Dear Mother Nature...what is happening?

So I have heard quite a bit of commentary with regards to this hurricane that is supposed to hit our city today and last for a few days. I am not trying to suggest that our beloved Mother Nature isn't one to contend with...however...I do feel that the level of hysteria is a bit much. Wouldn't you? I even had a friend text me last night saying "if you can, get as far north as you can to avoid the coming hurricane. It's going to get really bad!". LOL!!!! Really? I need to vacate my home and leave my work behind for this? Again....really? Forgive my ignorance...but if it was to present itself as border line catastrophe...wouldn't we have had an evacuation notice? Aside from hearing things from friends and family...I haven't heard anything suggesting this ultimate severity on the news or on TV  Further more, every time the weather people make such statements implying things are going to get bad....it never really does. Forgive me for not taking this seriously. LOL!! I probably just jinxed it and I can see my house crumbling under the torrential down pour. GREAT!!!! Jokes!

How was everyone's weekend? I presume you all had some Halloween festivities to attend to. I went to my dear dear friend's bash and had an absolute blast. I haven't dressed up in costume for 2 years and I really do have a disdain for it but....my girlfriend insisted and I obliged. I have to say...I did do a great job with it too. Got tons of kudos for the outfit. Check it out...


Here's some exciting news; I have a date tonight!!!! Yup...I do!!! It's been a long while since I have gone on a date and it's been a long while since I have been intrigued enough to accept an offer. Let's see how this pans out!!! I am going to wish myself some luck! LOL

Last Friday I took my little nugget to an audition for a play of sorts. It really wasn't a true audition, just an opportunity to meet with the creator/director of the show. He's pretty amazing and I love what he's trying to do. The show is based on a political platform about the United Nations. Rather than each country being represented by a human figure, in this play, each country is represented by a Dachshund. Hopefully one of them will be my dog. The meet/greet/auditions were being held all week. The show isn't till next year March. I am supposed to hear back from the production team either today or tomorrow. Let's cross our fingers.

This week is going to be action packed. I am trying my best to take an over night adventure with my dear Lady friend to Niagara Falls on Saturday. I have it booked off already....hoping that my girlfriend can make it. I could really use an over night of debauchery. LOL!!!

Ok folks....that's all she wrote! xo P

Monday, bloody Monday!

Monday. I don't necessarily dislike Mondays. I think I just don't like the actual word Monday. Or maybe it's something else about Mondays. Either way...it is Monday and....well....the start of the week. Great!

I trust that everyone had a good or great weekend. If you didn't...that sucks and I am sorry. If you did...wonderful! Good for you. For those of you that didn't get any action (fun times) this past weekend...don't fret, Halloween is around the corner.

What can I say about Halloween? Just like most other holidays...I thoroughly enjoy the festivities...the energy, the excitement, the parties. And...just like other holidays...I don't really care for the actual event itself. With Halloween...I have zero interest in dressing up and going out parading in an outfit that is completely uncomfortable and awkward. I have made a solid effort in the years passed....even went as far as to spend a pretty penny on a sort of kick ass outfit. I did this last year and didn't even get the outfit on to go to a party. Instead....it's sitting in my closet. I was invited to my dear friend's Halloween party this coming Saturday. She said it's mandatory dress up. Of course my first reaction was one of disappointment and annoyance followed by..."oh well...at least I have an outfit!". What is it...you might ask? Ha!!! Take a guess! What do chicks usually do with this annual event? Dress up like little 'hoochies' for the most part. I feel like it's an opportunity for 'most' ladies to go balls out and get extra tacky. Oh well....their choice. So back to the big question...what's my outfit? Greek Goddess! LOL Yes...I know I am not Greek. So...I will call the outfit "Latin Goddess". Sound good? I will be sure to take pictures and post some next week.

This week is steady. Not exemplary of my typical chaotic weeks. Thank goodness! I have to really focus my energy on 3 properties I am trying to sell. Need some serious luck her folks. Can we all please send some love to the universe....hope and pray that I sell these things ASAP. In fact....this is what I am going to say;

Friends, family, Angels, Universe...I ask you, please...let me sell these 3 properties inside the next 2 weeks. I really really need to move them. Sending you ALL of my love to you. Need you!

What else can I share? Had a pretty awesome weekend. Spent Friday night with my bff...the one that I always say is an angel put on this earth just for me....lol! We did a Twilight movie marathon, ate Chinese food and had ceasers and wine. Brilliant! Saturday night went to a dear friend's bday party. Always a pleasure. Did some partying with my dear buddy Ace and then passed. Sunday....caught up with another bff of mine. Action packed and filled with great company. Loved it!

Well...want to wish everyone a Happy and safe Halloween! Enjoy! Catch ya next week! xoxo

Yawn.....

Doesn't this weather just make you want to snooze or sleep? Dark, gray, cold....I could easily crawl into bed right about now...or get on my couch and snuggle with my little nugget. Either one sounds appealing to me. However...no can do! Monday is the day to set the tone for productivity in the week. It has been a very hectic day and as such...I wonder...does this mean the rest of my week will be this way? Looks like it. I am already booked up for the week...and it's only Monday. Holy Moses!

It is a special week/month. Tons of birthdays happening. This week alone there are 4; my sister, my cousin and 2 dear friends. Ay ay ay. This is going to burn a hole in my pocket. FACK!!! LOL They are worth it and so...as always...I will go the mile to celebrate their birthdays. Speaking of bday festivities...taking one of my dear friends to see Cirque Du Soleil. It looks so friggin amazing...I am over the moon excited to see it. YAY!!!!

Random thought; I AM SO TIRED of POF. I am totally at my whits end with that piece of pooh site. I have zero energy left for making any connections on there. I thought I had 2 solid ones and then...they turned into pooh. I think that site should be called 'Plenty of Poo'! Cause that's what's there...a whole lot of pooh. LOL

This past weekend I got to spend some quality time with my mom and a dear family friend. We went out for dinner to this resto that we always go to together. Had a brilliant meal accompanied by 2 glasses of a mind blowing Malbec. Yum yum yum! After a ton of laughs..the night ended delightfully. Saturday night...I was in the company of one of my bestest friends. I always call her my angel because she is my angel. I mean...I strongly believe that she is an angel...on this planet to look after me. LOL!!! I love this woman. We had a meal at this resto called Lee on King St. HOLY MOSES BATMAN....killer food there. I would STRONGLY recommend it but know in advance...it costs a pretty penny. Totally worth it though! From there we hit up a bar with a kick ass outdoor patio with heating lamps and a fire. We sat next to the fire and had some drinks. Brilliant time! From there we went to a club. I went to this club for my 25th birthday except back in the day it was called something else. So now...it's called Cobra and the bouncers let my bff and I in. They ask for a $20 cover to which my reply was "excuse me? Ya right I am going to pay $20 cover. I am from suburbia!" After a chuckle from everyone around...one bouncer took us to the back door and let us into another club...cover free. Ha!!! It's good to be us! LOL That club is called Brant House. Had a couple bevies there and then moved onto yet another bar. The name of that one escapes me at the moment. I will have to look it up because it is gorgeous inside and it is definitely a repeat.

I haven't got much more to report as of now. I am just working working working away. Doing my best to get in some fun time...and I have officially brought my workout schedule back up to par; 5 workouts a week. Lovin it!

Till next week folks! xo P

UNLOAD!

So it is Tuesday...a short week for those of you that work regular hours...lol! I didn't have to work yesterday although I did spend the whole day looking after personal things like cleaning my car and house. Man...that was a full day of cleaning. Ugggghhhh....at least I got it done and now my spotless Rocco (car) is happy and my home is clean and tidy. Feels good I tell ya! With the rest of the weekend...I did get my party on on Saturday night. Was in the company of one of my dearest friends...always a treat to visit with her. We had some drinks with her fiance and had a blast. She's getting married this summer coming...so we had a lot to discuss as I am sure you can understand...lol!

What can I share with you today?

Seeing as I have hit a bit of a plateau with my workouts...I needed to make a serious decision re: my next step in terms of getting fit. As of the spring I was at 5 workouts a week and then that fell by the way side big time over the summer...naturally! Now...it's time to step it up again. My long term goal is to be at a target weight for next August...my bff's wedding. Until then...I have one other goal in place which is for March. Until March I am going to BUST ASS literally. If by the time March comes around, I haven't seen what I want to see...then I am taking a monster step in a different direction. Not going to get into that now. Today was workout #2 of the week. I am about to step into the world of 'spinning' come tomorrow. EEEEKKK! A little terrified for that. Everyone I talk to tells me it is 'deadly'. Well...I can't imagine anything more deadly than my trainer's Tuesday morning kickboxing class...but I guess I will soon find out! Ha!

Dating life? What a joke!!!! So I am still on POF and Match. It really is amazing to me when I hear stories about people that find their partners on these sites. I mean...Match has yielded me NOTHING. I mean..I have had conversations with dudes on there...but only 1 official date. I think it could be that I am not interested in putting in another friggin minute into these things but....then I am told not to close myself off. Now...with POF...lots of convo action there...but when it comes to dates...I either have to bail on them because of work or I am in no mood to extend myself to commuting for a date. Why do I need to commute you might ask? Well...for the most part these dudes are out of the city or are in a neighbouring city and they don't drive. FACK! Talk about TOO MUCH work. Ugggggghhhh.....I just took a deep sigh while writing this. Just thinking about it is exhausting.

Next topic...

Saw 2 movies as of late; Looper and Taken 2.

