I came to Canada in 1998 and connected quickly to the local UCC congregation in Berwick, a town of about 3000, because we needed support. The minister was very helpful, also in some legal issues we has at the beginning, but then he got divorced and the congregation didn’t like that. Discovering...

Oh, I love giving gifts as well- to people I know exactly what makes them happy- or helps them out in other ways. My son’s family home is getting a window replaced- I found them a reliable inexpensive carpenter… I give gifts out of order- when I find something I know that is just right. It’s...

Christmas is only three months away.I think I have mentioned that problem before, but I usually get invited flr a Christmas get together and it includes gift giving. One friend usually gets overboard with it. Another couple I get often useless things from and also never know what to come up with...

Ok, I mean besides getting sick and chronically ill. I just had a visit from an old acquaintance who I hadn’t seen for 28 years and only loosely held contact with. She is four years older than me. I was wondering if getting stuck in your own convictions/ mind/ interpretations is a “ natural” way...

Seriously ? I didn’t think such thing exists anymore in the UCC. Especially in Ontario…

I think they should not serve alcohol on flights. There is no need for that.

Went kayaking on Gaspereau lake. Nobody there but us. And one eagle. A few Canada geese. Beautiful. Now heading to friends to play Newfoundland gin.

Could you share that recipe- sounds good….

Went to a workshop learning twinning today in Pictou, then decided to go to PEI for another day, because the weather was so nice.Just back from the beach- heavy wind and waves. Beautiful sunset. Tomorrow more beach, walking trail, Cows outlet and a store making and selling mead ( pick up some...

Must be a Canada weather thing. I don’t know anybody with a birthday in September…

It was also the times when nobody would enter a school and start shooting or run into a crowd with a truck. Movies were harmless cowboy and indians stories and the the scariest were from Hitchcock. Not the constant show of brutality and gory dead bodies. We were “shooting” at each other with...

I am getting a visitor from Germany on Tuesday. Big house cleaning happening this weekend. I moved into my spare bedroom yesterday so she can have mine with the ensuite bathroom, avoiding to have to share the bathroom with the cat. Cat is loosing fur like crazy ( winter is coming). We will be...

This looks absolute disgusting, despite the veggies in it.

And why don’t you just write it on a piece of paper? That’s where my “”exhibitionistic” comes from. Per my definition “ someone who shows other people something ugly that they didn’t ask for and then keeps running”

Bette, I am getting a bit worried about your mood, you even start cursing the weather and seem to be off balance a bit. Hope you feel better soon. The thing with “ dying earlier because of our bad habits”, is actually misleading. Smokers used to say “ I don’t care if I die earlier”, but it’s...
