I thought I'd be back earlier to finish telling how it is for me doing my wash at the laundromat but sometimes life gets busy and well, honestly, sometimes I just get too lazy and then it also seemed so non-important. This time it was a mixture of all three. I've spent a good part of the last month recording a sci-fi audio book. I've done it before but have never found it to be as arduous as

Since the 5th of January, I've been doing my clothes at the Laundromat. Janne came here for the Christmas holidays and on the evening that he was leaving, he asks if we could do a small load of wash so that he won't have to bring home any dirty clothes and believe me when you do the trip from here to Montreal, cross the ocean and 2 more airports before arriving in your country and then after

I caught some bug and was sick for several days, but now I'm back and good as new. I won't bother you with the details as it makes me think of old people at Tim Hortons, having coffee in the morning and each one-upping the other with how sick they've been, their spouse has been, what aches and pains they have, what their cholesterol levels are and slowly and methodically going through

Wow, I haven't blogged in almost a year.I've been thinking about it though. So much has happened in the last year for me photography wise and also I think I want to write down some thoughts that come to me just during my daily life that I'm just too darn lazy to write down in a proper journal.Last year at this time, I was breaking my back trying to sell online and although I had a bit of success,

okay, well, although I did play around with the hands this morning, this evening, I took about an hour or so and played around with the flowers mostly. Made them more defined and added some light and shadows. I filled in her wings, but they are not done yet.. and still really unsure what I'm going to do with the hair.. :-PRemember if you want to see it larger, you have to click on the image above

well, I have changed my fairy scene... she is no longer holding a flower, she is now playing a flute. I then got really lazy because doing the fore-shortening of the hand behind was driving me a little nuts . Anyways, this morning, I worked on the hand behind and I think it is pretty much the shape I want. I may have to make the fingers slightly longer, so I've not completed the coloring of the

Well, I did a tiny bit of work on my fairy today. You might even call her a pixie, I guess, right?Well, I did more of her skin and drew her hands so they were the proper shape. I set her on a branch with blossoms, like cherry blossoms, something that feels like spring time. I also made her lips a pinker shade, I think she needed to look fresher for spring, but I still like the big pouty lips. I

I haven't blogged in ages. I'm either tired, busy, stressed etc., but today reading MeanMrMustard's Musings I've been inspired by Larry to write some little tidbits that I thought about blogging and just never did.To start off with, my divorce is not final. simply because my hubby wants to re-negotiate the terms of our divorce including wanting my camera since he says it's his cause he bought it.

When Buffy - the Vampire Slayer played on t.v., I missed it. Never saw one episode.At the end of last year, a friend coaxed me into watching the series. At first, I was hesitant...we started watching, I was not that impressed. The shows obviously lacked money to create anything that looked scarey or thrilling, but I was told, you have to give the show a chance, things get better in season 2...

After my dad died, I decided I would take all his photographs and make copies so that all the kids and grandkids could have them.

Chiana is adorable but a handful. I asked for some suggestions and did get a small water bottle to spray her when she started biting things.. especially computer cables and cords. I think cats have no concept of what punishment is, well, this cat anyways. Here is how she reacts. She gets sprayed, so then she goes under the couch.. and goes into hunting mode... looks to see if you are watching

Here is our newest family member. We've had her since the last 2 weeks.We have called Chiana. She is named for the lovely, very feline, very grey, very feisty girl in Farscape . As you can see the only other color than grey that you can see is the interior of her mouth which is pink. This is just like our cat. I've never owned a cat before and it's quite an experience.

This week, in my town, there is a bike tour called "La Tour d'Abitibi" 2006. It is a tour for juniors, but it is important in the fact that it is the only tour in North America where the points count towards ranking you for the Tour de France. Luckily for me, the race against the clock brings the bikers right in front of my house. The best place for pictures, though, is at the top of the street.

Many of you may not realize this, but when American Idol ends in the U.S., Canadian Idol starts here and carries us through summer.

The day before yesterday, I decided to go to the duck pond and take pictures. The day was looking good, it was about 16C out... not hot, not cold, but nice for biking. I usually take a certain route that passes partially through town and the rest beside a railroad track. I decided to hit the railroad tracks at an earlier point. Bad decision.

It doesn't stop it from being practical, but can be a sweet surprise.What's this all about? Barcodes! Yes, pain ol' boring barcodes. Well, boring no more if this design firm has it's druthers.