Looper....LOVED IT! My goodness Joseph Gordon-Levitt.....love that kid! He's friggin amazing...and damn cute to boot. Great story line....incredibly wild movie. Taken 2? Not so great! Not nearly as great as the first movie. Liam Neeson...the dude killed this role. He's awesome with action...I mean it! The story just couldn't pull the weight even though Liam could. He did carry the movie....it just wasn't enough. So many movies to go and see these days....maybe I will hit another one up this weekend coming.

So...I think I may start the count down to my trip right now.....YAY!!!! So...10 weeks to go till I fly to Belgium to visit with my bff. I happen to arrive on her birthday...again. I went to visit her 2 years ago...exact same day. Man...am I good or what?!! LOL So ya...I arrive right on her birthday and then I spend a couple days with her before I boogie to Holland's Amsterdam for a couple days. I am going to be visiting with an old old friend from little school. He lives there with his lovely wife. During my little stay in Amsterdam...I believe I will be going shopping for a wedding dress with my bff. Not too sure. I will be venturing to a town in northern Holland to visit the tallship I sailed 10 years ago. OMG....I can't believe it has been 10 years since I have sailed. All good though...cause on this trip...my bff and I are spending 4 days sailing of the coast of Spain...The Canary Islands. It brings tears to my eyes to know that I am going to get back on a boat and actually sail. Uggggghhhh....I can't wait! The level of excitement is almost too much for me to bear...lol! Almost!

Well folks...I feel as though I wrote a mini novel.....lol....ok that was an over statement....but you get the idea. Till next week kiddos.....xo P

Re-Assessment!

Hey you....long time no see!! LOL

So..it is clear that writing every day is NOT feasible for me anymore...what with my typical 12 to 15 hour work days and such. So...now I am setting a new goal; blog once a week. I think that is a fair commitment to make. Wouldn't you agree?

So here I am! It is Monday and I already feel like I have accomplished a whole week worth of shit. LOL!!! Yes...that is how busy I am. I want to make it clear that I am not complaining. I actually love it. A lot of things have fallen by the way side because of this like my workouts.....down to one a week instead of the 3 to 4 I was getting in before. My dating life has crumbled almost completely. Over the past few weeks I think I had a handful of dates booked but I had to cancel all of them because I had to work. I have had to bail on a few obligations due to work and I can see that people (friends and whomever else) are getting pissed with me. I do get it! But...at the end of the day...this is my career and it is my life. So...I apologize to all of those who have suffered from my absence. I will make it up to you....when I can!!! One love! LOL

What else is going on...you would ask?
Hmmmm....well...I went to see a KISS tribute band play on Saturday night. SO FUN!!!! Check out the pics!



They were really amazing!! Who knew?!!! LOL

This week I get to see one of my dearest girlfriends whose coming into town from Montreal...super excited for that!!!

And that's about it folks!!! I will be sure to have more juicy gossip for you next week!!! xo P

It's about time!

It has been awhile since I have posted a blog.

I can't even say that it's because I am overly busy. I mean....I am overly busy but...I think in the back of my mind...I just don't want to share what is happening in my life right now. There is so much going on...both business and personally related and each component has become so private...I just wouldn't know what to say anymore here.

I would love to update you on a relationship that I have just terminated as of last week. I will speak of it in light terms. I am certain that this person can find my blog and I have zero interest in stirring things up. With that said, we have been friends for a long time...more than 3 years. Over these 3+ years....there have been repeated brutal events. Each time I would state the situation at hand and we would come to some resolution. Not long after these discussions about bad/negative behavior this person would revert right back to Square One...totally ignoring what was discussed and as a result...another fight would occur. How many times can I possibly go through the same event? Over and over and over and over again! It is fuckn exhausting! I am exhausted! I don't have the time or energy to deal with such an exhausting person who is supposed to be my friend but is rather a dead weight to me. This person brings me more grief than happiness. This person is more trouble than good times. This person is damaging to my well being and after 3 years of brutality....I AM DONE!!!!!!

Next; I am sure you don't remember...but I went out on 2 (AMAZING!) dates with this guy that I met on POF. He was the outdoorsy kind of guy....tall/handsome/ginger...gorgeous/intelligent and all those good things. I definitely fell hard for the guy and after those 2 dates...he disappeared completely. I am not the kind of person to go begging or even to put closure on things. Since he sold me out....I expected that that was over. I never called him to find out what happened nor to give him an ear full....although there were times that I definitely wanted to. Please note; this episode was 4 months ago. Well...last Friday that DOUCHE BAG texted me with an apology. Ha!!!! Can you believe it? All along I thought he high tailed it because he read my blog and thought that I was maybe too involved and he wasn't prepared for that. The reality is....he was seeing someone else...and made a decision to date only one.....the other one! Turns out she is a lesbian and tried to have sex with his ass!!! LMAO Karma folks!! It is real...watch out!

For some reason...the Russian stripper whom I have maintained a friendship with for about 4 months now...has come to a new level. I am not certain what that level is....but....he is acting differently towards me. This is throwing me off BIG TIME! Now...we all know that I have been working on a 'special project'. As per usual I can't get into it now...but....there is a connection between my project and the Russian stripper. I feel like he is working harder at maintaining this friendship than he ever has. Why? I have no idea! I didn't do anything differently. I haven't said anything to him that would illicit some reaction....as in increasing his level of communication with me. I DON'T KNOW!!!! It really doesn't matter either. It is just mentally throwing me off.

My business and my special project are in full force. This makes me happy. I have really been devoting almost all of my time to my work. I am ok with this. If I freed up anymore time than I already do I would be forced to feel that absence of a man in my life. I am sitting on the fence as of late....with my single life. I love it because it gives me so much freedom to be me and do whatever I want to do. I have 2 trips to Europe next year. The first trip is 2 weeks starting at the end of December into January; hitting up Belgium, Holland and hopefully Italy. The second on is in August of next year....my bff's wedding. I am participating in 3 weddings next year....and of course my special project will materialize and be exposed by June of next year. Next year is going to be INSANE!!!! This combined with work...leaves very little time to nurture a relationship. On the other hand....I am not getting any younger. At 32....time is moving fast. It would be a treat to meet the rock star of a man that I am hoping to find for a life-time partner. With that said....I am still on these friggin horrible dating sites. They all suck balls!!!!

Let's lighten up the tone here....I am having a blast with my dear dear friends. Thank the lords for them. Seriously!!! Of course I need to put my family into this thought. My sister and her boys are keeping me busy as well. Was with them last night....spent some much needed quality time with my older nephew and got to snuggle with the twins. This is the light at the end of the day.

Well....this seems to be a long enough blog for one day! I hope it's not another bunch of weeks before I am back here!

Loves to you, the universe, my angels!!! xo P

Grinning from ear to ear!

Well Hello there Stranger,

LOL!!! It has been awhile since I have posted...and of course so much has happened...it is ridiculous!

If you can...just try to envision me sitting at my desk...rubbing my hands together....like I am about to get down to business....lmao.....cause here we go;

I have new eye candy to oogle whenever I so chose to. He is a stripper....yes he is! He is at the club that I no longer have any interest in attending...unless of course I want to spend some quality time with my bff who's bf works there or to simply catch up with the regular gang that is there. You could never know or understand what is appealing to me to participate in this kind of entertainment. It is simply too hard to explain. Just know that I have more fun than one can handle at these establishments. How can you put a price on laughing your ass off for hours while sipping on cocktails and enjoying knock out fabulous male bodies while in the company of good friends? Sounds too good to be true, right? LMAO

Sold a house yesterday. Yuppers! I know I don't really discuss my business on here. I try to avoid it because as much as I am doing well, I am a sort of private person when it comes to my personal successes in life. I am going to celebrate this sale. Just as a small side note here...the young man who bought the house that my Mom and I sold...happens to be a looker. It was a real pleasure working with him. He is a tad bit younger, very charming and I have virtually met his entire family minus 2 brothers. I might add, his parents loved me! LMAO!!!! I would love to see a psychic for some insight!

This weekend is going to be action packed...as always! Tomorrow night putting in some quality time with my dear dear gf at the 'club'...lol! Saturday I have to work all day and then Saturday night? Not entirely sure what's happening there. Sunday I am hitting up the Bridal show to do some recon for my 'special project' that is coming along nicely if I may say so myself.

I love my life!

Plans!

Happy Thursday folks. As much as I would like to say....I wish it was Friday....I am happy that it is not. Why? Well...I do have some kick as plans for tomorrow night....dinner and movie with my Momma however, Saturday is going to be a shit show. I have to work ALL DAY. At least I get to cap off the night with my dear Lady friend with some serious awesome times....including naked men....more specifically my Russian hottie. LMAO

Thankfully Sunday and Monday (which is a HOLIDAY) are relatively quiet....for now! I do expect to do some work but...it won't be quite like Saturday. I hope!!! Eeeekkkk!!! I think I just jinxed myself. LOL

What's happening these days? SO MUCH!!! I really need a nap! LOL

So...I am working all day...then I have to go the city...GRRRRRR....for a couple showings and then....I get spend some much needed one on one time with my bff...dinner and drinks!!!! Her man just moved in with her and this is actually sort of major. They have been together for about 4 years and now....cohabitation. So fun!!! Congrats to them!

I missing my little nugget nephews. My sister/her hubby and the 3 little ones went to Wasaga Beach today for a day filled with fun/sun/beach and water. So wonderful! I wish I could have joined them...no can do! Work work work! Thankfully....they will be a relatively permanent fixture at my Mom's over the weekend so I will make sure to get my fill of the little turds. LOL I saw them for a brief minute this morning as they were on their way up north. The two little ones were passed out...and the older brother....rearing to go! Man....I love my family!

