Hey everybody, I'm back! Finally, I've remembered how to long on to this site! Will write something soon, from Indonesia. That's where I've been living the past 6 weeks.

Bye-Bye A-Channel

Well, it's public! It's official! I am leaving the A-Channel! After almost 13 years, it was a difficult decision, but I think the right one. I will very shortly be leaving to work for the Canadian Red Cross in Indonesia, until next summer. Still keeping my house though. London is my home.

There's a big going away party being planned for any who can make it. At Joe Kool's Friday August 29th from 8 pm til 2 am! Hope to see you all there!

GOSSIP MONGERS

I can't be too pious about this, because I too fall victim to it, although I don't generally gossip about my friends. It disappoints me to hear that people I thought were my friends are talking behind my back, questioning coworkers about things they see, instead of approaching me. I guess it's just being human, but it leaves a bad taste in my mouth. :(

A Very Busy Weekend

My very busy weekend started with being able to sleep in a bit on Saturday morning. It was awesome! Not having to jump out of bed and race off to French class. Had a great breakfast, then pampered myself with a hair appointment. Last night, an amazing concert by Blue Rodeo. Pictures will follow. Gotta get out to more concerts. And for this one, I was like 5 feet away!

Today, off to Toronto to see the Blue Jay game, and for once, with me in the stands, they won! Beat Atlanta 1-0. Great seats. Hot dogs and beer.

Thinking about mom and her surgery tomorrow. She says she's okay with me not being there to get her to the hospital. I hope she means that, cause I'd make it happen if she needed me. I need all the angels out there looking out for her tomorrow okay?

Wonderful new chapters are about to unfold in my life. Very very exciting, but very hush hush for now. The world will know in due course.

Nighty-night...

There, figured out how to add multiple pictures. Isn't nature wonderful?

I've had a lot of visitors to my backyard this spring. If I can figure out how to put on more than one picture at a time, I'll do that. But here's a red cardinal enjoying a bath.

I've been watching a husband and wife dove couple this spring. They set up home on one of my downspouts, and recently added a new addition to their little family.

Mama sat there forever, but finally, both parents left, and I was worried the little one, I've named him Martin, had been abandoned. Maybe a way to get him to fly?

But, no, the parents returned yesterday, both actively involved in feeding little Martin.

It was awesome to watch.
