Nuit Blanche

An evening and night of art.
With niece Susie, we go to see Gaia, at the Distillery – an incredible show.
Then unable to cross the city in the car, we park it and start our Nuit Blanche walk.
A stop for food and drink at a new Izakaya on Dundas,
it is a delight to have Pa Hayes come join us for a beer.

Grateful today for
Nuit Blanche – a great event that brings people out into the streets,
the great weather we had today,
and for sharing it with family members.

Friday Night Fun

Lunch in the afternoon with the nephews – so great to see them,
The evening is with ladies of Envision – starting with a personal care product party,
and then to an impromptu party at Wellington, where the boys join us.

Grateful today for
the great ladies – thank you for cleaning up the fragments of the blown up mason jar!
fun times with Envision,
and for a fun Friday night.

Unable to retrieve data…

Catching up on my blog entries,
I am looking at my notes for this day – and there are none.
Hmmm…looked at photos yesterday and tomorrow – none taken today..
Looked at my emails, and calendar to see if that might trigger a memory of the day…
nope.

Grateful today for
the data that I can look through,
the tech that makes it a speedy search,
and for finding a photo that feels perfect for today.

Bri’s B-day eve

What a day!
Breakfast at the market and a restocking of our produce,
an early evening envisioneer gathering,
followed by a spontaneous + unexpected meeting downtown.

What a night!
The city is buzzing with the energy of the weekend,
and the launch of TIFF…

From bar to bar in the youthful crowds…

Grateful today for
a full day,
new experiences,
and staying up til the wee hours of the morning…

Rain!

The wild rains today are so welcome…
a friend wrote me today saying that she could hear the grass singing…ahhhh.

More cooking today and preparing food for upcoming meals.
In the late afternoon, a lovely walk in the rain to my appointment in Kensington market.
It is a good appointment and feels good to be making forward motion.

Grateful today for
making use of our fantastic kitchen,
progress and forward motion,
and for the beautiful rain.