Just a side note here; I had my one on one with my trainer on Tuesday. My arms/triceps are killing me STILL!!! I just went to pick up my cup of coffee....and OUUUUUUUCH!!!! It burns baby...it burns! All good in the hood!

That's all I got for today! xo P

Monday, August 27, 2012

Updates....and things!

Happy Monday world!

It is Monday, right? LOL

What can I tell you today? So much....so so so much!

First of all, want to vent a bit. I was working on Saturday with my real estate biz. Was presenting an offer on a house at which point I was exposed to some seriously undesirable/unethical behaviors. Due to my obligations of ethical behavior...I really can not disclose much more than that. Just know....that I have witnessed some wicked mediocrity which I am certain there is a ton of. FACK!!!!! Bastards I tell ya!

Moving along, I had lunch with a fabulous woman today! We had some much needed discussions about a number of topics and we covered some major ground in terms of our 'special project'. Feels good to be on track and in production. With that said, we are spending Saturday evening with each other to do some more research and to celebrate our progress....like we need a reason!! LMAO

Things are moving so well with life/work/fun/play/leisure/festivities etc. I caught up with a dear dear friend of mine early last week. Always a pleasure to visit this friend. Could actually spend more time with him....if I had it! LOL Anyways...I downloaded all of the shit going on with me as of the past 3 to 4 months...cause that's how often I catch up with him....and I literally had him in stitches. He told me to write a book! I told him....I will once I have my special project in play.

Here is some juicy gossip for ya....I am planning a trip to Europe for January! Yes...yes I am!!!! Here's the idea; go to Belgium to visit my bbbbbbbff for a couple days then visit Holland for a few days and then Croatia for a few days. Why am I taking this trip? For shits and giggles. Why did I choose those countries to visit? I am going to Holland to visit a ship I sailed on years ago...and I have a friend who lives in Amsterdam whom I haven't seen in years....hitting up 2 birds with one stick. As for Croatia....there is an agenda there....can't share that yet. Sorry!

Some other juicy gossip...sort of....I am working on something so special right now. I would love nothing more than to share this with you....but....I can't! Man....I suck balls today! LMAO I don't literally suck balls....meant that metaphorically....I think...or is that sarcastically? Meh....whatever! This very special thing is going to come to life next August. I know I know....so far away! Well....let's just say that it will be played out for my bff's wedding next year. Will be working on it tonight with my buddy Ace cause he rocks.

What else? I have been spending some brilliant quality time with my new nephews who are just so dang yummy....man....it's almost not right!!! Little hands, little fingers, little feet and little toes, little legs and arms, little button noses, squishy cheeks....yup....yummy yum yum!!! I will say this....for being such little nuggets...after holding them for hours on end....they start to feel heavy. Great way to build muscles. LMAO!!!

To quote the one and only....Porky Pig:  "Th'-th'-th'-th'-th'-th'-that's all folks!  


Monday, August 20, 2012

Oh Monday...

Well...I had an adventurous weekend...yes I did! I would love to tell you that it was exceptional...but I can't! I went out Friday night...had a blast....finally got to hear myself sing in a recording studio session. How cool is that? Super cool!!! Loved it! I did have A WAY too much to drink...which really screwed me up on Saturday. As a result...I ended up missing to see Sublime with Rome's concert. Uggggghhhhh....so gutted about that actually!!! My friend who was supposed to join me...had to bail sadly. I totally understand why though. I did try to recruit other friends but everyone was either busy or away out of town....sad! I also tried to give them away entirely....unsuccessful there as well. FACK....it just wasn't meant to be!

I did manage to gather myself enough to hit up this boat cruise with my bff. That was a ton of fun. Loved it. Anytime I am out on the water is a great time. From there...went to another venue....this was a totally different experience for me and not only was this particular portion of the evening a completely new adventure...it was mangled by bad vibes from some of the other attendees. As a result...not anything good came from this. My bff and I hightailed it out of there but not after the damage was done. Granted...I know this story is vague however...I would be very stupid to embellish on the events of that situation. No need to do that! Met some new friends...that is a plus.

So...in about 15 minutes....I am going to get my ass kicked by my personal trainer. I haven't seen her in 2 weeks.....ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!! I am genuinely nervous and sort of scared. LMAO!!! Wish me luck folks!!!

xo P


Friday, August 17, 2012

Oh Noodles....

Yay....it's Friday!!!!

What an action packed day I have had! Ay ay ay!!!! Seriously though...I am exhausted. Totally and completely!!! Forget about exhaustion...tomorrow is another insane day/night. I want to tell you...its been 2 weeks since I have seen my trainer. Aside from missing her dearly....my body is vying for some pain.

Let's go Monday..Let's go! LOL Can't wait for her to kick my ass.

On a completely unrelated note; tomorrow I get to go and see my fav band....Sublime with Rome. I am so excited. However, I have been told that my second commitment of the day which starts at 7pm is getting in the way of my seeing my fav band. Apparently, the band I want to see is headlining thus they will play last. There are 4 other bands to play first and....I may not get to see their show. This makes me sad! Now...I am sure you are thinking....why not just show up late for the second engagement....to which my reply is....if I don't get to the boat for 7pm sharp....it will leave without me. The end result of my missing this event is a very bad one....my bff will literally beat the shit out of me. LOL Of course....I could actually beat the shit out of her....but let's be real for a second. I have an obligation to uphold....and I am a woman of my word. Most of the time! LOL

So there it is folks....the challenge of my weekend. Ha!!!

What else can I share? Hmmmmm! You know me....I have so much more to share....but....I unfortunately am unable to at this point. Still working away on my SPECIAL project. Making awesome progress there. Love it!! Oh here's something....I had a brilliant night with my boys last night....my two darling friends. Love them dearly! One lives in B.C. and is leaving on Sunday sadly. Only got one evening with him. Shucks!!! As for Ace....we all know who Ace is. Love the kid! Him and I are have some work to do in terms of my contribution to my bff's wedding next year. Will explain in more depth next week.

Well folks....I have to run. Till next weekend....hope you all have a brilliant weekend! xo P

Thursday, August 16, 2012

On to the next chapter.

And off she goes....!!! Yup...I just sent off my bff...back to Belgium she goes alongside her fiance. What a treat these past couple weeks have been...having her here. Of course I didn't get to spend as much time with her as I would have liked...but that was to be expected. When you live on another continent, over an ocean....and you come back home...one is bound to be bombarded by familial obligations as well as friend commitments. I did get her and fiance all to myself yesterday...more or less. LOL! We went to a Toronto soccer game...that ended in a tie against Portland's Timbers. Great game!!! From there we went to the Distillery District for a snack and drinks. Loved it! So fun! We all got up this morning, I made coffee and breakfast while the two of them got their shit together in preparation to travel back to Europe. Then....I dropped them off at the train station. I hate to say 'Goodbyes'! I really do! All I could do was remind myself that I will be seeing her soon...inside the next year and then definitely again for her wedding in August...in Europe. I have to plan a bachelorette party in there somewhere....lol!!! All good things!

And now...back to reality somewhat...lol! I still have a pretty hectic week remaining. Still trying to think how I can be more efficient with my day on Saturday....with so much to do and so little time. EEEEKKK!!!!

Sunday...I get to spend some MUCH needed quality time with a dear dear friend of which...I haven't seen in ages it feels like. We are doing brunch and having a well deserved pow wow to boot. Need the girly time. Speaking of girly time....I have just made plans with one of my angel bffs. So great to make a date with her. I am over the moon about it. Can't wait for next Tuesday. Yippie! LOL

On a last note; apparently my bff man friend who lives in B.C. is coming home today. I missed him on his last 2 visits...not by my doing. I better catch up with him today....or else! LOL

Till tomorrow folks....xo P

I love Facebook!

Yup...today I am professing my love for Facebook! I think I always loved it....right from the get go. I haven't always loved the updates or changes...but you can't have it all, can you? LOL!

Why do I love Facebook? Hmmmm......

For the obvious reasons; get to stay in touch with people near and far, get to share everything that I want to share with the people I care about and I suppose another reason would be because it keeps me up to date with friends that would otherwise fall by the way side.

Why do I especially love Facebook today? Well....I made some new friends over the week that I was away. My bff's extended network; fiance/his family and friends....have now become apart of my network on Facebook. I just spent the past 10 minutes looking at one friend's page in particular. He just added me. It definitely put a smile on my face. He is a tad younger....super super super cool. He is from Europe but has learnt Spanish and thus that has increased the cool factor by a lot. LOL! All that aside, it is such a treat to get to learn about people....see their past a little bit, see them in their element...I did have a couple chuckles and there were a couple shockers in there....in a good way. Just so fun!!

I am probably riding on a happy train. First thing this morning I got some friggin awesome news from one of my angels. I was with him last night discussing my future business venture....that I can not discuss on here yet.  Every time I meet with him....I get even further along than I had been before with my thoughts, ideas, and as I have said before....things are coming into place. I refuse to rush this....it has to be perfect. So...I am just one step further folks. LOVE IT!!

And let's not forgot that today is a big day. I have 2 major business meetings; one at 1pm and the other at 4pm. My evening is bless with a soccer game in the company of my bff and her fiance. There is another guest joining us...but I am unable to mention who this is at this time. Sorry!!!

So there it is folks....I am on my third day in a row posting.....Whoo hooooo!!!! LOL

Tuesday, August 14, 2012

And it continues....

Well folks...what can I say today?