There is a fun photo technique that is all the rage on the net right now. It's taking photographs and making them look like fake models by making them look like close-up macro shots. Furthering the look is playing with the curves to make them bright and plastic looking. Now, does this have any really important applications? No... Is it art? Probably not... but it's really easy to do and lots of

I love pasta, especially fresh pasta. I don't know about where you live but fresh pasta is very expensive where I live. To wrap your head around the numbers a bit, a package of dried pasta of good quality is very inexpensive, 900gr (about 2lbs) for about 1.30 and fresh pasta runs for about 4.50 for 300-350gr... not even a pound!!

When my ex left, he took whatever he wanted.. well, I didn't exactly stop him, I was a sobbing wet rag that couldn't see farther than the blur of tears in my eyes. He took all his tools, and he had plenty of them, duplicates, triplicates... and left me with nothing but a bunch of junk, some shovels, gardening tools

Well, I've been out a few times to see the ducks... it's such a long walk. I'm looking to buy myself a bike. I would be able to get fresh air, a bit of exercise and not have to walk 3 miles to get there. I'm just not sure what bike I want. There is a Schwinn at Canadian tires that looks pretty nice, but I have no info on it.. and as far as I can see, it may be just a cheap version that Schwinn

I've been really not doing as much photography as I would like. I 've had all the excuses but now is the time to start again. I guess I'm a little afraid of staring back at my monitor and just seeing the mediocrity of the photos... don't take any, don't have to worry about how good you are. Well, anyways, last week I went into the woods that are really very very close to hereand it was blistering

Well, it's been ages since I've posted so I guess it's time to let you know how I am.Spring is supposedly here, but it's still cold outside. We had a few really nice days last week, but there is still plenty of snow on the grass although the streets are for the most part clean and dry. This morning however, I woke up to streets covered in snow.. the white stuff was falling from the sky very

I don't know if anyone still reads this but this is an update on what's happened in the last few months.My life really has been up and down a lot in the last few months.Since November of 2005, my dad was extremely sick and was in the hospital 3 times. It was pretty rough to see my dad like that, and on January 29, 2006.. my dad died. Although I was kind of expecting it, you are never truly

Last weekend we had our first concert. We have to arrive 2:30 hours early to have time to get dressed, made up, vocal exercises, sound checks with the orchestra. There is excitement in the air.. our first night out.. how will people like it.. will they like it? will they hate it, fall asleep! Putting on makeup is quite an ordeal. It's fun though, like playing when your a kid.. You cannot believe

Ok, well, I promised a bunch of time ago to come and post pictures.. and in my heart of hearts it was my intention, but I was just so pooped from rehearsals, had the photography team tournament, and then my dad entering the hospital all at once... just turned out to be a bit overwhelming for me.. and yes, top that off with a bit of procrastination and well.. nothing got done.So, we had 9 days of

Well, I haven't blogged in at least a week.. or more. JarJar left me a comment how he knew that I was busy, but please put up some pics.. so I guess maybe a few people do visit here and like seeing what I'm up to.. so I've got tons of pictures from the weekend.

It's been awhile, hasn't it? I've been running around, filling and filing papers. This whole mess is just too much and perhaps when get this all done, I can try and find myself again. Right now, it's humiliating to have to recount what's happening to me to strangers, to lawyers, secretaries and banks etc., On a sweet note, I went to see the doctor yesterday.

I really didn't have a great week. Financially, it's been rough, emotionally too... seems all I know to do is screw up. I thought I'd just make up my mind to be strong and that would be it. Not as easy as I thought.. and I don't really feel that I can reach out to anyone anymore about it. I've become too needy and surely an annoyance. I just wish I could snap my fingers and everything would be

Today, after 3 months, exactly I finally took off my wedding ring. I don't know why I kept it on all this summer with everthing I was going through.. but it was just so hard to take it off.I cried.. I cried for what we had, for what we could have had.. and how it was all gone. I cried for the good times, because there were good times. I cried for the young couple we were that believed ( well, I

Today is my birthday. There will be no cake or candles, but that's ok.. I'm having a good day. Several people have written and said Happy Birthday in the Sugar Shack at Worth1000. To me it feel like a great big Birthday Card and fills me with much joy.

