I’ve been thinking about it for a while. I think it’s time I went back to some Intermittent Fasting. I fell off the Intermittent Fasting wagon a few months ago. Actually, it’s closer to eight months or more. Maybe “fell off” is the wrong description. I had wanted to try something else. The problem is…
It’s funny that there’s only one day where we’re grateful for this planet that supports us. Every day should be Earth Day. But since today is a day to acknowledge the Earth, what are you going to do?
Nominations for the Western Ontario Drama League (WODL) came out last week. And the play that Deb directed, Who’s Afraid of Virginia Woolf? got a bunch of award nominations. It wasn’t Deb’s idea to do the play. Mark and Kelly, who played George and Martha, proposed the play to Michelle at Theatre Burlington. They knew…
Tickets are on sale now for Vocal Point’s Spring 2024 show: Feeling Good – A Sixties Snapshot. Unfortunately, I won’t be at the first show (May 31) because Burn opens on that day, also. But I should be able to sing in the second show. The music is a lot of fun. I highly recommend…

I have a spreadsheet where I’ve brainstormed some blog post ideas. And I’ve put tentative dates on when I want to write those posts. But when I go to write the post, I often don’t feel like writing about the topic scheduled for today. It should be simple. I should write the next thing on…
Yesterday, I was lamenting that there wasn’t a tool for me to stay on course with my goals. I wanted a goal-ometer or something to help me stay on track. Cue the woo woo music. This morning, I got an email. And it mentioned the WOOP process for achieving goals. The what? WOOP. It’s an…
You set a goal. And you move towards that goal. Why do we get distracted? Why do we veer off course? We have the best intentions. We WANT to do the thing… But… TV. Social Media. Laundry. Anything. There’s the analogy of airplanes being off course 90% of the time. And the only reason they…
I was reminded today of how fun it is to sing in a choir. I’ve had to take a hiatus from my choir (Vocal Point). Because I’m in a play and rehearsals are on the same nights as choir practice. But today, we were singing at a Senior’s Residence, and I was able to take…
This week focuses on Recovering a Sense of Faith. The final “week” of the creative recovery focuses on trust and mystery. Trust that things unfold they way they are supposed to. We should stop trying to control the outcome. Cameron wants us to surrender to the creative process. Follow the prompts that appear. And we…
