I’m team Cuomo 100%. FUN is found spending time outside. As long as it’s dry we’re able to have the cushions out so activities are moving onto the deck. Just that little bit of extra space, sitting with the birds and critters, does so much for my soul.

TRUSTING that the lengths to which I've gone to protect myself and those I love, by bringing a nagging issue to a swift conclusion, will hold over the short- and long-term. Though, to be honest, I don’t know that you can ever be safe from crazy.

GRATEFUL to love and be loved. Even more than that is the expansion and acceptance of all of the new relationships created as a result. I am embracing the joy that comes with vulnerability and not giving into the fear it can create. #unconditionalistheonlyway

INSPIRED to get outside. The temperatures are rising and the sun is out. I’m tempted to put out the cushions and fire up the pit. I can’t wait for the days of reading and napping with the sun on my face accompanied by a cool lake breeze through the massive oak and maple trees.
FUN is sending one pup off to Toronto to visit with Claire and Caden. I’m enjoying the photos and video being sent via Instagram and iMessage. Finn is suited for visiting and exploring. Tucker is happy to be in familiar surroundings. #sharingpuppylove

Delighted to receive this bright and happy bouquet for Mother’s Day (in the UK) from my girl who lives in Edinburgh (who is currently self-isolating in our basement) and knows that I love all things from @fiorioakville. I do enjoy this special day :) #thankschloe #mothersdayuk #prettybouquet #fiorioakville

TRUSTING the next 12-weeks of hard core “social distancing” will be enough to head off the worst of Covid-19. Trying to be respectful, not paranoid. #asthmaishighrisk #soishepc

GRATEFUL for a plan, prescriptions and protocols. The timing is either brilliant or brutal, time will tell. I’m just happy to be going in a direction.
INSPIRED by my kids who are so aware that they refuse to come to visit. The one who has to live here? She has taken over the basement. #nowelcomehomehugyet #thankgoodnessfordoglove

FUN realizing that we can spend hours upon hours in each other’s company and not get frustrated or bored. So much talking and sharing and learning and laughing. I wouldn’t trade it for anything.

TRUSTING that the measures being taken to mitigate the spread of COVID-19 will be met with success.
GRATEFUL to learn more about the goddess number: 13, and how over time it’s existence and all it represents has been challenged. I’m doing all I can to embrace it. #crushthepatriarchy

INSPIRED by young people who display tremendous common sense when they make hard decisions they don’t want to make.
FUN is learning more and more about him and knowing I like everything: the light, the dark, the all of it.

TRUSTING my instincts and giving voice to what my heart knows to be true. It is leading me to have uncomfortable, but necessary, conversations.

GRATEFUL to have done enough work on myself that I am able to show up as an authentic and vulnerable version of myself every day. Circumstances could have made me hard but I chose to stay soft. I am grateful to all of those who taught me great lessons when I most needed them.

INSPIRED to reframe some recent stories. Determined not to f*ck this up.
FUN is found in being organized enough that spontaneity is a possibility. An 18+ hour road trip? Sure, why not?

TRUSTING that I can get to the bottom of why charitable live and silent auctions are not as successful as they once were. Is it timing? Item selection? Asking too much to start? Too few (with disposable money) in attendance? Once I figure it out I’ll be able to make the necessary adjustments for us going forward.
GRATEFUL for all of the incredible people we have met in the last little while. The support, time and care they have shown us has been staggering in scope. Unexpected blessings are everywhere and “grateful” doesn’t even begin to cover how we feel.
INSPIRED to listen and act upon the advice and desires of talented people. This venture can be so much more than we first thought.
FUN is going to be had in the weeks ahead as we plan the calendar of events for the next year. So many ideas and opportunities to explore!