I have 3 sets of tickets in my wallet....tickets to a soccer game, tickets to a concert and tickets to a booze cruise (boat cruise)...all for this week! In fact, Saturday is the double whammy; concert at 3pm and then booze cruise at 7pm. Oh my noodle!!! LOL

Guess who I get to go see....?


How exciting is this? Seriously!!! I got to see Sublime on my birthday last year....blew my mind. Here I go again...lol!!! Yippie!

I have had to do some mental exercises to maintain focus. Sort of bombarded by a high level of excitement over the past couple months...and it is only going to continue through till the the end of next year...lol!!!

Tomorrow is a big day for me in a couple different ways; business and personal. So...I really ought to get down to it....till tomorrow....fingers crossed! xo

Monday, August 13, 2012

Way to much....

Happy Monday folks.

I know I know....I have been totally MIA for awhile now. Yes...it is true. Life happens though....what can I say?!!! I have just spent the past 9 days celebrating a very joyous occasion....the engagement of my best friend. It was actually a bit bigger than that....it was the Canadian version of her wedding. See....she lives in Europe with her European fiance. They came down here for a month and have been touring. After the party last Saturday, she rented a cottage so that everyone could spend time with her and her man. Naturally, I was there for the entire time. Loved every second of it. What a treat I tell you. Aside from her family and friends, was her fiance's family and friends. Such a beautiful team he has. Great great parents and brothers and such incredible friends. I really can't express how wonderful this whole event was and it was just a prequel to the events of next year....the wedding! Ay ay ay!! LOL

Before my best friend and her man leave, I will get to spend one more night with them this Wednesday. This should be an adventure to say the least. Why you ask? A little birdy....a dear dear friend of mine gave me tickets to a TFC  game (soccer for those of you who don't know the acronym). This will be followed by some other kind of adventure....still working this out. Will let you know!

On a totally unrelated note; I have gotten to spend some time with my absolutely wonderful little nephews. OMG....they are so delightful. Kind of want to just squeeze the shit out of them....or nibble on their perfect little feet and fingers. LOL!! I was with them on Saturday. Spent time with both of them. Little nuggets they are.

Man....just had a little snuggle session with my poochie.....I friggin missed the kid. I will say this though...I think he missed me more. For the first time in his 3.5 years of life...and many travels on my end....he is demonstrating some signs of separation anxiety. Not good! Upon my return, he had a short session of anxiety where he was shaking....it was weird and totally threw me off. As soon as I brought him home he was better and then yesterday....totally back to normal. While I was away....my Mom says he was ok. Will definitely keep an eye on this for the future.

What else....I got some killer sun over the week. I love the sun! A tan....makes anyone look incredible. Not to toot my own horn....but getting a tan is so so great for my skin. Ok...maybe not in the long run but for now...it clears up any blemishes I might have on my face...as for my body....the tan rocks! LOVE IT! I wish I could have this colour ALL THE TIME!

Well folks, I have over a week's work to catch up on....gotta boogie! Till next time xo P

Doing my best!

I know that my online presence is seriously lacking. What can I say or do? My life is chaos as of late. Always knew it would be considering all of the events and activities happening. Needless to say...when I find a minute to fulfill my deepest need to share...I am here in a heart beat.

So...here I am!

News; I have completed my Maid of Honor speech. I feel good about it. I was totally stressed up until yesterday. I did write the thing months ago but only revisited it yesterday. I had to chop half of it off and bring some life into the remaining verbiage. It was far too long and dry. All good now though. I read it to my Mom this morning and I was laughing uncontrollably at the same time. She said...'let me read it if you can't contain yourself'. To which my reply was...."by the time I actually read this thing day of, I should be half in the bag! Don't worry Mom!!" LOL

As for my brand new nephews...they will be finally coming home this week. I am so so so ready to hold those little nuggets. I have been waiting patiently...as has the rest of the ENTIRE family. LOL

I have just dealt with a pretty pressing issue that has being weighing heavy on me. I have taken on a new method to dealing with my madness. I didn't actually get to complete my process however...I did get to put closure on the issues at hand. Feels good....no.....feels great! Now...I can carry on through the week with a lighter load on my shoulders. Awesome!!!

And there it is folks! Till tomorrow....hopefully! xo P

Thursday, July 26, 2012

And she's back!

Well well well....what can I say? When it rains....it pours! Holy Bejesus!!!

So...I have just done some MAJOR re-arranging of my time table...out of necessity. I, of course, booked myself up to the tits and being only one person...I simply couldn't manage to get it all done. There aren't enough hours in the day...not enough days in the week to complete my sensational list of must dos.

Now that I have reassembled my to do list....I have found a few minutes to come back to my first love....my blog. Man....how I have missed thee! LOL!!! You could really never know what it means for me to have fallen by the way side with writing my blog. Pains me!!!! Seriously!!!

On a lighter note; business is booming. Yippie!! I am truly and utterly content about this. I have been asking the universe for months for this kind of activity. So with that said;

THANK YOU UNIVERSE/ANGELS/WORLD!!!!!

Seeing as work has been the primary source of my time consumption...hasn't left much room for much else. I have however...managed to continue on with my special project. It is coming along well. So many revelations with this subject. As you know...I am unable to discuss it here....until I have firm pieces in place. Soon folks....soon! I promise!

And now...no new man action! I have been on 2 amazing dates with a gentleman whom I was connected to via a family friend. Looking forward to date #3....whenever that happens. LOL!!! He is a workaholic...much like myself. Perfect!!! As such...I feel like it will be a couple weeks before I get to see him again. All good though. I like the slow pace of this situation. Let's me keep my brain focused on what I am trying to achieve with my time/life. Bless his soul!!! LOL

Any other juicy gossip? Yes!!! My brilliant little nephews are doing so well. They are still in the hospital but only for a few more days. They need to get their weight up before the doctors will let them go...but they are well on their way. I am shitting my pants of excitement for the day when I actually get to hold them. Soon soon soon!!!

Well folks! I am burdened with a headache...and I really need to get back to things! So....till tomorrow...hopefully.....peace love n rock n roll! xo P

Re-don-culis!!!!

Holy shit balls!!! I think that is all I can really say as of late. Don't get me wrong. I couldn't be any happier about it. In fact, I love it! I friggin love my life.

As I am sure we all know...I am an auntie for a second and third time. The last 2 times....all at once. LOL! What a trip! What a feeling! I will say this; I am almost confident that I will not be having children. Why? Well...I am going to adopt my new nephews as my own. LOL!!! Sorry sis....I am in love with them. Of course I am in love with #1...the big bro, head honcho Z man but...I honestly feel a deeper connection with the two little ones....could be because I named one of them. Who knows! Just when I see their perfect faces and perfect smiles...really moves my heart and soul. Meh....whatever! I have equal parts of room for each of them. Big loves all around!!! Speaking of this situation; I really am beyond fascinated by my sister. What a woman!!!! She had one kid naturally and 2 more by c-section out of necessity. I guess I figured that all through our childhood...I was the stronger one both physically and emotionally and thus I suppose I under estimated her capabilities. She is CLEARLY the stronger one both physically and emotionally. She not only blows my mind but she has taken on a whole new presence in my life; the pillar of incredible-ness! LOL

I am still not able to discuss another major component of my life. I know....it sucks! It really really does. I have so much I want to discuss and share BUT...it simply can not be done! Uggggghhhh...painful!

I would also very much like to discuss my personal life; man related....however...I have learnt that this is not the right thing to do especially at such early stages of the situation. Once again...painful!!!

I used to feel a sense of relief writing this thing...doesn't feel like that lately. LOL!!

On a positive note; my business is booming. LOVE IT!!!! I am sending my love the universe and angels daily. I am wicked thankful for all that I have! So full of love these days man....my goodness!

Well folks, gotta boogie. Must keep on keepin on! LOL

So annoyed.....with myself!

Again....another day missed! How annoying? Really....if I could beat myself up....I would! Ha....well...looks like I can recruit someone to help me with that. I get to see my trainer today. First time in 2 weeks. I am sure she will go to town on me....can't wait! I can already feel the pain that I will be in tomorrow and the following days to come...lol. Will I be able to hold my new nephews? I better!

Speaking of my new nephews...tomorrow is the day folks. In 24 hours...I will be with them. I am over the moon excited. CAN'T WAIT!!!!!!!

So last night I met up with someone who has officially become a real life angel to me. He was in my life previously but in a different capacity. As I knew him...that wasn't the right situation. As I know him  now...more than I could ask for. I tell ya....the universe has a funny way of working itself out. This person from last night is one of a few people whom I have had relationships with in the past but haven't been successful in that capacity. Now....they are back in my life....as angels. I am so so so thankful for that. I am in a state of shock and aw. I am flabbergasted at how life happens, at what life gives you and brings you. Granted...I have a helping hand in these matters. I did reach out to this person who I visited with last night. But what I didn't expect was how this person now fits the puzzle that is my life. Kind of mind blowing. Love it!

And so it goes! I have a date tonight. I did not meet this person on any dating sites. This person was referred to me by a family friend. This will be the first date I have ever been on that was set up this way. Ha!! Should be interesting. I did what anyone else would do.... Google him. Although...this family friend did give me the scoop...still needed to find out for myself some things. Turns out he is legit....as legit as one can be from a distance...lol! He is on the usual platforms of social media; Facebook, LinkedIn and.....I did find him on a dating site...although we haven't connected there. I will share the outcome with you tomorrow.

Well folks...gots to get to work! Peace out! xo P

Slightly spastic!

My hands are shaking, my body is vibrating...slightly, I am anxious and sort of excited. Why you ask? I have no idea. Well....that isn't entirely true. I am sure I can nail down the shaking and vibrations to post hangover symptoms. The anxiety and excitement are do to a few events transpiring as of late.

