This is not a complaint.

Julie and Julia, and Chico

It has been over a month since I last wrote, which does not bode well for a blog with the word DAILY in it. In truth, I have been struggling with direction lately.

6 Stitches, Blow Up Doll, An Island Oasis and other distractions

It's about ten in the morning and I'm on the Queen of Nanaimo ferry waiting to depart to Galiano Island. We are sitting next to the Kids Zone area where my son, decked out in his Christian Ronaldo soccer outfit from Grandma, is spelling the Kids Zone sign out loud while the other children are watching Wonderpets on the tube. It is a sparkling sunny day, clear skies and warming up very fast. A weekend getaway to an island oasis right now is simply, perfect timing.
