just a small town girl.

Just a small town girl living in a (not so) lonely world. Back in 2016, HuffPost published a blog post titled “13 Reasons to Date a Girl From a Small Town“. Among them were: She’s courageously independent for making the decision to leave home and explore the world; She’s a family girl – family is…

Tuesdays with Morrie is a brilliant memoir about the visits between two humans and the brilliant conversations they have. Well for me, it’s Thursdays with Jill. Or every day with Jill really. She rises with the sun. She feeds people who are hungry. She donates bread to community dinners. She opens up her artist studio to people who need to create and heal. She shares her ideas. She makes you believe in yourself. She warms up cinnamon buns so I can surprise my love. She bakes. She makes. She shines. And ... she rocks the lumberjill plaid. Who’s the Morrie in your life? Find that person that you can converse with: that intentional I’m-going-to-go-out-and-change-the-world-because-of-you kind of person. Share coffee, break bread, and coordinate your outfit with them 🖤 . . . #tuesdayswithmorrie #womenwhomake #bakery #morningrising #proudtoknowyou #thankyouforbeingafriend #coffeeconversations #lumberjill #buffaloplaid

Feel good hack: rise in the morning before the sun does, stretch, put on your favourite toque, get outside, breathe in the fresh air, walk the water, grab a takeaway coffee, stroll home and let the world know you’re here today. And oh yes, do take a cute photo to capture the good vibes 🤟 . . . #feelgood #lifehacks #morningrising #dailyritual #selfcare #takeawaycoffee #walkitout #getoutside #goodvibes

I live in a small town that celebrates Christmas with quaint traditions. One of them is Christmas Magic. Every year a citizen donates a tree for the grand lighting. This season, a fellow Councillor donated a tree that his daughter planted 40 years ago. When I told my partner this story he said, “Honey, we should get a small potted Christmas tree this year. We can plant it in the spring. We’ll watch it grow. Then, in forty years, we can donate our tree to Christmas Magic!” My heart grew three sizes during that conversation. We’ll be 77 then. It’s a beautiful sentiment. It’s also our first holiday together so we’re creating new traditions. And this little tree is a sweet sapling of what is yet to bloom. . . . #christmastree #petitepine #pine #housetree #decor #tradition #sentimental #smalltown #christmasmagic #thisisus #madlove

30 years later, we’re still here on the National Day of Remembrance and Action on Violence Against Women to honour the 14 women who lost their lives in the tragic mass shooting at L’Ecole Polytechnique de Montreal. We’re here remembering the missing and murdered Indigenous women across Canada. We’re here remembering the 37 women who are listed on the 2018/2019 Ontario Femicide List. 🌹 We’re still here and it makes sad to know that we may always be here - to remember, to take action, to raise our voice ... to break the silence on gender based violence. 🌹 Today, we remember. Tomorrow, and every day thereafter, I encourage you to take action. . . . #30yearsandstillcounting #oursactionmatters #wearestillhere #takeaction #nationaldayofremembranceformurdervictims #femicide #breakthesilence #genderbasedviolence #awareness #metoo

Discovering calm clarity amongst the coming of a cold, crisp season. This morning and her bounty of beauty. Finding grace in my daily walks has become my primary pursuit for balance and solitude. What is your practice or ritual for gratitude and guidance? . . . #morningrising #dailyrituals #practice #gratitudeandgrace #waterfront #selfportrait #guidance #calm #clarity #solitude #winter

Conversations

you’re pretty much magic.
just a small town girl.
wander alone.
intersections.
the bedlam of your beauty.
hope grows.
let’s talk…
courage, and grace too.
730 days sans moonshine.
songs are like tattoos.