Not sure if you remember a post from last week at which point I discussed that there were 3 events/topics that I couldn't discuss but that they were seriously taking up all of my brain power? Well...I can finally chat about one of them.

My sister is having her babies on Thursday. HOLY SHIT BALLS!!!!!! My 2 nephews are going to join this world in 3 days. I am shitting my pants due to an excitement over load. I have butterflies and I have a ball of nervous knots in my gut. Thankfully, she is having a c-section and as a result....the babies will be in perfect form....as will as my sister's body. I couldn't wrap my head around her tiny little body popping out 2 babies. No friggin way! She will get to spend a little extra time in the hospital which makes me so happy. This way she can recuperate and her babies will be well looked after as they begin their life in this world. Happier than a pig in shit about this. Yippie!!!!

I am in serious need of colouring my gray hair. I have really left it for too long. Of course I am all about strategy and as such...booking my hair appointment for this week was the only move I could make. If you know anything about hair colour...you know that you don't want to be ruining it with pool water/lake water etc. I have been doing much swimming lately and as such....getting my hair done up until now has not been an acceptable idea. Further more, I have back to back events starting next weekend and I want my hair in perfect form for that. So....this week was the only week and thus....I had to put up with my copious amounts of gray hair....until Thursday that is. Yay....Thursday is going to be memorable that's for sure. My baby nephews will get to meet me with fabulous hair! LMAO

I have been spending A LOT of time planning and researching this new business venture that I am working on. I am so passionate about it....that is has started taking over my sleep and dreams. LOL My goodness! I won't get into it. Just know that once I have some pieces in firm place...than I will be sharing. Till then....please just wish me luck and cross your fingers that I can make it happen. I want this more than I have wanted anything in my life. I say that with full conviction and sincerity. It will happen!!!! Yup...it will!

Well folks, happy Monday to all! It is going to be an exceptional week. LOVE IT! xo P

Friday, July 13, 2012

Almost forgot!

Holy bejesus folks...it's 5pm on Friday....the 13th no less. I was about to close up shop and it came to me like a ghost whispering in my ear..."write the blog"!!! Kind of creepy actually.

Anywho...what a day?!! It has been action packed much like the rest of my week and it only continues right up until Sunday evening. EEEEKKK!!!! The highlight of my day...so far...was meeting with my dear dear friend. I don't get to spend nearly enough time with him...but I do believe that is about to change. The universe is amazing. I am in love with it. I think I am in the midst of a seriously pivotal time right now. Big changes are happening....huge! I decided to get some insight and asked some online site to give me a tarot reading. Holy shit balls Batman!!!! Mind blowing how on the money and incredibly insightful it was.

So this evening I have a business event to go to at 7pm. After that I am meeting up with one of my real life angels...my bbbbff. Can't wait to see her. Miss her tons! We'll probably go and conquer Yorkville....as per usual. LOL! Tomorrow.....so tired just thinking about it; wake up early...get some work done. I have a hair appointment just for a blow out at 1:30....in preparation for the night's festivities. After that happens...I am going to have to make a solid effort to stay dry (as in not sweat) and fresh....which means very little work/stress/anxiety can be done or had. I will need to hit up a mall to find a dress for the night. Ugggghhh!!! After that happens....need to go downtown and get some other shit done before connecting with the birthday girl and getting our party on. So friggin excited! Of course the night will include a stop over at our watering hole; the strip club. Of course I am going to spend $20 on 10 songs with my all time fav Russian hottie. Of course that night will be a shit show. Can't friggin wait! Oh....and it just gets better from there. The birthday team is spending the night in a hotel downtown. So...we'll wake up hopefully in time for the continental breakfast that comes with the room followed by a viewing of Magic Mike while eating chocolate covered almonds. A slice of heaven I tell you! Gosh....I  say this with total conviction; you can not do any better than that! LOL

Well folks; I hope that you all have as fabulous a weekend as I am about to have. Peace, love and rock n roll! xo P

Thursday, July 12, 2012

Big sigh...

Doing better today...in terms of anxiety. I was sort of hysterical yesterday...ay ay ay! I can't totally explain it. Today however...not nearly as freaky. My work load is about the same....just sort of zen today.

Last night was fun. I went out to celebrate my dear friend Ace's birthday. We started out at a roof top patio in the hood and then we wanted to head downtown. I had chosen to wear a new outfit which wasn't the best choice because I was sweating profusely. It was a tad thick and very long so I wasn't getting any fresh air...anywhere. After our time at the roof top patio....I dragged him and his 2 sisters back to my place so I could change. Just as an example of how freaky I was yesterday; once I had changed and was ready to go...I left my house. I left my house with my keys inside of it. My front door locks automatically which means that I locked my keys in my house. There is no way to 'break' in...without breaking a window. This is totally not necessary considering my mom lives less than 5 minutes away. So...I called her. Asked her to come and open the door for me. She did! Gotta love mom! Ha!

Off we went to Toronto to meet up with a couple of Ace's friends. Hit up this pretty awesome patio. Had a few drinks and then unfortunately...some drama went down with Ace's sister and a trio of dudes sitting at the next time. The outcome was an early departure from the bar. All good though. I wanted to get home early. Early...ha! Funny! The 4 of us bought some food and went back to Ace's house. Ate the food and watched one of the worst movies of all time...'The Devil's Rejects'. I don't care if Rob Zombie is an amazing artist/musician. He really ought to stay away from making movies. So not his shtick! Sorry! Anyways...I ended up passing out at 1am...got up at 3:30am and made it back to my house which is literally 2 minutes down the street from Ace's house. Thankfully! I took my little nugget out for a tinkle as I always do...and then hit the sack. Overall.....great night!

Of course I am working all day. Tonight I am going to a fashion show that my bff is apart of. Should be fun. Looking forward to that. And then....tomorrow is Friday. Yay!!!

So folks...need to get back to it! Till tomorrow xo P

Headache!

So today I am a little flustered. I have so many things going on...I feel like a chicken with it's head cut off. What a horrible horrible metaphor and vision...but it is about right in terms of how I feel. Oh noodles!!!

I don't even know where to start. First of all...I can't even discuss 3 of the major topics on my mind. One of them because it would be way to premature to talk about it and I don't want to jinx it. The second one...I am simply not allowed to talk about. I have been told to keep my mouth shut so as to not jinx that either. The third issue I am holding back on because I don't want to jinx myself. LOL!!! FACK!!!!

Do you know how freaky this makes me? I have such a hard time bottling things up. Kills me not to share. Clearly this is a learning process for me. Clearly I haven't had enough experience keeping things to myself otherwise I would be a pro. Instead, I am in a frenzy. My heart rate is peaking and I am sitting in a chair. You would think I have been boxing for the past couple hours. Granted I am not sweating profusely...almost there actually. LOL Thankfully my Mom has the AC jacked on my behalf. My brain hurts and the only thing I can think about is having a glass of chilled Pinot Grigio. Although, I had 3 shots last night that have totally affected me and I think that is part of the reason I am with a headache. With that said, as much as I want to settle my brain with a glass of wine, it does seem a bit counter-productive considering my slight hangover. Ugggghhhh!!!!

I was supposed to have a lunch meeting today with a special someone with regards to my business venture. Well...this special someone thinks he is so special that he doesn't need to communicate his bail out of our meeting. Don't you worry folks, he is going to suffer the wrath of Paula. Then, I am wicked anxious to buy tickets to my fav concert in August. I have invited someone that deserves to go as a gift from me. He is taking his sweet time in accepting my offer and I find this marginally annoying. LOL What else....oh...I have wicked heart burn...probably because I am having a bit of a mental meltdown.

Well...my Mom just suggested we go and get some fresh air...and visit Starbucks. Sounds like a great idea!

Peace out folks! xo P

Tuesday, July 10, 2012

Consumed!!!!

I know I know...I suck!!! Man...I really do try my best to fit in blogging time. Uggghhh...I hate it when I skip a day. I wish you knew how much I hate it!

Anyways...I have been totally taken over and consumed by this new business venture. I greatly apologize but I can not discuss any of it at this time. I have so so so much to work on it before I can share even the idea of what I am working on. Just know that I am in love with the project...it feels right, right down to the bottom of my soul. It is a calling and I am going to do everything in my power to make it happen. Yes sir/mam I am!!!

So today is Tuesday. Yesterday was a busy day. My weekend was awesome...as it usually is. Friday night I was in the company of a couple great friends, celebrating the departure of one of them. She works on cruise ships and is away for months at a time. She loves what she does and is awesome at it....so great for her. It is always a treat to spend time with her....although limited. But I always say; quality over quantity. Saturday day...puttered around. Saturday night had a couple business meetings incorporated with some reconnaissance. Had to check out a few scenes for some concepts....you know....lol!!! Sunday was a mix match of work and pool time. I had become the official BBQ'er due to my stepfather's absence. I actually enjoy it...you know? Have a glass of wine, a smoke perhaps while watching the food on the BBQ....not all bad!

So....needless to say this week is insane. I have back to back events daily. They are not all business...thankfully. I do make sure to squeeze in some fun time. Check it out;
Today = Lunch meeting (business), work, dinner with a bff (fun...lol)
Tomorrow = Lunch meeting (business), work, drinks with a bff for his bday
Thursday = could be a super crazy day....we will see but the for sure items are back to back meetings in the evening.
Friday = work all day, meeting in the evening followed by drinks with one of my bffs
Saturday = work all day, followed by my dear dear friend's bday party = shit show...so friggin excited!
Sunday = RECOVERY!!!

