The Interview – Part 1

January 6, 2015 / Celebrities, Personal Life

By now you’ve been unable to escape the hype, confusion and likely b.s. about the comedy, The Interview, and how it has supposedly raised the hackles of North Korean leader Kim Jong Un. Imagine, someone makes a movie centred on your assassination and you get upset! But I digress. Today I’m going to share the story of what I went through to see this film. It’s no wonder so many people of our generation can’t be bothered with online purchases of this nature. …

Reality Bites in my (Ample) Butt!

January 5, 2015 / General, Personal Life

Yeah, it’s that time. New year, new start. No more candy or junk food within my sight, please. It’s time to get to know more vegetables and reacquaint myself with the treadmill again, for more than just airing out clothing! …

Las Vegas City Sights

December 30, 2014 / Personal Life, Travel

Day trips to landmarks famous and not so famous made our Christmas trip to Vegas a memorable one. Having visited virtually every hotel on The Strip on previous visits, we compiled a list of things we wanted to do and see in the city itself. The Strip is not the city! If you live in Las Vegas, you don’t go to The Strip, unless it’s to work or see a show that’s new in town. …

Leaving Las Vegas

December 29, 2014 / Personal Life, Travel

There were Elvi – the plural of Elvis. There were gamblers and drunks and hookers and sugar daddies and Lamborghinis and whoo-hooo girls and guys out on a tear. That’s Las Vegas for you, but it’s not the Vegas we went to see over Christmas. …

Bringing Back the Heat

December 17, 2014 / 5 Comments / General, Personal Life

Not a lot of women like to talk about menopause. Scratch that. They don’t like to bring it up. Once the topic is introduced, they can’t stop talking about it! I’m trying to see it as a positive thing, like Raj in the Big Bang Theory did when he described it as, “nature’s birth control”! …

This Boot is Made for…Storing Until the Next Injury!

December 12, 2014 / Personal Life

The aircast came off this week and I took my first tentative steps with a free foot. It’s not ready for the treadmill yet and it won’t go into a high heel but it’s a lot better than before the boot. …

Mondays. Bah! Humbug!

December 8, 2014 / 2 Comments / Personal Life

I don’t like to be one of those people who doesn’t like Mondays. But I am and I have to admit it. For me, it’s got to do with the switchover from sort-of normal person on the weekend to early-morning-starting, midday-napping, early-retiring person during the week. …

My Left Foot Part Deux

December 2, 2014 / Personal Life

So I told you a couple of weeks ago about my fall and showed you photos of the festive colours of my foot. But there’s more! After aching and staying swollen, one day, it took a turn. The ache turned into a stab and I knew something was wrong. …

Timing is Everything

November 17, 2014 / 3 Comments / Personal Life, Travel

A few weeks ago, feeling burned out by long hours and other commitments, hubby suggested we book a long weekend away. We considered everything from New York City to Haliburton before settling on Niagara Falls. Who knew we’d need to get away even more by the time the weekend arrived? …

If injury photos make you queasy, if you don’t like feet or if you can’t handle the look of a woman’s heel in dire need of a pedicure, please surf away from this website! …

Dream a Little Dream

October 22, 2014 / 5 Comments / Personal Life

As a general rule, I don’t believe in things I can’t see. Take from that what you will! And even though you “see” your dreams, I don’t put too much stock in them as being much more than a way to delete brain garbage while I sleep. Often times I can trace a theme or significant symbol back to something tangible from recent days. …
