Have Fun and Play Nice

Taking some time for myself until the long weekend is over. Need to clear my head so I can get back into writing. Hope you're all enjoying this awesome weather. Be Safe! 

RIP Tim Bosma

This week has been one of the most emotionally intense times in my life. I never knew Tim Bosma or his family, yet he has touched my life profoundly. I witnessed a community of virtual strangers rally together with one purpose and one purpose only..... to bring Tim back to his family. This community now grieves the loss and feels the pain his family must endure. They have a long and pain-filled journey ahead of them. 

I can only pray every single animal who took part in this horrific crime be brought to justice. To think, a simple ad on Kijiji was the beginning of the end to this poor man's life. If nothing else, his death will change the way we interact on these venues forevermore. 

It is with a heavy heart I offer my condolences to Tim Bosma's wife & daughter... to his family... to all those whose lives he touched over the past week. 

May his wife take comfort in the many wonderful memories shared with Tim. A part of him will always be alive in your daughter, as well as in your hearts. God Bless.... 

My Mothers Day Gift to YOU!

My Mother's Day gift to You. 

ONLY on  Mother's Day, Sunday May, 12th 

I am giving away a free copy of Dani (Women of Strength Series) 

Blurb:

The paper mill where Dani has worked for the past twelve years is closing. A single mother of a sixteen-year old, she quickly learns her tattoos aren’t helping her land a decent job. Should she stand up for her choice to have full sleeve tattoos, and settle for a job at Teasers, the local stripper bar? Maybe she should hide her beautiful artwork and try for a steady job in one of the design houses in the city?
Will she listen to Ryan and accept his help, knowing he wants to take their special friendship to another level. Is she willing to take the risk of losing him and cross that proverbial line?

Take a look at all of the stories in the ongoing Women of Strength Series. A new addition is published approx. every two months.

Missing - Tim Bosma

I was born in Brantford and now live in West Hamilton, only 5 minutes from Ancaster. This missing person has affected me deeply. My heart aches for his wife and 2 year old daughter. I feel helpless, so I ask you, Dear Readers to help spread the word. Please help. 

I pray for the safe return of Tim to his family and friends. 

Aprils showers....bring May flowers!

Thirteen Beautiful May Flowers

Just imagine. He'll stride into the room. Light will glow from him. I'll hear music. He'll bring me flowers.”

“Flowers are the music of the ground—from earth’s lips spoken without sound.” 

 

 “I would rather have two or three lilies of the valley gathered for me by a person I like, than the most expensive bouquet that could be bought.”

“May flowers always line your path and sunshine light your day. May songbirds serenade you every step along the way. May a rainbow run beside you in a sky that's always blue. And may happiness fill your heart each day your whole life through.” 

“A flower cannot blossom without sunshine, and man cannot live without love.”

 “Don't wait for someone to bring you flowers, plant your own garden and decorate your own soul.” 

***Be sure to come back on Mother's Day this Sunday May 12th

Here Comes the Sun

HERE COMES THE SUN!

The weather is amazing! The sun is shining bright....unfortunately it also highlights every nook and cranny in your home. Now, before you can enjoy the day outside, you have to take care of business inside. There's nothing worse than coming home to a messy house. I've tackled my daughter's bedroom (took me two days) and now I'm working on the kitchen from top to bottom. If I'm lucky I'll be able to enjoy the weather by Mid June lol 
This is also a time of year when blog posts happen less frequently.  I promise to try and be a good blogger and keep you informed as much as possible. 
I've included the video Here Comes the Sun. Enjoy the day! 

Please, watch out for motorcycles. Look twice... Save a life....

Shouting Out about an AMAZING find.

You have to check out this blogpost I was directed to by a friend. It is probably one of the best and most amazing reads I've had in a very long time.

My favorite quote....

You're allowed to fall in love with yourself. I promise. This will be the scariest thing you will ever do, and that's okay. It will also be the most amazing (albeit super gradual) experience you will ever have. It doesn't make you narcissistic. It doesn't make you vain. It is liberating in every form of the word.

Here's the LINK. I promise you will finish reading this post feeling better about yourself.