OMG....Love my life!

Till tomorrow xo P

Drool much?

All I can say is;

HOLY MOSES!!!!!

I went to see Magic Mike last night with a dear dear friend of mine and my Mom. LOVED IT!!!!! Yes...some would say that it was a bad movie and yes some would say there wasn't a plot line. I have to disagree first of all and secondly....who cares!!!! Channing is positively the sexiest man out there...OMG!!! Body aside, the dude can boogie. That is what is the most appealing for me....his dancing. Just thinking about his dancing gives me goose bumps. I grabbed a pic from one of his solo routines in the movie....check it out!


I think I was actually drooling watching this scene. Yes...he has a killer body. Absolutely he does!!! That isn't all that makes him great. I am a sucker for a great dancer. Now...the other lead actor; Alex Pettyfer...he is one to write home about. I have seen him in a few other roles where he is just as breathtaking. Take a look at what I got to see last night...


The situation with this one...he's a great actor...yup he is! He isn't much for dancing however....just really pretty to look at. Yum yum yum!!!

All in all...I loved the movie! It is a repeat most definitely. In fact, I will own it one day.

Happy Friday to all!!! xo P

Thursday, July 5, 2012

Hi-de-ous!

What can I say today?

All I can think about is my hideous face. I am sporting 2 tones for the past couple days. Today seems to be the worst of it! It really is a sad state of affairs. Check it out for yourself....


I guess I am going to have to be patient with this ugliness. I have to wait till my whole forehead peels....right? Uggggghhh!!! Here's a laugh for you....I am supposed to go on a brunch date tomorrow. Ha!!! I had to give the dude a heads up on this matter. Otherwise I can see him running like the wind!

Yay....it's Thursday!!!! I have an awesome afternoon/evening/night coming up. Starts with a coffee break with my lovely father followed by some work with my girlfriend. After I finish up an appointment with her....we will have some dinner before going to watch Magic Mike and.....my kick ass Mom will be joining us for that. Should be a blast.

Well folks...I need to bust an ass to complete a bunch of things before visiting with my Papa! Till tomorrow xo P

Burn baby burn!

Good day!

I want to start my blog off today with this;

When I was a kid...I used to be in the sun all the time and I never got burnt. I never burned until I went to Argentina for the first time in 11 years....10 years ago. I was with my mom and step dad visiting my mom's extended family at one of the beach towns Pina Mar on the Atlantic. We went for a walk down the beach. It was a super windy day and a super sunny day. I had no idea of the sun's capacity down there, nor did I feel any heat because of the wind. Well....I happened to burn my entire body and peeled head to toe. It was probably one of the most horrific times in my life...painful and hideous. I learned my lesson alright. Whenever I am in Argentina....I wear spf 15 on my body and 30 on my face. That is Argentina. I can't quite explain my silly rationale for how I treat myself under Canadian sun. I guess my thought was this it isn't nearly as powerful as the sun down south. This is still true. However...our sun is still incredibly potent and I did discover just how much so this past weekend. Yes I had a loser moment and I didn't wear any lotion at all on the Saturday and burned the entire front aspect of my body. As I mentioned yesterday; my stomach, legs, my chest, my nose and forehead burned. My stomach, legs and chest are not peeling thankfully. That burn has turned into a pretty awesome dark chocolate tan. Yippie! My nose and forehead however...not such a pretty sight. Lesson learned folks! Even brown people burn....lmao!

I went to see the movie; Rock of Ages last night with my Mom. I LOVED IT!!!! Granted there were a few cheesy moments but for the most part it was entertaining and I enjoyed it. I think I have a secret desire to be in musicals. LOL!! Tom Cruise? Not the best but he did do well. Russell Brand? Pretty decent. Alec Baldwin? Hysterical. Julianne Hough? Impressed! Catherine Zeta-Jones? Amazing! The new Latino dude; Diego Boneto? Awesome! Mary J. Blige? Awesome! Yup....I loved it!

This week is action packed with movies. Saw one last night. Going to go and see The Avengers again tonight. Finally....watching Magic Mike tomorrow. CAN'T WAIT!!!!

I have to go and nurture my burnt forehead and scalp. LOL

Till tomorrow xo P

Love cottage land!

Welcome back folks. I trust that everyone had a sensational weekend....I know I did! First of all...the weather! Brilliant! Couldn't have asked for better weather. Granted I took the sun for granted...meaning I took a little too much sun. I will not complain however....got a major base tan. I think my stomach and forehead got the worst of it. They are still with a hint of red/pink. LOL!

Friday I spent 3 hours getting to a cottage that should have only taken me an hour to get to. LOL! I realize that commuting on a long weekend will do this to any travel time. No matter, I got there with enough time to do some swimming and minor tanning. Saturday was packed with a snow bird show, a sea doo ride and of course tons of swimming and tanning. Man....can we say loser?! I thought my body was invincible to the Canadian sun. I chose not to wear any sun tan lotion while tanning the whole front side of my body. That was a dumb idea. I burned, yes I did! My chest, stomach, legs, forehead and nose all got burned. Thankfully not to a crisp. I guess I have the water to thank for that. At least I learned my lesson for the next day while tanning my backside. I got major sun there too but no burn. That great part is that with such a great tan....no make up needed. Love it!!!

Yesterday was another great day packed with family time and swimming. I made sure to steer clear of the sun however.

And now....for a short but action packed week. Let's do it!!!

Enjoy folks! Till tomorrow xo P

Double whammy!

So...I have no idea what's going on with blogger these days, but I am definitely annoyed to the high heavens with it. Granted it is most likely a user problem...therefore my problem. It is easier to blame the computer however. Wouldn't you agree?

So...I am hungover. Yup! I am! Had a blast last night. But before I discuss anything else...I am going to interject yesterday's blog here;

Titled; Vibrating!
This is what happens when my trainer wants to do a number on me. She happens to be going on vacation for 2 weeks....and she wanted to leave me in a state of immobility. She did succeed! I can barely type let alone hold a phone or walk for that matter. I can see that my time up north is going to be very special. I am going to either be  splayed out on the dock and will need to roll myself off to get into the water...or I will be with some floating devices drinking margaritas in the lake. Either way...sounds great to me! Would you not agree?

So it has been a special day thus far. Lots happening! I just went through a bit of a funny situation. I can't get into it...just have to take my word for it. Sorry!

So, last night I went to see a movie which I thought would be awesome. It was! Just not in the same way that I thought. Meh...it happens! It is called Prometheus. All star cast....great acting. I thoroughly enjoyed it even through my repeated screaming outbursts. LOL!

Well folks...it is a short blog today. Please try to remember that typing is difficult for me with my body in minor convulsions...lmao!

                                                                                            


And back to today...lol....

I was supposed to go out on a first date last night. I was seriously running late to meet this guy. He doesn't drive and so I said I would meet him at the Harbourfront...for the semi convenience of it. On route the traffic was horrific and I decided to bail entirely. The stupid thing was that I didn't have his # and he didn't have mine. Bad start! Anywho...my bff calls me up and tells me to get my ass to the bar where she's at. Without a hint of hesitation...I turned around and met up with her. From the second I got to the bar which was at 7:30pm till 4am it was a gong show. Started the evening at one bar and then moved the party over to the bar I used to work at for some Karaoke. I sang 3 songs. Loved it! I was told however to get some new material...lol! You know who you are...lol!!! I had a fantastic night. Thank you to all that made it great!!!

Now....I have to fold some laundry and then go home....have a shower...wake the f*** up and then off to cottage land I go!!!! Yippie!!!!

P.S. I am in more pain than you can imagine...but like I said...the post-workout pain....is my fav!!!! LOVE IT!

Happy Canada's Day!!!! xo P

Over due.....

It's been a long time in coming...my next tattoo. I have gotten the itch and now...it will be a matter of weeks/months before I get my next one. This usually happens to me about once a year. I get this overwhelming need to get another one and as it happens, I have a list of about 5 or so tats that I have been waiting to get. However, this next one...isn't on my list. This next one....is going to be the biggest one I have yet...if I can help it. What comes with getting an enormous tat is a huge expenditure. I have been waiting to get this kind of a tat my whole life. I really really really want it and I don't think I can wait another year. Although...we will have to see what my finances will allow me. I have some time to collect my thoughts about it and to save some money for it. I don't anticipate getting it before the fall. I love the sun and as such...saturating a fresh tat under the sun....bad idea. Come the fall...no more tanning....ideal time to get it. What do I want to get you ask? I piece that will cover the open space on my back. It will start from the lower portion of right side of my back and move across on a diagonal to the upper portion of the left side of my back. If you know anything about me....you know that maps/water/sailing/anything nautical moves me. This piece is going to be directly related to that. I spent some time yesterday brain storming. I have this vision but am having a hard time finding any images/material that even remotely resemble my idea. All good though. I have time and thankfully....I have an amazing artist that can read my mind...lol!!! Now...if for some reason or another I can not get this monster piece that I am dying to get....I will fill in the void with a couple more modest ones from my list...modest for me that is. LOL!

Today's Wednesday...hump day!!! YAY!!!

I leave in 2 days to the cottage. I can only hope that its a sunny weekend. My body is calling for some sun and needs a tan...badly!!! Oh....I just found out that my bff who lives in B.C. is coming home this weekend. LOVE IT! I will get to see him Sunday night. What a treat?!!! It is going to be an action packed weekend. Perfect!!!

Well folks...that's all I got for today! xo P

Wild ones!

Good day folks. Happy Tuesday to all!

