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

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

xo P

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

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

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

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

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
