Family day

By in a good day, we have fun

We went to High Park and it’s clear that spring has sprung. I love all birds. This fellow was very busy trying to drum up lunch. Then we found a fort. We also spent time in the zoo: She was very proud of her beautiful feathers and wattle. He wasn’t being manly, he was trying […]

Cool replies

By in a good day, we have fun

A couple things I have written (privately) have generated cool replies lately. First, I wrote to The Names Brand tshirt website to point out that they were missing a Howard Stern shirt. I sent the email on February 26th. They wrote me back on the 5th of March to say that my shirt idea had […]

Eyes of Desire 2

By in a good day, haha, we have fun

I had to do my laundry this morning, my gym clothes were getting pretty rank and I had run out of good underwear. There is a bookshelf in the laundry room that I like to peruse even though I have never found anything worth reading on it. Usually there are a bunch of foreign language […]

Over too quickly

By in a good day, babies, food, friends

Remember last year when I went to the orphan’s Superbowl party? That happened again this past weekend. I left early Sunday morning-my train was at 7:50am-and was picked up by my friends Karen and Greg. We got coffees and went to Karen’s to get all caught up and laugh our heads off. Then Karen drove […]

Happy customer

By in a good day, making stuff is good

I hadn’t sold something in a long time and I had forgotten how happy it makes me. Here’s Gaz who bought the brown dickey I made mostly while flying to Mexico. He says “I knew it would be warm and comfy, but not THAT much. Its awesome :)” Well, kind words always make me feel […]

SMRT

By in a good day

I get the Toronto Star on Sunday every week just to do the crossword. It’s a good because it’s hard but not impossible. Most weeks I fill in about two thirds of the clues and feel pretty good about it. This week I finished the ENTIRE crossword! In one day, heck, in less than 12 […]

Workin’ out

By in a good day, work

My boss and I have agreed to go to the gym 3 days a week. She works at a community centre, so we get to go for free during off hours (when the weight room is closed). It’s great and way less embarrassingĀ  than with an audience (although I think some people prefer it that […]

Goose X-ing

By in a good day, haha, making stuff is good

Yesterday on my walk to the subway I saw an enormous flock of geese who seemed to be taking a break from their migration route. Conservatively, I would guess at least 200 of them. I am not a huge fan of geese (they would take over the pond at my grandparent’s cottage every year and […]

More Mexico, like you can get enough

By in a good day, we have fun

There are a couple pictures that I took that I like very much and that I think warrant further explanation. They were already posted on Zen, but I will provide the deets. #1 The round rainbow, or roundbow. It was outside the flight from Toronto to Mexico City and followed us for a long time. […]