All morning there were thunderstorms. I have gotten up quite early but went back to bed. Felt good to get up late and well-rested. I had a photo session to do at 2. This was not quite a glamour shoot. I had to take pictures of a woman's plastic surgery scars. She had a face lift a couple years ago and the scarring was so bad it turned out looking like fat worms all around her ears. It sure makes

Mentally, I'm trying to keep positive and I want to thank all of you that left such kind and encouraging comments on my blog entries. It really does help to know that people care. Going to rehearsals has helped me too. Even though it's lots of work, it's just so good to be around people that I like and I feel like me. We are a touchy -feely kind of troupe.. so when we meet each night, there are

I thought I'd show you some pics I took during our rehearsals. I'm pretty tired after these 3 rehearsals... so I won't go into great detail.. but thought you might enjoy these. To put this in context a bit.. the people you see here are characters in a video game. These are from a hero/quest type game.This scene with the bard, the sire, the magician and the charming thief as they are all scrunched

Last time I posted I talked about how I wasn't going to let myself be hurt anymore. How I was going to be strong and happy. I had wasted 2 months torturing myself. I was ready to get on with it and be happy and get back in shape and feel good. What I hadn't realized was that the last 2 months had actually taken a much worse toll on me than I ever had realized.About 2 weeks ago, I decided I'm not

Yes, it's been awhile since the last update. There have been days that I feel like I've taken two steps forward and then other's where I take one step back. All in all, what is important, I guess, is that I'm progressing, slowly but surely. I guess I was hoping that it would just progress, but surely the back and forth is what makes us human. When I look back over the last 2 months, I see how

Tomorrow it will be a month since he left. I wish I could say that I feel great, but it wouldn't be true. I still haven't slept in our bed. I still sleep on the couch and I don't sleep enough. I am getting better though, I don't cry as much unless he comes by, then it's really touch. Saturday he came and got more things.

This last week has been pretty horrendous. I've been in pain and vacillating completely between being a responsable person and doing what's got to be done and falling completely to bits and not being able to eat or sleep.Last Wednesday, my husband came home after supper and very blank-faced and unemotionally told me he had met someone, that liked what he liked, and that he now only loved me as a

We've had 5 rehearsals this week, culminating in our last 2 rehearsals ... a very informal concert/practice that was in front of friends and family. We started the day with a brunch and then continued on to the concert hall.. where in the afternoon we rehashed Act I .. completely until 5:30. Left had a quick supper and came back to be onstage for 7... where we continued until past 10:00pm.

I've had a really busy week and not a lot of time to blog. We are ending our session of rehearsals this week.. before taking a month off. (well, from singing anyways... in about 2 weeks we will probably be start working on making props) . That means 5 practices this week and a informal concert Sunday night for friends and family. These last practices are pretty great. The soloists have started

I used to update this thing every couple of days and it's been about a week, I guess I'm getting lazy. Last Sunday, I went to see a concert with a choir that sings pop songs, mostly 80's stuff. I went to see it because Claudette sings in it and she's like a second mom to me. She has 2 daughter's my age but they don't bother to go and see her.

I've just finished reading the book, 'Digital Fortress' by Dan Brown. He's the same author that wrote the 'DaVinci Code'. The book was alright but too easy. As soon as they fingered a certain person in the beginning 1/3 of the book, I was already sure it wasn't him.. and had by the middle of the book already figured out pretty much who did what.. and the only reason to read was to see if I was

At first when I called my internet service they weren't sure what the problem was.. then after was told that they got a communiqué that it would be 4 to 6 hours.

Last night, we went to the Cabaret Richelieu. It is a fun concert made up of sketches done by people here in town to raise money that is then distributed to different causes and projects. It is amazing how much they can cram into 2 hours. Sorry about the quality, but being about 200 feet from the stage, and the camera hand-held at slow shutter speeds, I'm lucky to have gotten the shots that I did

When I got to the top of our street...I started walking down the boulevard.. and noticed how pretty the leafless tress were against the dark sky.. and went back home and picked up my tripod and camera and decided to take some shots.

I notice more and more how I really do need time to be just alone.. just me and my thoughts... or no thoughts at all.. just being alone to breathe.. no phone, no tv... nobody. Last night, after a late supper, I went out for a walk.. not to get exercise, not to see the sights or talk to anyone.. but just to be all alone. It must have been 9:30 or maybe even later..

