Ending 2012 With a Bang.

Ending 2012 With a Bang.

Friends. What a wonderful holiday season I have just come through. It was lovely to have time off but I am ready to jump back into regular life and a regular blogging schedule. I have so many amazing things planned for 2013 with Laces and Lattes and I cannot wait to share them with you. But FIRST,… Read More…

Raptors and Christmas!

Dec24

Raptors and Christmas!

Last week, Jesse met me at work and we headed in my little blue car for Toronto. We were headed to a Raptors Game sponsored by JustEnergy. I write an Environmental Athletics blog for work and JustEnergy invited me to check out the greening initiatives they have taken with the Air Canada Centre and to… Read More…

Christmas With Anorexia

Dec21

Christmas With Anorexia

I had a post all drafted up for today, but I threw it out the window in lieu of something else much more important. Christmas seems to be a loaded time for many things; our tables are laden with wonderful food and our week is saturated with family events. It is a happy time. We… Read More…

When Runners Don’t Run

Dec14

Lately, I have not been running. Unusual, considering the fact that running was one of the founding reasons that I started this blog. Not surprising considering the amount of exercise classes that I am teaching as the holidays approach. I think it is normal for runners to go through a hiatus. I find my year… Read More…

Why I Blog

Nov21

Why I Blog

Recently, I went to The Wild Writers Literary Festival and as I only had a little patch of morning to devote to it, I went to The Art of Blogging with Kerry Clare. We talked about some of the obvious topics such as the irony of holding a class for blogging – it is unruly, unfinished… Read More…

Weekend Recap: An Ode to Sunday

Nov19

This weekend, I was thinking a lot about downtime. As Jesse dropped me off after a friend’s birthday party on Saturday night, I asked him (with a day of work, tutoring and writing behind me) “Guess what we are doing tomorrow?” “What?” he asked, with exhaustion and a clear tinge of irritation in his voice… Read More…

we actually needed to recover from it.

Nov7

we actually needed to recover from it.

I have been trying to get this post up for the last number of hours. Interruptions of phone calls and the first half of the post unexplainably vanishing leaves me with this: I have been walking around all day in an exhausted haze that can only come from returning triumphant from a really exceptional adventure….

…it seems like a long way to go for a concert.

Nov2

You know those last few days before you leave on a trip – the frenzied scrambling from one place to another, trying to get everything done and feeling fortunate when you show up at the right place, on time, with all buttons done up and proper papers in hand? Well that is this week for… Read More…

Day In the Life

Oct24

Day In the Life

I am nosy sometimes. I love when people do blog posts showing what they do in an average, simple day because so often we use blogging and social media to show the very best of ourselves and not the quiet, simple moments that make up most of the time in between. So I thought I… Read More…
