Good morning from the inside of a hotel room.
Why yes, I travel during coronavirus…but don’t worry, I didn’t fly to other continents. I’m not on a cruise ship. I’m not even using mass transit. Continue reading “Girl trip”

Part-time anxiety issues
On some days, the slightest thing can cause me to feel major anxiety.
And yet, the same exact thing another day may not even register on my brain.
I don’t get it. Continue reading “Part-time anxiety issues”
Heightened state of annoyance
Look. I have been a mom of preschoolers. I have been a mom of fidgety kids. I have been a mom in rink lobbies and dressing rooms for over a decade.

Kids helping kids: fun times at the rink
My 11yo daughter, a kid with a natural social disposition as well as a desire to be involved in activities, has been invited to volunteer in the Learn to Skate program.

We’re going to Paris today.

Typical sport family Saturday, and a new meal-time term
Remember this post? I was feeling tired and dispirited about the never-ending hockey and ringette my kids were involved in. That was back in January, still in the regular season. So almost three months ago.
Well, the season is not done yet. We are now in playoffs, thanks to a fantastic game last Tuesday night that knocked the first place team out of the runnings. And we keep winning!
Here’s a newsflash that won’t surprise anyone: Continue reading “Typical sport family Saturday, and a new meal-time term”
