Rest & Relaxation

Regular readers already know that I have had a medical procedure this past week, and will be taking some time off of blogging to recuperate. I hope to be back with regular entries here, and on my other blogs early next week. Thank you to all of our friends in the blogosphere for your kind words, and positive healing energies....they are appreciated. :D

Blog Your Blessings

I'm sorry, but this is going to be a very short blessing this week. All went well with the radiation drink on Thursday, but I'm pretty wiped out, and not up to typing too much today. For the regular readers who have said prayers, and well wishes THANK YOU, you are my blessing as I am on the road to recovery. :D

Thanks for visiting, and hope you are having a wonderful weekend, and week ahead!

Old Farmhouse

An old, uninhabited farmhouse near Owen Sound, Ontario. This photo was taken Sunday March 8th 2009. The house itself captured my imagination last summer when I saw it during a road trip to Sauble Beach.

Please note WW is now played all week.

The photo posted above was taken outside of our local flower shop that is down the street from where we live.

Today, my blessing is the beautiful, warm, and sunny weather we have been having over here in Southern Ontario for the last couple of days. Despite my body feeling like crap as I await the treatment for Graves Disease (only 5 more days) the lovely weather has put my mind into a much happier mood. Everywhere I look people tend to be in generally better spirits around my neighbourhood.

It looks like the snow, and extreme cold may finally be over, and Spring has sprung!

Thanks for visiting, and hope you are having a wonderful weekend, and week ahead!

Happy 175th Birthday Toronto



Toronto Coat Of Arms

Toronto is the largest city in Canada and the provincial capital of Ontario. It is located on the north-western shore of Lake Ontario. I was born, raised, and continue to live in Toronto, which I dearly love as it is truly a cosmopolitan city!

Wishing my home, and city a very happy 175th birthday today!

With the exception of the pyramids the funeral mask of Tutankhamen is probably the most easily recognizable, and identifiable images of ancient Egypt.
