http://canuckfamily.blogspot.com/2013_04_01_archive.html
Thursday, April 18, 2013. For a few months this winter I had some icky mental health issues (which have since been resolved. Apparently hormonal birth control can cause major anxiety and panic attacks. THE MORE YOU KNOW) and before I figured out what was causing it, I prescribed myself leafy greens and exercise to try to combat the issue. Program, and people kept talking about how it changed their lives, and I figured what the hell, it can't hurt to try. The difference this has made in just one month is ...

The American Canuck: London calling to the faraway towns
http://canuckfamily.blogspot.com/2013/07/london-calling-to-faraway-towns.html
Friday, July 26, 2013. London calling to the faraway towns. Mr Canuck and I are heading to England in September and I CANNOT WAIT. We're going primarily for a friend's wedding, but will also be seeing several other friends and bopping around the countryside. I have wanted to go to England for as long as I can remember and I can't quite believe it's really happening. 1 Sing "London Calling" every time we step outside.*. 2 Hang around outside Buckingham Palace and ask loudly when we'll get to see the Queen.

In)fertility, foster care and what happens after. June 12, 2013. Denying the loss, I know I am finally ready to really open our home back up. We’ve had a few calls, mostly ones that don’t fit our profile. But, a few weeks ago we had a call that I think could have been a perfect fit. A 13 year old girl who had a relatively stable life and good relationships within her family. Until she didn’t. Husband said no, absolutely not. Words were exchanged. An argument ensued. Thirteen year old girl. And I wait, be...

The American Canuck: I suck
http://canuckfamily.blogspot.com/2013/03/i-suck.html
Saturday, March 16, 2013. Haha, two days in to my "writing every day" goal and I've already missed a day. This is entirely typical of me. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). So who am I? An American expat in Canada. Cautiously optimistic that people might find me interesting. Yo, Is This Racist? To people think Trump is just faking bigotry. If you spend a great deal of your time pretending to be an asshole to get a reaction from people.you aren't pretending. You are an asshole. Books i done read.

Just a Little Frustrated | The Roads I've Taken
https://jennsthoughts.wordpress.com/2009/02/27/just-a-little-frustrated
The Roads I’ve Taken. Thoughts on life and adoption as a First Mom and an Adoptive Mom. (Or just as Mom). February 27, 2009. Just a Little Frustrated. With my daughter’s 22. Birthday approaching at alarming rate, I find I have a mix of happiness and sadness. Today, I definitely felt the sadness. Maybe I should say the mix of sadness with frustration that can only come from loving the child I gave birth to, but according to Hallmark I can’t buy a suitable card. Why, you ask? Anyone have any cheese? Last y...
