My ramblings and wanderings through life

  • There are times when I am reminded to stop and take stock of my life and relationships. Yesterday (Friday) was one of those moments… R went out to swim on the roof and came back shortly after leaving as he didn’t realize that they had implemented a new security system where we have to use our parking cards to access the pool. On his way back he heard some commotion in an apartment…

  • Yes, that’s right, it’s that time of year again – when the weather starts to break from the intolerable heat and people come out of summer hibernation. It’s also a great time to plant seeds to get them germinating for harvest in a couple of months when the weather is cool, but glorious! Now that I’m starting to actually be able to enjoy my weekends and relax a bit, I decided it was…

  • It took me quite a while to complete my latest masterpiece at pottery class, but at last my hard work has paid off! Although I have no real intention of showing my work at the next pottery exhibit, I took on the theme “Teapots” for one of my projects. While I had made a version before, I wasn’t satisfied with it as it has been moved to a shelf rather than being used…

  • It’s been a very busy start to the fall and new academic year. One of the reasons is because the major government higher education institutions were required to implement the use of iPads. This came about at the end of the last academic year, but the fun really began when we came back for this year. Since work began in early September, I have been deeply involved in faculty training and also attending…

  • I thought it might be good to start off with a post on my “ups and downs” as it has been a while since I wrote anything about it. By the way, this is what I call my ‘bipolar’ tendencies. My therapist and I have agreed that I definitely have a pattern and whether or not we put a label on it doesn’t really matter – so I prefer this term for now.…

  • To start off fresh, I decided that the site needed a bit lightening up as the black was starting to feel a bit too dark. While I like the artsy look it gives my photos, I felt a little change wouldn’t hurt anybody. 😀 It’s been a busy time, but things are starting to fall into place (get it? fall…haha). So, upcoming posts will include: *restarting my container garden *adventures in the kitchen…

  • Well, it’s only a day away from October and I see that I managed one day of blogging in the entire month. That should tell you what my month has been like… This weekend has been the first one that I have felt was like a real weekend and it is passing all too quickly with still a number of things to do… So, with that, I bid adieu until October, when I…

  • It’s been ages! I’m still alive, but been busy…. Not sure when I’ll come up for air to write regularly again, but will return eventually…. That’s all for now! -T 😀

  • _Wrecked:  When a Broken World Slams into your Comfortable Life_ by Jeff Goins I cannot seem to pass up 99cent books. Plus, following Jeff Goins on Twitter and Facebook makes it harder to ignore opportunities to read books on sale. It’s a great marketing scheme for him and a bonus for readers like me. 😉 A short two-day read, this is an inspirational, motivational Christian-based book that encourages us to step beyond ourselves…

  • _Eon_ by Greg Bear I haven’t had as much time to read as I did early on in the holiday, but I still have been spending time each day with a book. When I was getting low on things to read, I put out a call on Facebook and got some recommendations of different novels. One of them was this one. _Eon_ is a 1991 science-fiction novel that is rather complex to follow…
