What Falls From The Sky

The dusk was falling, the night air mild as it streamed in the window here in my kitchen nook, binging on a new-fangled Holmes, a modern living in New York City Holmes, with a Dr. Watson not at all like any of the others that had come before. Elementary, and so I was feasting on Season One, and very much not paying attention to the … Continue reading What Falls From The Sky

Just For Me

Walked across the parking lot to catch my bus. Or rather wait for 20 minutes for my bus (as it turned out). Wondering if I had enough time to maybe go across to the LCBO and pick up a couple of bottles of that Hobgoblin beer I love. And then I changed my mind and decided I didn’t have enough time. You know how I … Continue reading Just For Me

About A Woman Named Millie

This year I feel my GrandmaD’s presence. I see her subtle influence so often of late. After Grandpa died, and she became a widow, she changed. She would only wear the colours black, white and red.

  • Of Superpower, Wealthy White Boys, Botox’d Stepford Poodles and Hope
    I think each of us has our own superpower. A thing we do with uncommon skill. It often, I’ve discovered, takes a good while to find, or accept, or understand, or feel. It’s different in everyone, how it manifests, and when. Often, or just as often, we are tricked into believing that our superpower is the thing we are maybe most known for. However, over …
  • Lessons on Resilience from Canadian Solidarity
    I’m an American citizen who grew up in Canada—because why settle for a normal childhood when you can have a frosty mix of hockey, maple syrup, and universal healthcare? My dad is American and my mom is Canadian. The one element that defines both families, is generations of ancestors in the same place, on the same land, going back to well before the founding of …
  • From Doomscrolling to Hope: A Journey Through Canadian Patriotism
    ... where I talk about having a mental space to vent, diving into thoughts on politics and the chaos in the land of my birth. Reflecting on American arrogance and the MAGA movement while contrasting it with Canadian values of unity and strength.
