It seems just like yesterday I was sending Alexis off to her very first Brownie Camp, now she has attended her final camp as a Ranger. Time sure flies.

Myles and I were fortunate enough to get front row seats back in March 1991 when NGDB recorded Live TWO Five at at the Red Deer College. Then 25 years after that with pure luck and Alexis knock for buying tickets grabbed front row seats for 50 Years of Dirt. Amazing both times. Love this band.

Be a Unicorn in a field of Horses, I love this quote, Alexis had wanted this Pusheen stuffy for over a year, I had promised to her in April 2016 and didn't find another one until September 2017.

Alexis and I love to hit the markets held every season at Parkland Nurseries. There is always something new to see, and enjoy.

The three of us all live in the moment and celebrate life as it was taken from each of us at one time and given back, a gift to be cherished the way we cherish each other. Hands meeting on a table from across the world.

The very first time that Austin ever treated Santa like a trusted confident and not a stranger to be terrified of. He was adorable talking so earnestly to Santa in a quiet corner at the daycare Christmas party.

While riding a bus to college way back in 1985 I fell in love with the 1985 Corvette in the window of a car dealership. At that point in time it was nothing but an empty dream. In 1997 my dream was fullfilled when I bought the car (not the car, as the one I bought is a California car), but a two tone blue coupe. Now all these years later I am truly blue at having to sell it to pay for medical bills. I will miss it greatly. It will always hold a special place in my heart, and prove that dreams can come true.

While Myles was getting stuck in the snow at work, Alexis and I were facing a heat wave in Toronto that was producing heat warnings.

We have a beautiful park in the center of downtown. Back in 2015 on a nice warm night we grabbed some awesome photos of it all lit up. Connie Prince #2017 December http://store.gingerscraps.net/-2017-December-Bundle-Collection-by-Connie-Prince.html

I have struggled with my hair ever since the cardiac arrests. I lose it in great strands constantly. Not in clumps, not in patches, it always grows back but it seems I'm always losing it. It's everywhere. Gets in everything. I can't wash it without having to clean my fingers several times. Brushing it was strands everywhere. At first I was told it was the death, that the growing cycle is restarted after death, but it just keeps falling out. It could very well be GI issues, or the meds I take. I do know it's worse the longer it is, or maybe it just seems that way since it's more noticeable. I do know that getting my hair cut shorter seems to make it less noticeable.

I have always said that after I was resuscitated following the cardiac arrests and coming out of coma that I felt something was missing. Nothing was real, nothing was the way I thought it should be, I felt lost. I felt I lost myself.  It's something I hear over and over in a variety of heart groups from other survivors, I hear about by reading research papers, and media stories. No one is quite sure what is different but almost everyone says they feel different. Or they lie to themselves to say they are still the same.  I realized tonight while watching a documentary about Voyager 1 travelling through space that I lost my passion.  The definition of passion is:  a strong feeling of enthusiasm or excitement for something or about doing something. Here are these scientists 30 years later still so excited and passionate about the discoveries they made. Still forging ahead and so excited about new areas. They are so passionate about what they are doing. I don't have that, abou
