  •  Yesterday, I was trying to think about pivotal images from my childhood.  If there was only one image I could choose from, what would be the most powerful, influential, visual I remember from my childhood?

    After thinking about it I believe it was Cyndi Lauper's She's So Unusual. It was my very first cassette tape. I was 5 years old at the time and to me she was the real life rainbow brite! Her album cover was more than a photo to me, it was a glimpse into a way of life I had never seen before. The street, her dress, her hair and even her pose. I think I understood the value of fashion at an early age and how magical it is to be able to change your outward appearance any way you wanted to. This seemed really powerful to me, to be whoever I wanted to be. Shortly after that I begged my Mom to get me this puffy dress with phone numbers all over it. At the time "who I wanted to be" was infact Cyndi Lauper-lol

  • Pics of Credit Valley Conservation/Lake

    Exactly 2 whole minutes from my house. My other favorite lake is 10 minutes away. I guess I need a boat-lol

    Fall greeting me for the first time.

    In the fall all of the trees reflect their colors on the water. It makes for a dramatic and picturesque backdrop.

    Look at my furbaby's face! Man do I ♥ her.

    Mike likes this one best because of the" nature friendly" wood planks. He doesn't like to get dirty-lol Of course he doesn't like to hike either.

    Lilypads!

    She's actually a very good swimmer. I taught her in a swimming pool which is much harder. She has always loved water though.

    Look at how far she can swim! She could probably cross the lake if she wanted to.

  • Belfountain Inn.. I thought I was in some French Film. Gossip girl..

    I know I've been an awful friend! I just have nothing to say recently. I mean do you really need to hear how I cleaned out my closet for the 50th time or that I went shopping the other day?-lol How about what I cooked for dinner? I actually miss Xanga.. Some of my friends have stopped writing here as well!

    Yesterday we enjoyed some nature at the Belfountain Inn. It's one of my favorite places because they have very fine food yet have beautiful grounds to walk on. I need to take my dog on some more trails, They have the most incredible conservation trails where I live. I tried to take Mike yesterday but he is so not an outdoors person! He gets bored and he just wants to make out in the woods.. After 8 years together you'd think we'd be able to just go on a hike together without him wanting to make out! I have never in my life had an outdoorsy type friend EVER. Maybe dated a few jocks who were but it never lasted.. I think it's because half of me is into style, music blah blah but I have never been camping in my life! NEVER. I want to go and my man hates camping he only likes 5 star hotels. I took this test and it said I understood what men want by 100%. I don't think I understand men at all. Not even a little bit.

    I'm wearing braces just in case you see things on my teeth. They are coming off in a few weeks I didn't' have to wear them that long at all. I wanted to make sure my teeth were perfect before I have kids and really grow up-lol The problem is that I don't even know if they were that bad to begin with or worth wearing braces as an adult but glad I tried at least though to have perfect teeth and there is a difference even though I felt like a freakazoid all of these months.

    Mike enjoying his ice cream. <3

    While closing the sliding glass door I spotted a hot air balloon floating across my yard. It looked like it was going to land between the apple trees and the rhubarb! If it did I was prepared to pretend I was in some foreign French film. Alas, it floated on.

    Gossip Girl Season 2 was so good. The final scene was my fav! They show the full scene through youtube but they disable the code. So go to youtube if you want to see the full scene. I just love that Chuck Bass and so do my sisters. I think Holly does too. I know Marilyn does! Ed Westwick, that's the actors name is a major slob in real life. Check out the difference.

    K-Swiss: real life:

    Time to catch up with all of my subs!