Man...have we been lucky or what? Seriously! This weather is brilliant. I love the freshness of the wind. Can't get enough. Between yesterday and today...these days represent my most favored days of the summer. Not too hot and yet...hot enough to still get a tan. Although...there simply isn't enough time in the day to dick around and sit in the sun...that is until this weekend of course! YAYYYYY!!! I am going up north this weekend. Shitting my pants of excitement. I intend to leave Friday mid day and return Sunday sometime. Why Sunday you ask? Well...that would be because my Mom and I are having a Canada Day party at the house. Yup!!! LOVE IT!!!!

So...this morning I had some pretty crazy dreams. Great dreams. I dreamt that I was swimming again...competitive swimming that is. In my dream, this was the first day in YEARS that I had been back in the water...swimming, swimming like I meant it. I was repeating medleys over and over again as a warm up. I  started with butterfly and the messed up part was that my right arm wasn't moving as I had wanted it to. That was not such a great part...but after a few tries...my arm began to function properly. Weird! I was killing it with free style, no issues there. My breast stroke was undisputed and my back stroke was on par. I hated to have to wake up from this dream. It felt so great and it was a treat to swim again. I didn't feel any pain or discomfort from the injury I sustained back in my competition days. It was like no time had passed. I didn't want to wake up...but of course...I had to! Grrrrrr!!! My dreams are so so vivid that I can actually recall it right now and it is crystal clear in my mind. I tell you...it actually inspires me to get into a pool and hit up for real.

So right at this moment in time...I am looking at a 'Cash For Life' lotto ticket. I won this one from a ticket that I purchased a couple days ago. I picked this one up last night...after having dinner and drinks with one of my bffs. I had the cashier kiss the card and another patron kiss the card....after I kissed the card of course. Do you think I will be lucky with this one? Let's think about this; cash for life....$1,000 per week for the rest of your life. That means you get $4,000 per month which works out to $48,000 a year. What would you do with this money? I tell you what I would do....I would keep living me life as it is....and save every single penny that comes from this winning for about a year and then cash in the savings for a killer travel trip somewhere....like a Safari in Africa or a long ass haul around South America....or wait....a long ass haul around Canada. I dig it!!! I guess I should scratch to see if I won....right? Wish me luck folks!!!

A little bit of this...a little bit of that!

You know what it feels like to not post a blog when I should? It honestly feels like I missed a day of school when I was 15 years old. Like, you absolutely know you should go and have to go but....your rebellious side takes over and for whatever reason...you don't go. You know when you get home you are in a world of trouble...but that doesn't seem so important at the time of decision making. Granted...I am not posting because I am simply busy....but it is the guilt that weighs heavy on me.

So...I have decided to make it a rule of thumb to post in the morning....first thing! Yup!!!

I hope everyone had a fabulous weekend! I did! Friday night I was graced by the presence of a few dear dear friends of mine; 2 bffs and a dear dear friend....all in one room but for only a brief amount of time. All good though. Did some bar surfing and put in some much needed face time with my one bff that was in town from Montreal. Of course there always needs to be a little bit of crazy infused into the evening. I can't decide if this person was hammered and only said what he said due to his intoxication....but....what was said....was said....and what was said was this; he has ALWAYS wanted to be my boyfriend. Ha!!! I have known this guy since he was a little boy. I have been apart of his world for 15 years which puts him at 5 years old since I have known him. He is absolutely delightful and charming but...it just couldn't happen. I said this to him. He didn't care at the time. I am sure in retrospect he may have different feelings. Who knows!!!

Saturday I had back to back appointments and events. Holy Moses!!! The evening's festivities started at my sister's place. She was hosting a birthday party for one of my bro-in-law's bffs. Such a great group of people and a really great time. From there I went to Toronto to connect with a couple of my bffs. I could tell right off the cuff that this night would be a special one and it was. I really don't want to get into the details....just know that as much as I planned for the night to go one way....it went a completely different way. Still fun and action packed....but was a detour from the original plan. It happens!!!

Sunday...bloody Sunday!! LOL I had to work yesterday. It's ok!!! I was supposed to go out on a date last night...but that didn't transpire. So fine with me. I really really needed a quiet night in and I got it! Man....I don't know about you....but having one off night is such a treat. I seriously take it for granted.  I love the amount of activity I have going on; between my work and social life....it's crazy!!! I actually have to book a night off or....cancel plans in order to get some quiet time. I am not complaining....just saying! It is a great thing that I am starting the week off with a great night's sleep....cause this week will have no mercy...lol!!!

Get'er done!

I went to see my Chiropractor today...he says to me; "Paula....what's going on with you?" I ask him "why do you ask?" He says; "I can barely get through the knots in your neck!". My reply: Men!!!!

Ha!!! He laughed! Jokes!

Feeling some pressure these days...work related! All good though...need to feel that. If everything was gravy I would either get bored or get used to the gravy train and thus...start to take things for granted. So...I am embracing the feeling with balls of fire. Bring it on!

Last night I visited with my bff who was in town from Toronto. She was out celebrating Father's Day with her Dad and so I joined them towards the end of their dinner. We had drinks and caught up on lost time. This bff has been my bff since we were 10 years old. Her family is like my second family. In fact, the restaurant that we went to....which I used to work at 7 years ago...is their stomping ground for about 7 years. All the servers there know my bff and her family so well...and in turn me. We have convinced them all that I am the daughter from another mother and sister from another mother. Please note; my bff is of Scottish heritage and is white. For most of you that know me....you know that I am brown...dark brown with black hair. Some people I tell ya....gullible. Who am I to judge however...I am probably the most gullible person you might ever meet. We had fun needless to say....we have kept up this joke for over a year now. We've got it down pat.

This weekend is going to be action packed. In fact, I think it will be the most hectic weekend I have had in months. It all starts on Friday. My bff is in town from Montreal....YAYYYYY!!!! Spending the evening/night with her and our festivities will be accompanied by 2 other fabulous women. I anticipate an awesome time. Saturday...the insanity begins in the morning and will continue all the way to Sunday night. EEEEKKK! Granted I booked it this way...I have no one to blame but myself. I worry about my status on Monday. LOL!

Well folks...Happy Hump Day!!! xo P

Tuesday, June 19, 2012

Times are changing!

Happy Tuesday to all. It is Tuesday right? LOL

My day started with a fabulous morning which included a very slow wake up. I actually diddle dawdled right up until I had to boogie to Toronto to have Father's Day lunch with my Dad, sister and stepmom. We hit it up our usual spot; Dynasty for some dim sum.....mmmmmmmmm yum!!! LOL Love that stuff! After our lunch...I shuffled the family over to a condo sales center where one of my bffs happens to work which happened to be just down the street a block. Of course she was totally surprised...totally my intention. Had a brief chat and the boogied.

From there, trucked it back to the hood at which point I worked with my sister on her baby shower album for almost 2 hours. Between 2 sessions of filtering out a selection from 200 images and hitting up Black's Photography for the online album setup....took up a good portion of my afternoon. All good though...don't spend enough time with her as it is.

I have been doing some thinking as of late...I think I have seriously done some damage to myself due to my full disclosure on my blog. I have gotten some feedback lately that isn't pleasant to hear but then the truth hurts, right? So here is my solution...I am not going to stop writing my blog....hells no! I am simply going to re-think some of the content that I have been posting. Doesn't sound too bad, right? Ha! This will be a serious mental exercise for me folks. I have really gotten so used to sharing just about everything. This will no longer be the case. Don't worry...I can't not put in the juicy stuff...just need to censor it a bit more.

Seeing as I have had a bit of an unproductive work day....I must play some catch up. With that said, gotta boogie! Till tomorrow xo P

Need to....

Yup it's Sunday. I don't usually put myself in front of the computer on Sundays but seeing as I am at my parent's house for Father's day...inevitably I am gravitated to get online. I am in an especially dark mood today...lingering from Friday.

The burning question on my mind; how could I be so wrong AGAIN? Maybe it's not even being wrong that is the most painful but being so easily won over is the killer. As I go through the events...I think any woman in my shoes would have fallen for the scoop as I did.

I just read an article in the McLean's mag this afternoon. It was based on an interview with a Professor at U of T. He has written a book based on the social, political, cultural aspects of being single in today's western civilization. As much as I would like to think that I am for the most part a non-conformist...it is very clear to me that when it comes to the traditionalism of getting married...I fall right in line. Do I want to get married? Yes! Is that because I grew up with this being apart of my up bringing? Perhaps! Is it because I am the ultimate sucker for love stories... albeit Hollywood bulls***t? Partially! I think the point this Professor was trying to make is that being single has stigma to it....if you are single, there is something wrong with you. His reply and one that I am seriously going to consider and wrap my head around was this; being single is not a bad deal. In fact, it is a position that really needs to be embraced. Statistics say that the population of single people seriously exceeds that of couples. I can believe it. I know way too many people who are in difficult times with their partners. But....I thought that was normal.  I guess I know now...that it doesn't have to be this way. Maybe marriage and long term relationships are no longer sustainable in today's culture. I don't know!

What I do know is that I was doing great with my single life. I managed my detached emotional stance with pride and glory. I was with my A game and I never got hurt. I was in control and I loved it. Of course I got a ton of negative feedback from friends and family.....the typical feedback one gets when the stereotype of single hood is one that is shunned. Being called a man eater or a player or promiscuous, all seriously derogatory remarks....suggest that I have no respect for myself. I hate that I have to defend my actions. What about the people who are in relationships that are stuck in an environment of grief, loathing and resentment because they are complacent and stagnant? Don't they have a responsibility to stand up for themselves and take action to better their lives? It really is a hit or miss man. I could tell you about the healthy relationships that I do know of. In the same discussion I could tell you that being single and happy is possible.

