My heart always swells.and melts when my 18yo son surprises me.with these signs of. Love.

I got a surprise text from him asking my favorite colour. I told him blue and purple. The next night he gave me this, alo.g with a big hug. He made it while sitting for at Tim Hortons with a friend.

First attempt!! Sourdough Apple Fritters! I think they turned out pretty good, considering i don't have a thermometer to control the temp.

Yikes! But climate change is fake.... we have never had a tornado warning before. And this year we have had 2.

Last week was a whirlwind. I took a week of holidays to throw a 50th anniversary party with my brothers for my parents. It was a super busy week of baking and food prep. Decorating, speeches, washing dishes, cleaning. There was VERY little time to relax.

I realize just how lucky I am to wake up, and enjoy a good book and a better cup of coffee with my favourite pup.

I wouldn't trade this little piece of paradise for anything.

Thank you @chapmans.ca for making the best ice cream I have ever had.

Tried this last night, and it is creamy, smooth, fluffy, and tasted like heaven.

This is my private paradise.

Tomorrow this kiddo graduates from high school. I am struggling to accept the fact that he is an adult. That he has overcome every obstacle to get here. I am so beyond proud of this man.

I made #sourdough hamburger buns!!

Next time I will do it a bit differently. I would make more buns from the same amount of dough. And I would start then out a bit flatter. But they were delicious!!!

My coffee

It's June.

As an ally, I vocally support the LGBTQIA2S+ community in June, but also July through May.

What does 36lbs look like on my 5'5" frame?

While I am losing weight, my goal is to prevent the health problems i see in my parents with T2 Diabetes, joint problems, and others.

I have a ways to go, but I am so proud of how far I have come.

Please ignore the mess, it's laundry day 🤤

My son's grad gala (senior prom) Was last night. He celebrated his upcoming graduation with friends.

Today we took the kids bowling and for lunch, knowing that our trips like these may be numbered.

I am so proud of how hard he has fought to be able to get here. Autism is still so misunderstood.

How does this happen? I blinked and he went from a baby in my arms to attending his senior prom, and preparing to graduate from high school.

And with his best friend on his arm, he was happier than I have seen him in a long time.

Good morning!

Trying to keep my thoughts sorted. It's so full right now.

My oldest.son has his senior prom and grand March tomorrow. He turns 18 next week. He graduates next month, and we are planning a 50th wedding anniversary party for my parents for July. I'm treading water.

Feeling epically appreciated today.

My manager booked off today, but came in anyways to surprise me with daffodils, a sugar-free oat milk Latte and a gift certificate ate to our favourite coffee shop to celebrate Administrative Professionals Day.

I think I hit the jackpot with her.
