Work posts, fun posts, personal posts…
It's been a while! Thanks for still being here. We are now April, so you are probably all assuming that I am settling into my new home with a big smile on my face! Well... you are mistaken! However, I can still be found with a smile on my face. Some days, it's just for... Continue Reading →
Don't we all hate waiting in line or being on hold... those minutes passing by while you are trying to get something done or get in contact with someone always feel like moments of life just wasted away... even though you know that once you get to the front of the line or that person...

"It won't be easy, but it will be worth it". That's what I kept saying to myself once demolition started on my new home. I knew that renovation was synonymous with demolition, but I don't think I truly visualised how it would all happen. The project started slow... my friend Karelle did the architectural drawings of...

I've always had an interest in Do-it-Yourself projects. Part of me loves seeing my efforts lead to something concrete. I helped renovate a house with Habitat for Humanity a couple of years ago.

Sometimes you have to chose the smart decision over the emotional one. As I sat at the doctor's office two months after my failed in-vitro, I knew I had a difficult decision ahead. I had already set the minimum number of follicles for another try at in-vitro to seven, but I only had 6 (more... Continue Reading →
These two past months have seen a lot of ups and downs, including posting my first of these blogs. I will admit that I was at a very low point, after four failed insemination procedures and one failed in-vitro, and I wasn't sure that I could carry on with this adventure. I don't know how...