Wednesday, may very well be my favorite day of the week. Today especially... with all the stuff with my dad going on, it feels so good to go somewhere and be so occupied and concentrated on doing something that you are completely in another space and don't have a minute to think or worry about other things. Since last week, we are no longer doing ateliers and James is so amazing, pushing us to be

Oh, I hoped to not have to whine anymore, but I`m very frustrated with my dad. He finally got out of the hospital on Monday. Before leaving he had an X-ray to take and a chest exam. Yesterday, he was already complaining about the new pills they were giving him, because they changed the prescription and now he had to pay for new ones and the other ones were wasted, if you want. I understand his

Yesterday I woke up with a crink in my neck. I must have slept in an odd position. I couldn't really turn my neck much to the left or lift my arm.. it was quite painful. I spent the whole day walking around like some kind of robot. It is very difficult to look relaxed and confident when you are walking around like a stiff board, the crink in my neck also put quite a crink in my style ;-) Remember

Well, I haven't blogged a lot in the last two weeks, just busier than normal I guess.. and probably a little lazy too. Since my last entry my dad has gone into the hospital. He had a bad cold and the doctor gave him antibiotics but the infection still continued into his lungs and now he has pneumonia. This is the second time he gets pneumonia but this time doesn't seem to be as bad as last time.

I was talking to Tracey yesterday and she was asking about older productions and was surprised how long it took us to put something together..so I told her I would put up some pictures showing what we have already done.. in front and behind the scenes. Sadly I don't have any better pictures than these... but this year I promise to take better ones. so here are some of the pics, I hope you enjoy

Day before yesterday I whined alot about the crummy day I had. Yesterday started off in such a way that I thought, "Oh, no.. not again!" In the morning I went out to get the mail.. and when I opened the door..the outside handle..literally came apart from the door.. and a few pieces fo the mechanism fell out .. and the handle did a 180 degree to rest upside on the door. Last year, I received a

I guess you could say my crummy day sort of started last night. Yesterday, I was talking to Heather about the Haiku contest and saying how I was entering because it would be fun and easy not having to shovel out 500 words. We talked a bit and I told her I was intimidated about writing and she was very sweet and supportive and said.. no..no.. write.. just write.. doesn't matter if it's crap.. just

I started doing my taxes by myself when I got my first job and then added Sylvain's to mine when we got married. It has never been something I have particularly liked, just something that had to be done. I've never complained about it but must admit as the years have passed I have come to dread it more and more each year. Anyways, this week I did ours. I gathered up everything.. then started..

Ever do write something one way your whole life and never realize it's incorrect?The other day I took a "Live Help" and I was answering the guy and I guess I kept saying things like alot of the time etc., because all of a sudden he says: "Is alot a Canadian thing?

Just like every Wednesday night, last night I had rehearsals and as always it was fun. Last night we worked on 2 specific parts.First we worked on act one... Think Robin Hood with his band of merry men frolicking and making folksy music. Lots of fun! Then we worked on act three. The section with pirates.. HA! wonderfully boisterous, loud, noisy, raucous, rough, rowdy. At first the women try to

Yay! Finally, our theatre is finished and ready. It's been closed for a year now so they could rip everything out .. redesign the stage .. change the seating and most importantly the acoustics. It reopens this weekend with a concert by Boom Desjardins, lead singer from "la Chicane" doing a solo concert. I guess it's sort of appropriate since he's from our town. ---Surgery.. ok, nothing major, nor

A couple of week's ago Sylvain was working late and called and said, "I'm not sure when I'll finish.. Don't make supper .. I 'll bring home a pizza". When he finally gets here.. he's a little upset. He wanted a large pizza because they had a promotion on them (something like 99 cents more than a medium) and that would leave plenty for cold pizza the next morning... and a snack later. He's says: "

The winter festival in our town only lasts a weekend, but it is alot of fun. There is a little bit for everyone if you can stand the cold. Friday evening opened with a short but really great display of fireworks. After the fireworks, they showed a movie, outdoors projected on a huge wall of snow. people sat on bales of hay to watch Jimmy Neutron. Later they had a small music concert out of doors

Tonight I went to the opening of our town's winter festival to try and get a few pictures of the fireworks. Of course it's winter and we are going to freeze our butt off, but who cares! The display is not huge but since you are very close it doesn't matter .. it is so awesome.. probably better than the hugest displays that you have to watch from across a river or miles away.

