Your Mileage May Vary

August 24, 2016 by Alison Tedford Leave a Comment

We went on a road trip this weekend to visit my son. He's away at his grandma's for a three-week visit and we are popping up to see him on weekends to soak up some sun.

Book Review: “The Dream Lover” By Elizabeth Berg

May 12, 2015 by Christine Stock Leave a Comment

I should have known better than to browse through Facebook on Sunday. Like other women who have lost their mothers, I welcome Mother’s Day with cautious optimism.

The L Word

December 16, 2014 by Sara 2 Comments

On Sunday we went up to Uxbridge to see Santa on the Santa Train. On longer car rides, things tend to go one of three ways: A. He crashes out and I can silently sing along to Meatloaf's Bat Out Of Hell (best car song ever). B. He gets enthralled in his video and is silent the whole time. C. … [Read more...]

Facing My Fear at 50, Again

October 22, 2013 by Nancy 14 Comments

All week I watched the parasail float over the water above me as I ran or walked the beach. I could do that, I say to myself, from the safety of the peaceful beach. But do I want to? "Nance, you should do that. I know you are afraid." I am, as many of you know, very afraid of heights. I have … [Read more...]

Why I Love Country Markets

October 14, 2013 by Nancy Leave a Comment

You can come as you are in your favourite shorts Except if you are my mom and think low heel Farragamo's are country casual.

First Child Challenges

October 9, 2013 by Jason Leave a Comment

My second child bolts up in the morning, gets dressed and makes his bed. My first child rolls out of bed at the last minute and leaves everything everywhere. My second child sits at the dining room table quietly doing all or most of his borrow-a-book homework the day after it is assigned, knowing … [Read more...]

Closure

October 7, 2013 by Jason 2 Comments

I never fully understood the need for closure. I never felt any emotional trigger when an event designed for closure happened in my life. Whether it was the end of significant life chapter or resolving a particular conflict, I don’t remember walking away, wiping my non-sweaty brow and saying “phew” … [Read more...]
