The COVID Diaries: Connection

Featured6 Comments

A strange phenomenon has occurred during the last ten days or so and I'm not talking about COVID-19 itself. The world is beginning to shut down and this has led to a massive wave of reaching out. I have video chatted, or spoken on the phone with a friend or family member every single day … Continue reading The COVID Diaries: Connection

The COVID Diaries: The Adults Aren’t Alright

April 28, 2022April 28, 2022Leave a comment

“I just give myself permission to suck…I find this hugely liberating.”—author John Green I'd like to formally apologize to everyone I know, or interact with these days. Why? Because I feel like I've been operating at about 50-60% capacity for the past two years, and I know I'm not at my best. In fact, some … Continue reading The COVID Diaries: The Adults Aren’t Alright

The COVID Diaries: So What Now?

March 4, 2022Leave a comment

I miss the feeling of taking off in a plane. That rush of noise filling yours ears and the lurch in your stomach as you leave the ground. The feeling that no matter where you're going, there is something unknown coming your way—the good kind of unknown, not the kind we have right now. I … Continue reading The COVID Diaries: So What Now?

The COVID Diaries: Russian Roulette

Click. My heart thuds in my chest. Click. I start to sweat. Click. My mind twirls around like a tornado. And then I wait for the next click that is surely meant for me. I lie in bed, insomnia gripping me and I can’t help but go down the rabbit hole of news article after … Continue reading The COVID Diaries: Russian Roulette

The COVID Diaries: CATS review

May 20, 2020October 28, 2021Leave a comment

This morning I started writing a blog post about my fears around the B.C. government reopening our province and COVID-19 and getting sick and all that crap that we've been hearing about non-stop and I wrote and wrote and was finally like, "no. I just can't. I'm going to write about the CATS movie instead." … Continue reading The COVID Diaries: CATS review

The COVID Diaries: One Month In

April 21, 2020October 28, 2021Leave a comment

Here I am—one month into quarantine and a global pandemic and social distancing and a whole new reality. Here I am in the raw. My face is pink from three hours in the glorious spring sunshine that my body was not at all prepared for. My eyes look tired from the restless sleeps I’ve had … Continue reading The COVID Diaries: One Month In

The COVID Diaries: Blame it on the Brain

April 8, 2020October 28, 20212 Comments

The other day my family was zooming—and yes, I consider this a verb now, and somehow the topic of Milli Vanilli came up. For those who don't remember them, or weren't alive then, they were a brief one album wonder in the late '80s/early '90s whose fame came crashing down when it was discovered that … Continue reading The COVID Diaries: Blame it on the Brain

The COVID Diaries: Puzzled

March 25, 2020October 28, 20213 Comments

The other night I stayed up way past my bedtime looking for the edge piece of a puzzle. I'd decided to pull down our specially reserved brand spanking new Jan van Haasteren puzzle—the only type of puzzle Zeke will do—because desperate times call for desperate measures. We normally only puzzle in the summer on vacation … Continue reading The COVID Diaries: Puzzled

The COVID Diaries: Discombobulated

March 19, 2020October 28, 20212 Comments

Word of the day: discombobulated. I love this word. It sounds as confusing as it is meant to sound, which sounds confusing. Even just reading the word makes my brain think, "huh?" Today I went for what seems to be my new normal afternoon walk around Vancouver. I'm working from home now, but today was … Continue reading The COVID Diaries: Discombobulated

What's better than a piping hot, decadent hot cocoa on a chilly winter's day? I'll tell you— tons of them! For a few years now, from mid-January to February 14, my husband and stepdaughters and I have made a concerted effort to hit up the Vancouver Hot Chocolate Festival for a delicious and calorie heavy … Continue reading A Delicious Tradition: Vancouver Hot Chocolate Festival 2020
