Stretching: It’s now my full-time job.

I’m kind of glad January is almost over. It’s not that it hasn’t been amazing and fabulous. It’s just been…a lot. A lot of scary. A whole helluva lot of stretching. Stretching past fear, past self-imposed limitations, past my ideas of what is possible or not. On December 24th, in “The Crisis is Over” I [...]

What do karaoke, postcards & France all have in common?

Me, as it turns out. When Natalie Peluso did Fearless Karaoke back in July, I loved it and wished I’d noticed it was happening so I could have participated. (I was in a creative bubble at the time. Not much gets through.) Anyways, I’ve been singing a lot and thinking about singing a lot and [...]

A confession and A Thing To Announce

So first, I have a confession to make. It’s going to sound really un-artist like, and I apologize if I shock your tender sensibilities. Dude, I love business and marketing. I know it’s not very seemly for an artist to passionately declare her love of marketing, but it’s true. I was 16 when it dawned [...]

One year on my own.

I arrived on Prince Edward Island exactly one year ago today. One whole year. I can’t believe it. Can you believe it? Where the heck did the past year go? I feel like it’s been 6 months, at most. Not a whole year. I can’t believe it’s gone so fast. I just re-read my first [...]

Dancing my way back to art

I’m dancing again. Very few people know that when I was younger, I used to dance all the time – I was a classically trained ballet dancer and I loved it. But then I got sick, and I had to let that passion go. I thought that door had closed forever. If someone had told [...]

My new home

After 3 weeks of living here, I’ve finally had the chance to take pictures of the new apartment so I can show you guys. I am so completely in love with this place, possibly more so than ever.                     It’s just so beautiful here, I can’t [...]

Everything will be fine.

Yesterday morning, I was pretty much having a meltdown. I was so tired and couldn’t bear to face another day of work. I knew that if things continued like this, I wouldn’t be doing anything, let alone working in 2 months time. I’d be practically comatose. But I made a choice – that if it [...]

The new apartment!

I am so totally in lurve with my new apartment. I’m pretty sure it’s actually heaven. It’s perfect for me and Jesse and we’ve already turned it into our home in a matter of days. Although admittedly, I’ve gotta sort out the overwhelming mound of clothes in the closet. What can I say? I’m a [...]

Happy Hour Fridays: Hello Summer!

It is finally summer here. Oh my goodness. It’s been a cold, long, miserable spring, and I’ve been seriously displeased. But yesterday, summer burst into full swing and the trees have suddenly bloomed, the flowers are out, and the heat is here. Took it’s sweet time, but whatever. This year, I may even be slightly [...]