There is a Atom A hockey tournament in town this weekend. There are more than 50 teams participating. Most of the kids are about 10 years old. I went this evening and brought along my camera. This is the first time I have ever taken any type of sports photographs. Although not great, I did manage to get a few shots that I really like. I found it difficult to get good focus because the kids are

The place where I go to practice is not very far from where I live; probably about a 10 minute walk. Tonight on my way home while walking down one of the streets, all of the streetlights on that street went out. It got very dark all at once and felt very freaky. I guess I felt a little secure in the fact that I was in a small town, not that nothing ever happens here, just less of it, I suppose.It

Last Night's concert went well.. We got there early, waited a long time for our sound check because there were several different musicians that were playing there that night and they all had to get up a do a bit of their pieces for the sound and lights guy. The evening went well.. James was in a pretty good mood and very relaxed. If this concert would have been a few years ago.. he would have

I was just looking over our schedule for this year. Besides normal weekly rehearsals , we start stage rehearsals in June, have an intensive 8 days in August, a couple of weekends in September, October plus a full week at the end of October before doing our actual shows in November. This is besides all the work when we start building and painting sets and making props. Tonight's concert is just

If it were not for the fact that we have a concert on Saturday, I probably wouldn't have gone to rehearsal tonight. Although I'm feeling better, I'm not quite ready to sing. The last practice before a concert is always the most crucial though, last minute changes, stress on nuances etc., so I decided to go anyway. I'm very glad I went even though I wasn't in tiptop shape.... I always feel

Well, as much as I tried to avoid it, the cold I was trying to avoid got it's grippe(sic) on me. I felt too awful to go get (as Cyn suggested) Zinc tablets but took another friend's suggestion of a hot bowl of chicken soup.. and went to bed. I spent the weekend under covers and when awake watching the tube. I do remember watching 'School of Rock' but not much else. This morning I woke up

Sylvain has had a bad cold for a week now. I have been trying desperately not to catch it... I DO NOT want to be sick. Today, I started to feel scratching in my throat and shivery and goosebumpy! I'm not a happy camper :-( If anyone has any magic they can send to prevent this from happening.. I beg of you.. send it now!

Tonights rehearsals went well. We stayed a half hour later than usual, but it is true what they say: when you are having fun, time flies. It is really starting to look like something. We have a long way to go but we can already see the parts starting to fit together. It is quite exciting. Tonight, we had a few musicians in to work with us instead of just the piano. It was pretty wild for awhile

Where was I tonight around 10 p.m.? Taking a walk in the park and taking pictures. It the first time in weeks that the cold has broken enough to bring the camera out. -40 is not the best thing for a digital camera. Anyways.. here's are a few pictures. It's a lovely park and only about 5 minutes from where I live. I didn't have a tripod because I didn't want to schlep it in the snow and

Hey, we had a small earthquake here this afternoon.. Nothing for anyone to be worried about (it was minor) but very rare around these parts. I was on the computer finishing up work I had procrastinated doing the days before and heard what sounded like a snowplow scraping the road.. but directly on the ground. There was nothing outside. I could feel the trembling in the caboose (;-D) though and

Last summer I bought myself a new photoprinter that Kitten recommended and I must say it is a real jewel. It prints incredible photos at lightning speed, full color high resolution 8 x 10s in about a 1 minute and so quietly that when I first got it I would stand up and check if it was really printing.. yes that quiet. I never appreciated the 6 individual ink tanks as much as today though. After

Boy, the forums at Worth has been incredibly quiet since yesterday... it's weird. Maybe there is some huge sporting event or something going on that I'm not aware of. Anyways, I've made a batch of cookies, they are warm out of the oven, and waiting just for you! You can have milk, coffee, tea.. whatever you want.. just come on over, I could sure use the company.

I've been procrastinating all day. I have these forms that the members of the troupe filled out to put together with the photographs I took and to turn it all into something easy to access and read for the director and the costume designer.

After my shower this evening before going to practice, I put on a new bra that I bought last week. Before buying it, I tried it on and it fit fine but you know how it is.. there are labels and plastic wires attached for price tags etc., so it is normal that it sometimes picks a bit. Tonight I put on the bra.. it looked fine but felt like something was jabbing me on the left. This wasn't a

Yesterday, I finally sat down to watch 'Cold Mountain'. I had heard all about it being a great historical romance. There were certain parts that I just loved. The battle scenes at the beginning were very well done although I suspect that during that time the soldiers would have taken more than silver and metal.. they would have stripped them naked and left them to rot.. of course this was alot
