It wasn’t until today that I decided that I need to revitalize a old tradition from my childhood and reminiscent of the Thanksgiving or recent Christmas Dinners – Eating at the table. Eight weeks ago, we purchased a gorgeous dark wood pub style table and chairs for our kitchen. We live in a smallish condo. [...]
Swinging. I am sure everyone has heard this term before. If not, swinging is defined as a form of recreational, social, and sexual intercourse between consenting adults. Swingers commonly consist of male/female couples meeting with other male/female couples for sex and ongoing intimacy. My knowledge on what happens at these parties was very limited until [...]
Isn’t the Christmas season supposed to be a time of joy and happiness? I remember when I could barely wait for Christmas to come…all of the presents and good food…time to play with my cousins and run around the house stuffing my face with chocolate! Good times! But where did those good times go? Exactly [...]
I am sure you have heard the saying “Give and you shall receive”. This statement holds a lot of truth. I find the more I give, the better I feel about myself…and it makes me feel grateful that I am in a position to help. I know around Christmas time, charity and giving seem to [...]
I had read many times that men and women are different – physically and mentally. Sometimes my analytical side kicks in and I wonder how mentally different can we really be? We are all human!

My day started like any other. Run here do this…run there do that…oh wait, don’t forget to do that…better write that down on my daily list or else I will forget…run run run! I am constantly in a rush to get everyday normal stuff done. It dawned on me today – why am I stressing [...]

Today is Remembrance Day in Canada. As a child, I knew this was when the red poppy’s were worn and we did some sort of art work at school in reference to the war. My family didn’t know any war veterans so as a child, it was hard to understand what all the fuss was [...]

Aren’t we all searching for our soul mate? It would explain why so many internet dating sites exist! But do we really understand what the term “soul mate” means? Do we really know what we are asking for? Do we understand why we even need/want to have a soul mate? Those questions were running through [...]

I had been internet dating for so long and had so many awkward and embarrassing stories, my friends kept telling me I should write a book. Of course, it would be a comedy! Through all of my experiences, I have learned what works and what does not. This is how I have come to collect [...]

My son always made fun of the movie “Sixth Sense”. He would look at me and say “Mommy I see dead people”, then break out in his little giggle. I always thought that was funny, seeing as how I CAN see and hear others who have passed, but I would just laugh with him and [...]

Have you ever noticed that we are not schooled on how to have a successful marriage or how to be a good partner? On what qualities, we ourselves, must possess to be a good companion?