Here's my Gemini dilemma; love being single...having the time of my life with it vs. meeting the man of my dreams (Ha!!! I hear that that is a farce of a dream!) and getting married. The former being most practical...is my re-established goal.

As much as I am at an equilibrium between both sides of my soul...realization matched with practicality will preserver.

To quote a very awesome song that I happen to love.....Muse's Uprising

"They will not force us
And they will stop degrading us
And they will not control us
We will be victorious, so come on"

 More power to the singles out there!

In the clouds....

You know what? I have really been holding out on myself. Well...maybe not. I think I have actually been saving myself for the right guy. With my whole heart....I hope that this one is a keeper cause my goodness....he is absolutely amazing!

So we went to see this totally amazing show last night. Let me back track....Mr. Incredible, a.k.a. Mr. Delicious....lol, picks me up from my house. I saw him pull up so I walked out of my apartment and he was walking to the front door. He greets me with a kiss and a great big bear hug, which coming from a man 6'5 approx 220lbs...is quite literally a bear hug. Awesome! With big smiles, we walk to his TRUCK...yup...you read that right folks....big black truck....ugggghhhh...can he get any hotter? LMAO I hop in...and off we go. I was a tad worried that we would be late and stuck in traffic...but clearly the universe wanted everything to be perfect and thus....cleared the way. We made it with great time and got an awesome parking spot....why? Cause I pre-paid that shiznit and got VIP parking. Man....I am good! LOL I will repeat that once again....cause the seats I chose....we were virtually front row just off to the left of centre stage. PERFECT! In fact, it was so perfect....there was no one seated behind us. Had there been....who ever would have sat behind Mr. Incredible wouldn't have been able to see the show.

The show was just over 2 hours with a 30 minute intermission. It was brilliant. Between the gorgeous horses and the acrobatics and the scenery and the setup...it couldn't have been any better. I counted over 35 horses at one given time...which means there were probably more back stage. The stunts that the horse riders did were mind blowing. At one point I thought to myself....that must be a mistake...cause it was super dangerous and just seemed like it shouldn't have been done. Mr. Incredible assured me that it was legit...lol! The show was capped off with an amazing water scene with the horses running through it and it really was just quite a sight. They are such amazing creatures and you can really see the love and amazing relationships between the horses and their trainers/riders. Beautiful...simply beautiful!

From there, we can back to the hood for a snack and a drink. 100% Fabulousness!

Of course the night doesn't end there....but my story ends here!!! LOL I just have to say one thing.....this man has the nicest man butt I have EVER seen!!! LMAO

Good day folks! xo P

Wild!

So...tonight is date night with Mr. Incredible. We are going to go see the horse show; Cavalia Odysseo. So so so excited to see it.

Now...Mr. Incredible and I happen to share one personal connection and that is via a dear friend of my family. On our first date...he happened to drop a name and instantly I said...I know that kid. Had to refer to Facebook to confirm. What a small world. Anyways....that doesn't really mean anything...other than we are mutually surrounded by amazing people.

So...today I did what anyone would do when you are curious about someone; I Googled him!! To my discovery I found some literature that he has published and a video blog. I am bewildered by this man. I mean...we did spend some time discussing his adventures...and of course I am left to my own devices of imagination however....it paled in comparison to the real deal. I checked out the blog and the articles. All I can say is; how cool!!! I couldn't have even grasped the concept of how hardcore an outdoors man he really is. Fascinating I tell you!

LMAO....!!!!

Alright folks...I am late for my manicure!!! Till tomorrow xo P

Butterflies!

Good day folks. Happy Tuesday!

What a day!!! I had to go and see my doctor for my annual health exam. What is it about doctors that make you wait and wait and wait? I had my appointment for 10:15am and of course I was 15 minutes early. I didn't actually see my doctor until 11:15am. Ugggghhh, what is the point of an appointment if there is no respect for timing. Whatever...needed to be done and now it's done!

Last night I had a visit with an old old old friend of mine. What a treat. I have seen him only once this year...which isn't any different from any other year. He was in lock down with a girlfriend and I understand that people can be absent when in a relationship. Fine! I am not going anywhere. When you have time...I will make the time. So...he's no longer in this relationship...sadly! I feel for the guy. He was in love....she wasn't happy. Shit happens!! We had a couple beers....discussed life for a couple hours and it was a pleasure to catch up with him. We've been friends for 13 years. Even if I only see him once or twice a year...it's cool! That is what a solid friendship is all about....right? Right! LOL

So here's a fun story for you....

One of my previous 'man friends'....came out of the woodwork and has asked me to join him on a trip to an island in the Caribbean. Ha!!! Can you believe it? I can't! So crazy! I said just that to him. He says: "I just want to put a smile on your face!" In my mind I am thinking...you had your chance! You snooze you lose buddy. I can't begin to imagine going away on a trip with this guy. I mean...it is really just totally insane. Am I considering  this trip seriously? No! I told him this too. He told me to think about it, the offer is on the table. Ha!!!

On a more important note; super jazzed for my date tomorrow. I am getting excited and I can feel the butterflies in my gut bustling about. I haven't let myself get involved emotionally with a man in SO LONG...I almost don't know how to handle myself in this situation. I have to do a lot of mental exercises to calm myself down and to remember...one day at a time. Sheesh!!! So much easier said than done. Side note; he deleted himself from POF. What does that tell you? Does that tell you anything at all? As much as I try to not succumb to the typical female behavior...over analyzing every detail...I inevitably am still a woman and as such...am inevitably falling into this terrible thought process. FACK!!! LOL WHATEVER!!! Time to focus on work!

Till tomorrow xo P

Next chapter!

What a weekend I tell ya! Aside from having unbelievable weather...there was a ton of action. Granted last week primarily consisted of birthday celebrations it was also action packed with other events...like a date, a party night with my bff, a bachelorette party and last but no least...a baby shower. Holy Moses!!!

My night out with my bff was nothing short of fantastic. It never is! Whenever we go out...it is guaranteed that the night will be brilliant. The two of us together are unstoppable. I will say this; I have never ceased to be amazed that my bff gets crazy action on any given night. Note; she is a lesbian getting heterosexual attention. What is it about this woman that gets straight women to dabble on the other side? OMG! What a sight! Ha!

Enduring an ever so minor hangover the next day, I had a bunch of errands to run for my sister's baby shower the next day. I had to hustle because I needed to be downtown for 5pm to get started with the bachelorette party. Of course...there was no way I could get everything done in time....so I was a little bit late for phase 1 of the party. All good though...made sure to catch up quick. Upon my arrival to the bride's house....was welcomed by a sensational group of women....2 moms, a sister and a select group of dear dear friends. We had some drinks and snacks, were given our scroll of necessary achievements for the night and off we went in limo styles to this awesome restaurant....phase 2. It was a Moroccan resto that had a belly dancing show half way through our dinner....so fun! So want to go back there. After a delectable meal we carried on to our final destination...phase 3 via our chariot..to the strip club we went! Ay ay ay!!!!  It was a very different experience this time around. So many new faces dancing at the club....and....some of the familiar ones....absent....ie. Victor. Sad!! Still had a blast. For once, I kept my drinking on the down low....seriously. I think I had 4 drinks the whole night. Shocking....I know! I guess it was all the drinking from Friday night and knowing that I had to be with my A game the next day. I was in bed by 1:45 fresh as could be.

Slept well and got up bright eyed and bushy tailed. As soon as I was ready for the day....it was non-stop action till 10pm last night. Ran some errands in the morning and then spent a couple hours setting up and preparing for the festivities which were to start at 2pm. Right on cue...the party began at 2 and continued till about 5:30pm. It was 3.5 hours of drinking either alcoholic or non-alcoholic Sex On the Beach cocktails, munching on hors d'oeuvres, chatting away, opening gifts, rubbing my sister's belly and simply enjoying the company of 36 women...family, friends etc. Simply delightful it was! From there...clean-up time. This was my event hosted at my mom's. I couldn't let her deal with the aftermath...so I did my duty and spent the next couple hours cleaning up and washing dishes. All good...I am thankful that my parent's have the ideal house to host parties at. After that...had din din with my sister at her house. Gave my nephew a bath followed by some snuggles with Choochoo and a couple stories. Of course my nephew is never satisfied with stories so he asked me to sing a song...or two....or three. Naturally....I said yes. After 3 songs....he was mellowed out enough for me to leave and join my sister for my first episode of True Blood. Meh....don't get all the hype about it....but whateves. Not all bad! As we're watching the show....my sister says with haste "P....check it out....the babies are moving!". I push Chory of my lap and bust ass to her belly...you could actually see her belly moving. What an experience I tell you. Forget about watching it....you put your hand on her and you can feel them doing whatever it is that they are doing; either using their elbows or hands or feet....pushing her belly and it is just such a special experience. If you have ever sat in a massage chair...it's kind of like that. Fascinating I tell you!

So...finished up the show and went home for a well deserved sleep....BUT....only after I had a chit chat with my new Mr. Incredible. That's his nickname for my blog....Mr. Incredible....cause that's what he is! He blows my mind folks. I know I know...I've said this a few times. I guess I have been lucky to experience a few occasions of man brilliance. Sadly....they haven't lasted the test of time. I really don't want to jinx this....but man oh man....this guy is amazing. With that said, we have our next date this Wednesday. We are going to go and see the horse show in Toronto; Cavalia Odysseo. Super jazzed for that.

Well folks....this has been an extra long blog for you today. Happy Monday to all! xo P
