Mixed feelings

As most of you know, we are leaving for Kentucky today! I am so excited to go and see everything. I love traveling to new  places and seeing new sites. Mom's got quite the itinerary planned.

However, traveling with Puppy doesn't go so well. He hates the car, hotels are a pain, it'll be hot (42 degrees C.)  I dropped him off at the sitters last night. They've looked after him before so it was encouraging to see him run to where they keep his water dish; unfortunately it wasn't down yet! Leaving him was easier than I thought it would be.

I missed him most in bed last night. My legs are used to having him against them so were rather jumpy last night. I didn't get much sleep. Oh well I can rest in the car, I probably won't sleep but you never know.

Time is ticking. It's almost time to go on another adventure. I will miss my baby boy, I feel like I'm missing my right arm or something without him. But I will have a good time and he'll have a good time and he'll jump all over me when I get back.

The best part is that we are going to blog while we are there!! Blogging is a lot of fun. See you in Kentucky on our Kentucky blog!!!!!!  Kentucky Blog 2016

Good bye, my friend

Left to right: Andy, Monica, Roger Roger, I will never forget the first ski night. You and Andy were such a great team. You were the first men who shared skiing with me. Thank you, my friend for giving me the experience of freedom first.  Flying down that hill at top speed (well maybe a little slower!!) with you and Andy, it felt like I didn't have a disability. You saw me for who I was. You never focused on the negative. You were always positive. Some of my favourite memories are when the three of us were on the chair lift together and you would tease Andy and I about this or that...and yes I know we teased back! You took it so well!!! Did you ever get an air-conditioned bathing suit to go with your heated coat?!! Roger you didn't just stay a skiing friend.  You came to my show with Propeller Dance the year we were at the Shenkman Arts Center in Orleans. It meant so much to me that you thought I was worth the ticket price and the long drive to Orleans. I remember the

A blurry photo

Have you ever really looked at a blurry photo? If you're anything like me, looking at a blurry photo makes you want to quickly look away. Or better yet get rid of it!! I was going through my store of photos on my phone the other day. and came across one of my cat, similar to the one above, that was out of focus (not quite as much as the one above though!) You could tell what it was, but some of the details were missing. It all of a sudden hit me that this is how we see God. When we first accept Him, our vision of Him is blurry. We can tell Who He is, but the details are missing. We accept the truth of His existence, love, power, kindness and holiness; but we see each one of these things dimly at first. Sometimes when we're looking at God and the things He is doing we see so out of focus that we just want to give up and turn away like when we are looking at a blurry photo. As Christians, we are told to seek the Lord with all our hearts and search for Him as we wo

Why "Choreographer's Cuisine?"

Why dance?  Dance is everywhere in Scripture. In Psalms 150 it tells us to "...Praise Him with harp and lyre. Praise Him with timbrel and dancing..." For me dance has always been a very important part of life. I believe dance was engrained into my very being by my grandfather, who, I'm told danced me for hours around the living room when I was a baby trying to get me to sleep. (I'm told I was a hard baby to get to sleep!) As I have gotten older dance has inspired me and has become a way of expression when I can't find the words. I have also tried other art forms, but dance and poetry are my two favourites. As I am learning the art of choreography this year from my bosses, I am recognizing that my life has been choreographed by the Great Choreographer, Jesus Christ. Every person who has come into my life, every situation I have found myself in, even my trauma, was choreographed into my life. And He's not done choreographing yet!! I've been told  by a
