Wow

Could not resist sharing my killer Horoscope for today...

Leo (July 23 — Aug. 22)

When we worry about getting things all wrong, it is often a case of underestimating our power and potential. Try not to be insecure. Given the excellent overall cosmic climate you face, it would be hard not to succeed.

Promise to update you on my amazing trip to CR soon!

Well, hello there November!?

Ok again I am slow on the welcoming of a new month. what are my excuses!!?? Well, its been a busy few weeks in more ways then one. October ended with a bang! The last 2 weeks of October caught me by surprise. There were Birthday parties filled with unexpected guests, there were wrap up parties filled with too many glasses of wine and too much fun, there were goodbyes, there was a stagerring stagette, there were new friends catching up and old ones getting reacquainted, there was fun, there were costume parties...all in all October ended quickly and promptly just as it has began. And now we are 10 days into November. Honestly where does the time go? I already love this month for so many reasons. I love it because my heart has smiled more then a handful of times--this year has not been easy on many and I have had the honor of watching and feel things turn around for so many of those around me. There has already been two engagements and one pregnancy. I am looking forward to so many more wonderfulness aswell. In two days time I will be boarding a plane bound for Costa Rica for an old and amazing friends wedding..I can hardly contain my excitement! There are things that must be celebrated and moments to be cherished. I am almost certain November will leave as fast as it arrived!

The City Moves Me


Life can be hectic at the best of times especially in the city. There is always something to do, somewhere to be, someone to meet up with, life is always moving and always happening. The city is the most marvelous place because though you are surrounded by a million people you are just another somebody making their way here or there. On Friday afternoons I enjoy taking the city all in. Instead of rushing home on public transport, I throw on the ole ipod, toss my bag over my shoulder and heel toe it the 4 clicks home. I don't do it to prove anything to anyone I do it to allow the stress and annoyances slide off my shoulders, slowly but surely these stresses are left in my dust, along my way across Queen and up Bay.
Last week while making my way through Nathan Phillips square, I felt moved. I felt chills down my spine, I felt love pulse through my veins and I felt pure unadulterated energy in my heart. Maybe it was a match of perfection--the perfect song at the perfect moment while taking the perfect step, I don't know but at that particular moment, I looked up to the sky and the city of Toronto actually moved me. One tear slipped down my cheek, while a smile gleamed from my lips. At that particular moment in Toronto I was indeed the happiest girl in the entire world-Thanks T.O.!
