Celebrating my birthday at our favourite restaurant: – The Old Surrey Restaurant ! Great food, great atmosphere, excellent service

Today was a good day. Tackled our fish pond. Cleaned the small one first. Moved 24 good sized goldfish into it, drained and cleaned the big one. Now just filling the big one back up so they can migrate over to their bigger and cleaner home!

Has it been THREE months since I wrote anything? That is crazy! So, let’s try and fix that right now. February – Busy month. Filled with lots of appointments, both personal and professional. Had so many meetings with my accounts through work but, I managed to juggle them all and fill them with glee atContinue reading “AUGH! So much I missed posting”

Happy Belated New Year! This year has started off with a bit of a bang. Alex is not one to sit around if there is a project to be done.

When we purchased our home, it was drab, dreary, lacking any sort of cohesiveness and was sadly living in the 1970’s. Since the day weContinue reading “My husband is AMAZING!”

It has been over a month and I have been waffling about posting this – obviously, I have posted it. I have decided to write about my experience with our medical system. This is not an indictment of failures that I experienced with my health issues, but, the events have been gnawing at me forContinue reading “Health Scare”

It has been a hot minute since I have posted anything. Suffice to say, I have been busy. Work at IRIS is going full steam ahead and I am enjoying working with my new boss, Houtan. He’s not Debbi, but, no one else on this planet is. Debbi is family and so, since her retirement,Continue reading “Reunion!!!”
