Nothing to prove, nothing to hide
I’m feeling sooo much better than I was last week when I was…well…a little broken (mental note: the challenging days are typically just that..a “day”..you just have to hang in there until the ride starts going down again).

I LOVE Christmas!
I have to finish the year with one of my favourite subjects CHRISTMAS! I am so excited that it is finally nearly here.

I feel like I’m walking on a tightrope…
…one step wrong and I’m going to fall. This week has been one of those weeks, where all aspects of my life seem to be firing on all cylinders and requiring my attention. Part of the realities of “balance” is not a neatly packaged life with time each day to juggle all your key…
