Hello! I’m a Canadian self-published author. My debut novel is called Mac. She is a member of a vigilante group who does unorthodox things in the name of justice. Action, adventure, humour and romance will take you on a global ride with characters readers have grown to love. Sequel is in progress.
I’m kind of holding out hope that someone just took one of my posts from yesterday seriously when it’s obviously a joke. I got an eyeroll emoji. Ahh, memories of Twitter…😆

This is going to seem incredibly insensitive, I’m sure, but nothing makes me chuckle more than when someone does a post wishing someone a heavenly birthday then following it with, “They would have been 127 today.”🙈
No. No, they would not.😆
No. No, they would not.😆

I’m 54. Am I supposed to be posting half-naked, sexy photos where I’m making out with my device while in the shower, stating that I am a strong and powerful woman who doesn’t need attention?😂

Some things people say can really stay with you. Two lines I’ll never forget, unless I get dementia, of course:
“Paranoia is the better side of caution.”
“If they don’t love you, they don’t know you.”
“Paranoia is the better side of caution.”
“If they don’t love you, they don’t know you.”

An indie author on Twitter once accused me of being unprofessional because I was less than favourable about funding Elon and buying checkmarks. But the beauty of being an indie author is you do not have to act professional. You are not beholden to anyone.
If given a choice, I choose fun. Always.

Trump is such a prick. I almost majored in journalism and if I had been one of those two women reporters who had the misfortune of dealing with this pissant’s bullying attempts this past week, I’m not sure I could have handled it with as much class.

I promise this had a smile on it before I bit into it. It is Tim Horton's Holiday Smile Cookie campaign. All proceeds go to local charities. I think they look like a villain from Ghostbusters, but you'll be ok if you eat them quickly. It's for charity. Go grab some while they're still available...❤️

“So shines a good deed in a weary world.”
It turns out, I did have another option. My son is home for an appointment. I knocked on the bathroom door, “I need the garbage can. It’s garbage day and I’m late.”
“It’s done. I took it out. Sorry if I missed anything. Oh, and I bought you a coffee.”😭❤️❤️

I woke up. Wide awake. Too early. Fell back to sleep. Now, not only am I making choppy sentences, I’m cranky.
And I have to run to take the garbage and recycling out before there are a million kids and their parents at the school bus stop across from my driveway.
I look like this:
With wild hair.

Oh dear, oh dear, oh dear… My youngest just watched The Notebook for the first time. I just said, “Now you know why your brother and sister say I’m going to be like the older lady in that because I’m already forgetting things.”
“Mom! Don’t say that right now!”
I am issuing a tsunami warning.😂😂

You know when you see those reels that say you can tell if someone is aging poorly if they aren’t able to jump to their feet from a seated or kneeling position?
Prove it. Because I call bullshit.

Canadian political post alert:
I am so happy the budget got passed. Give them a chance to make things happen. It won’t be an overnight fix and to switch parties now wouldn’t be very bright, particularly with who is the head of the other one.
Hard times need a steady ship, not a whining man.

Note to self: It’s ok to wear pants that fall down at home, but maybe remember to change them when you go to pick up a few things from the grocery store.🙈

I’m the youngest in my family. And she is my youngest.
You should never underestimate the youngest. Resilience with humour and a ‘take no prisoners’ je ne sais quoi.
I am so very proud of the strength this one has had to show lately.
Here’s to the good days that follow bad ones. ❤️
