How to Survive Life in the Suburbs

So My Mother Found My Blog

in Everyday on 09/27/11

As many of you know this little blog of mine was done anonymously for over a year, closer to two!  Only recently did I come out of the bloggy closet, quietly posting a real picture of myself, slowly letting small details of my real life and my real first name leak on to the cyber pages.  Letting my blog morph,… View Post

Vasanti – Fixing My Ugly Day

in Uncategorized on 09/26/11

Have you ever had one of those days where from the moment you get up you just know it’s going to be an ugly day?  The kids don’t co-operate, the oatmeal burns, and that glimpse you just caught of yourself in the mirror. Shiver. I was having one of those days, one of those super I look deeessgusting days, and… View Post

It’s 10pm at night and I am happy to report I am not one of those Mom’s who is frantically trying to figure out what on earth I am going to put in my daughters lunch boxes tomorrow.

JANES FlatJacks Saved My Day and a Give Away!

in Lifestyle on 09/23/11

Home from school. “Quick girls, you have exactly 8 and a half minutes to use the washroom, change into your gymnastics/dance leos, brush out your hair and meet me back at the front door. Go Go GO.” Sadly this is not a joke, this is my every Tuesday. Ahh life in the Suburbs. Trying to give my kids the best… View Post

Do You Remember When?

in Uncategorized on 09/21/11

My aching heart. This video by GymChicksRock on youtube struck a deep chord with me. I am the mother of a competitive gymnast. She trains twelve hours a week, and spends three hours a week commuting in the car. She lives, breathes, loves gymnastics. I am a proud Mama…but am trying to protect her heart. The heart of the girl… View Post

Maybe Now I’ve Seen Everything?

in Everyday on 09/19/11

-A young girl with seven piercings in each ear, two in her nose, one in her lip and one in her bulging child like abdomen.  -A toddler, “double fisting it”.  Chocolate milk in one bottle, blue Kool-aid in the other?  Sigh. -A man in a wheelchair.  Three emerald green parrots on his shoulder, poop running freely down his back, and… View Post

Warm and Fuzzy Wordless Wednesday

in Family on 09/14/11

My free spirited, relaxed, easy going, always smiling, hugging, dancing, singing, giving, caring, beautiful baby girl is turning 10 this week.  My SweetGirl.  Sigh.  We celebrated in style.  Luau style on the beach.  Heads turned, strangers took pictures, little girls laughed the way only little girls can. The sun shone down on us. I am so blessed. Happy Birthday to… View Post

My List of Yuck

in Uncategorized on 09/12/11

It’s Monday morning and I feel ranty.  Instead of being all blue, I will just list, in no particular order, a variety of things that make me go Yuck… ~Baby toads held in front of my nose by 8 year old girls. ~Spiders so big they can only be killed with a hammer.  ~The slime in the bottom of the… View Post

Some places are beautiful.
Some places make you feel a little something.
And then there’s @loviamykonos. 🤍

Looking for a hotel in Mykonos? This one has stunning views, the warmest staff, dreamy boutique-style surrounding and an unmatched location.

There were so many moments sitting on our terrace, looking out over the Aegean, we’d look at each other and say, “Can you believe we’re here! That this is real!” 💕
Lovia, you were pure magic. ✨
We left a little piece of our hearts there. 🇬🇷🤍

Throw back and a little travel inspo….

Hubby and I will never forget the ferry ride in Lake Como that took us to this HomeExchange in postcard perfect Italy. 
How did we manage to spend almost 2 weeks at this dreamy location without maxing out our credit card? @homeexchangecom 

I promise - once you try #HomeExchange you will never look at travel the same way again! Follow the link in my bio for all the deets. ❤️

Squee! It’s that time again — planning another #HomeExchange getaway!
Leaving the house behind and headed to Ontario cottage country. 🌲☀️
The hubby and I are planning a 7 night lakeside escape just a few hours from home, and honestly, this is where the girl math really starts mathing. After an expensive year, I’m extra grateful for our HomeExchange membership — and I love browsing all the gorgeous lakefront homes nearby!

Do you have a favourite town or lake in cottage country? Tell me!!

One annual membership fee + listing our home = unlimited swaps all year long. Affordable luxury travel for the win.
