A heady combination of …
What is the most important thing to carry with you all the time? If I could only nominate ‘the most’ important it would need to be the combination of an open mind, compassion for self and others, a sense of self-efficacy, a tenacious spirit and a great sense of irreverence or humour. With that combination…

disABILITY …
What change, big or small, would you like your blog to make in the world? This is a great question and one which requires a decent, thoughtful response. I would like my post to resonate with families of children with disabilities. I would like it if just one person was able to take from my…

Limitless
Describe your life in an alternate universe. Should I set the scene in a utopian landscape, or a sun-lit noir dystopia? Am I powerful? Powerless? Impoverished or privileged? Do I have agency and influence over my life? Or am I like a rag doll that’s left to senselessly ride the turbulent waves of life? Am…

What’s the most money you’ve ever spent on a meal? Was it worth it? I’m going to answer this from a different angle.

Exercising my green thumb
Describe one habit that brings you joy. Like most people I’ve got a mixed bag of relatively good and bad habits. Some of which provide a great source of joy, regardless if I’ve done it a million times already. Tending to both my indoor and outdoor plants is a constant source of joy. Every morning…

Little Miss Eclectic.
What are you curious about? The question should read “what aren’t I curious about?”. I have, and, always have had an insatiable appetite to know ‘why’ or ‘how’ of ‘what’ this or that is the way it is. I want to know how much a cloud weighs, or what’s the distance between this cloud and…

Why?
What are you curious about? I was that kid, you know the one who always wanted to know more. To actually know ‘why’ somethings were as they were. So long as I had the why, then I could eagerly and gleefully fill in the who, what, where, when, and how etc. For me the why…

Too embarrassed
What’s the story behind your nickname? There is no escaping the fact that families can be cruel when it comes to nicknames. I should know firsthand. I think being the 8th child of 10 kids gave me plenty of exposure to name-calling and nicknames. My Dad’s nickname for me was Candle Sticks. Yep, you read…
