Dear September…

My heart is open

Full of emotions

A little anxious and worried

Online learning

Everything is different

All around us

Nothing is the same anymore

Masks and distancing

Fear and Government

2020 is a real mess

I’m wondering who and why

Have we forgotten where this started and why?

Who’s to blame for the downfall of humanity?

Many lives lost

Many loose their jobs and homes

Is this all about control, money and power?

God I hate politics and the men that run this shit show.

Nothing will be the same anymore

Or maybe it will be okay?

This is affecting people in more than one way

Mental Health is a huge issue as well.

I truly pray and hope that things will be okay.
I’m trying to stay hopeful and positive…trying.

“I am a detective, I am a decipherer, and I am a finder of lost souls. My life is my own. And the future is up to us.” – Enola Holmes


The character Enola Holmes believes that our future is up to us. I don’t know why but this brings tears to my eyes. Is our future up to us? I hope we can be free again to travel, to go to places, to hug one another. I hope that we can one day get together again without having fear.


Travelled to Stratford Ontario

A busy little place full of commotion and life.

Social distancing in effect. Every shop had hand sanitizer and everyone wore masks.

I took these pictures of less crowded areas but the place was busy as can be.

Great book stores and the river is beautiful. It wasn’t quiet that’s for sure.


I kindly received beautiful *Gifted items in September.

Thank you to PIXI Beauty and AVON.CA

New Sateen Dreams Glimmershadows. They are so pretty and easy to use. FMG Glimmershadow Liquid eyeshadow Buildable Silky Cream Formula glides on effortlessly for a soft, subtle sheen that lasts all day. Water-resistant Crease/smudge-proof, Paraben/Phtalate sulphate free. 2ml $14.00 Avon.ca

Pixi Beauty eyeshadow palettes and blush quads are so stunning! The quads have two blushes, a bronzer and highlight. I love to mix them up and use a bit for eyeshadow sometime and even add the bronzer in the blush for a darker tone. No rules here. Freedom to mix and do what you like. I love these colours for Autumn. So beautiful!

Dear February…

Where did you go?

Fast and very cold

Snow

I kept busy with the kids, lunches, laundry, cooking, cleaning and doctors appointments.

Even though February was cold and long

I kept busy and

I did a lot of art and uploaded to my Etsy Shop.

I also received beautiful loving gifts from my husband. Flowers and Chocolates. He is very romantic. ❤️


Grateful for my health results

A lot of PA Days

The month ended with more doctor appointments.

I feel that February was testy and a little tedious to me.

I was a little irritated with social media. I focused on things that I enjoy and that make me happy. I’m so grateful for everything that I went through in February and I’m also glad the month is over.

I’m happy March is here and I look forward to Spring. How about you? How was your month? I hope you are all well and happy.

Thank you for reading my post.

Much love and happiness to you all.

Thank you.
