This is going to be another one of those stream of consciousness posts (which most of mine are) where I have a basic idea what I'd like to say, but no idea where it will take me, how much I will expose, or where it will end. Deep breath and here ...

Let me start off by saying I'm generally not a "play" person. I have enjoyed the odd play I've gone to. Some that pop to mind are Twelve Angry Men, ART, Picasso at the Lapin Agile. But, I generally find myself getting bored at some point during a play. I'm more of a musical ...

We did it. We told the kids. [caption id="attachment_891" align="aligncenter" width="425" caption="Credit: http://www.legaljuice.com/2011/12/post_332.html"][/caption] It wasn't easy. On any of us.

I'm making myself write this post. I don't want to, since it's not a "happy, cheery" post, but it needs to come out. So, here it is. I forced myself to get out of bed to write because I didn't want to get out of bed today. Not because it was comfy ...

And my heart will always belong in Goderich. My childhood home. My town. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tu8JFZw3L6A Yesterday was just surreal. We woke to a special day here. Baby Girl turned seven yesterday. We welcomed my parents (who live in Goderich) as they came to Kitchener to take us all out for lunch. Baby Girl chose ...
