Kingston would be for the full weekend... and I have gone twice in the past. It was awesome!

I checked the map and you're right - Kingston's much too far for an easy there-and-back. I'm glad you got to participate at Eden Mills, though.

In response to "Stuff About Me "

Miserably Stuck ...

I hate asking for help.

I used to belong to writer's groups here and have fond memories of readings elsewhere; but that was so long ago.

I love going to writer's events too! I enjoy the feeling of inclusion with other people who share my love of writing.

In response to "I Can to It.... yeah, right. "

I don't know if you remember me blogging about this, but Vic's dad had Alzheimer's, and it was 7 years of him just being an empty shell. Vic's mother is in the mid stages where she's violent and combative, Vic ended up placing her in a home because she was hurting the caretakers who were staying in her home with her. I worry about Vic because he is forgetful more and more, his grandparents and his parents all had some form of dementia.

Awesome job, Carly and today's for picking me for your review. I have no idea whether I can complete this today at all because I'm working and my lunch time is at 12pm which is 12am WDC time. I need DST!

Your review is awesome btw.

Being Nice To Myself

30 Day Blogging Challenge

PROMPT July 9th
Write about the last time you did something nice for yourself.

I try to do something nice for myself on a regular basis - mostly something small, like walking to Uptown Waterloo to go to a coffee shop and watch people while sitting outside at their patio. This may seem pretty basic, but with the pandemic of Covid-19 still circulating, I think it is important to find little moments to be nice to yourself... and others.
