I'm beginning to think that everyone should start making a Friday Favourites list every week! It's a pretty cool way to "force" yourself to think of things all week that you're really loving or enjoying! As a naturally negative person, I don't always see the best in things; so, taking time to note a few simple things that bring me joy every week is helpful for my mindset! So--here you go--some ...
I Can’t Get Enough!
Last Saturday, my father in law and his wife, Pam, came to visit for a little while and I shot this little video clip of J and Pam. I have been watching it all week and can't get enough of it's cuteness so wanted to share! Happy Thursday! ...
Workout Wednesday
This week was a little weird as I did more running than strength training. I am struggling a bit to find the right balance between wanting to train for races but also wanting to put on muscle. Hopefully in the next month I will get a consistent schedule figured out between the two. On the plus side, my new shoes are working out amazingly well. I think the new socks are helping. I have never bought ...
Good bye, January!
Ever type something that sent your mind down a rabbit hole of memories?! The instant I type the title ,"Good bye, January, " I started singing the line, "Good bye, Norma Jean," in my head. It immediately reminded me of Princess Diana's funeral. I was sixteen when she died and my friend, Erin, slept over so we could stay up all night to watch her funeral. Honestly, I didn't really know too much ...
The Kindness of Strangers
(I have started this post at least three times & can't seem to find the right words; so while I do want to write so much more it will have to wait for another post.) Yesterday, I joined at least 50 other runners at Nathan Phillips Square to go for a 10km run. It was a "fun run with JP" set up by JP and Melly. I found out about it on Facebook and decided to embrace my word of the year ...

Friday Favourites
I feel like I found a lot of things I loved this week or maybe writing these posts is helping me be more grateful and notice things around me more! Canada Dry Club Soda with Lemon & Lime I am a water drinker (thanks to my mom) and rarely drink pop (or soda for my American peeps!). When we moved to Malta, the water was undrinkable so everywhere we went and ordered water we were asked, ...
Use your Voice
This morning I started a blog post on my phone while I was out, but then I read author Jon Acuff's latest article on his website and have been thinking about it all day! The post begins like this: “My haters get to tell me how to live my life.” I might never admit that out loud, but sometimes that’s exactly what my actions say. Case in point, when I do a book tour, I try to be vocal about ...
Workout Wednesday
Have you ever tried to take a picture of yourself at the gym?! Yeah--it is NOT easy! But, on the plus side, I definitely got to see some of my bad form, so now I know some things to work on! This week was a pretty good exercise week. I am feeling pretty committed and as January comes to a close, I am kinda proud of myself for not quitting! I've gone back to early morning workouts which I enjoy ...
Worth More Than a Thousand Cards
When I started going through a box that held different memories and objects of significance to us, I came across this postcard. I don't remember receiving it but I know I would've only been six at the time. My only sibling, my sister, was born the next month so I would've still been the only child then. I remember the house we lived in where this postcard would've arrived and how close to the ...
