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.

18 June 2021 TRUSTING the one last “big” piec

18 June 2021

TRUSTING the one last “big” piece of the renovation - the industrial sized gas line - will be installed and we’ll be all set to start cooking (and all the other things that depends on gas to fuel in the house). #CountdownIsOn #24Days

GRATEFUL to have found a program that allows me to turn my blog into a book - well, many books. I wasted a ton of time figuring out the software, but now I know how to do it, this is going to work out well. My blog has always been a “placeholder” for stories and opinions. Now it is the actual contents for printed books! #BlookUp #MultipleVolumes #FormattingNoEditingAllowed

INSPIRED to start packing and putting this condo in order so I can head north and put the house in order. Both are substantial projects and I want to pace myself so that I don’t get burnt out - yet, I want to get it done quickly enough that I don’t hit a wall and lazily toss everything in - or out. #BustingOutOfTheTinCan #TheLongMove #CantWaitForSunsetsEveryDay

FUN is receiving daily calls, videos and photos of my new grandpuppy, Hank. You can follow along at @hank_thetoytank My girl, Chloé is utterly in love with her sweet boy. They are finding their rhythm - sleep, pee, eat, repeat. #LoveTheBeasties #WelcomeToTheFamilyHank

I am so relieved and grateful to have received my second dose earlier today. #TearsOfGratitude #BioNTechDevelopedMyVaccine #FullyVaccinatedIn14Days #TickTock

14 June 2021

HELLO HANK | A promised graduation gift from her late step-dad, I’m glad Chloé waited until she was home to get him. Now for the fun stuff: training! Bonus: she picked him up on Saturday, her birthday. It was a good (though sleepless) weekend! #ToyPoodle #PuppyLove

HELLO DOSE | Lucky for me, my kids have the patience to deal with the provincial booking system online. Cole got me in for my second dose and I’ve never looked more forward to anything in my life as much as I’m anticipate getting this shot! #BioNTechVaccine #WhyGivePfizerAllTheCredit

HELLO YELLOWSTONE | Its back and I am greatly looking forward to learning the status of the complicated Dutton family after the gruesome Season 3 finale. As much as I want to savour it, I know I’ll binge-watch and it’ll be over in a dramatic (likely violent) blink! #KevinCostnerYellowstone #YesMorePlease

To what are you saying hello on this fabulous Monday in June?

It was completely worth the quick drive into Oakville to pick up these beauties from the incomparable @fiorioakville.

11 June 2021

TRUSTING the creative choices I’m making. This has been an incredibly productive and fulfilling month and I look forward to holding the physical results once everything is published. #ReturningToWhatLightsMeUp

GRATEFUL for an earlier appointment for my second shot thanks to Cole. The venue is way up by the airport but it was the first available so he booked it for me. I will be so relieved when I finally get it. #FullyVaccinatedSoon

INSPIRED by the lessons learned while trying to condense our 38-year story into 1700 words. My editor has been wonderful. The final story is much richer and beautiful than the first draft. I am beyond grateful for her insight and care. #ReadyToSubmit

FUN is knowing that I will be sitting on my front porch, enjoying the breezes off of Lake Huron, regularly - soon. I’m also encouraged by the beauty of the front garden. Plenty of peonies and hydrangeas - but the scraggly junipers have to go! I look forward to being up there full-time to experience the blooms and make plans for summers ahead. #LookingForwardToBeingHome

07 June 2021

HELLO HANK | As her promised graduation gift from Bill, Chloé is picking up her new toy poodle this week. My first grand-puppy! #TheyGrowUpSoFast #HeIsSoCute

HELLO NEW STORY | Back to the drawing board - time to find different characters to populate the world that is becoming more real every day - in my head. Time to put it all together. I’m really enjoying my course at @YourBetaReader with Dr. Christina Yother (@ccyother). #WorksheetsWork

HELLO TASTE TEST | Limes have been purchased as well as a bottle each of Teremana Resposado and Blanco Tequila - time to figure out which is better for the Moondance “signature” drink. #TheRockRocks #TeremanaTequila

To what are you saying hello this steamy,almost-summer Monday?

HELLO MONDAY | You are my favourite: I am grateful that you provide me with 52 fresh starts every year.

04 June 2021

TRUSTING that my bringing Kiki (our stripped-down manual-everything Seanchai Jeep) to Cole (@colecurrie) in Southampton was a smart idea. He could barely drive it when I left. The daily updates seem positive. (And I know he’s washed her since the photo was taken!) #JeepJoy

GRATEFUL to have found a program where I can import my entire blog to be bound into book form - 10 volumes! I’m cleaning up and editing like mad. Kind of fun to go back to 2014/15 to see where I was and how far I’ve come. #Blook #BigProject

INSPIRED by Chloé (@itschloecurrie) whose focus and determination to settle into her new apartment in Waterloo is something to behold! I’m so glad she was able to secure a place and do all of the adulting things without too much stress. Ethan has been a great help as he is apparently is the only one on earth who enjoys putting together IKEA furniture. #LaurierBound #MastersInInternationalAffairs

FUN is making plans to travel! (Maybe) Ireland, (Definitely) Newfoundland, Jamaica and Turks & Caicos. I feel so much more myself making plans - living in the here and now is all well and good, but life is so much sweeter when you have something to look forward to! #SweetAnticipation

31 May 2021

HELLO PHOTO PROJECTS | I’m creating big and small books to hold my stories from Instagram and website. It’s an enormous project and I’m enjoying it immensely. I’d forgotten how much I love to make books. #CatharticCreativity #MakingBooks

HELLO RENAME | I’m moving into a home that was once used as a B&B named Watch Hill. I don’t particularly like the name and there is no reason to keep it. I’ve always fancied having a house with a name, though. The re-name? Moondance. I want it to reflect how I want to feel. Dancing under the light of the moon is exactly the invitation I want to answer! #Moondance #ALittleVanMorrison

HELLO GAME 7 | Nothing beats a do-or-die situation. We live in Toronto and yet my kids are die-hard Habs fans. No matter who’s playing, I enjoy watching a high stakes game and can only hope the players determine the outcome, not the officials. #Game7 #MakeItAGoodOne

To what are you saying hello this wonky and wonderful last day of May Monday?
