Celebrated my birthday:
My ersatz son-in-law purchased this lovely cake seen here in the morning light but couldn't attend my little birthday event as he was working a side job after hours last week.

TwinB 'n me attended the annual Poetry Slam on Thursday where she opened the show being the first person to read for the Open Mic portion of a very intense and jam packed evening. She got a rather good response from a completely cold crowd (not warmed up) and I suspect folks would be surprised to discover that this was her inaugeral public reading. Ever.
I's a proud Mama.
*no chance to record my baby since she suddenly went on first and all I could do is enjoy. She asked them only minutes before so they were very gracious to give her any spot at all.
The following morning mah boy and I travelled to Grande Prairie to put in an appearance at my Uncle and Aunts' 60 anniversary. For some reason I figured on about 6 hours of travel...wrong!! Between construction, getting lost and it being 800 kilometers in total we were on the road for 11 painful hours. This is from the trip back a mere 38 hours later. Travelled through a massive thunderstorm; this would be the end and look what's at the end of the rainbow!!
Stampede is coming up so the Ctrain stations are alive with the sound of buskers. Threw a loonie in guitar case then decided I liked his sound so told him I was sticking around for a whole song. He did an amazing job of singing about divesting himself of various household goods in order to move to Victoria. Haunting even. We then chatted for quite a while: so, please meet Tyler Cameron, singer/songwriter heading to UVic to take sports psychology.
I however am hoping that his musical career takes off.
Look him up online at cbc radio 3
