The world through Debs eyes: April 2011
http://theworldthroughdebseyes.blogspot.com/2011_04_01_archive.html
The world through Debs eyes. Monday, April 25, 2011. Until we meet again.thank you Ken. I remember when we first met. I fell in love with your witty sense of humour and laughed at the stories you told, while your son just glared at you. He wasn't sharing our humour at all, which made it even funnier. And I'll always think of you when we play with the Wiiiiiiiiiii. Your wit and intelligence showed through as did your many talents and I can certainly understand how Mrs. D. fell in love with you. Of course ...

The world through Debs eyes: March 2011
http://theworldthroughdebseyes.blogspot.com/2011_03_01_archive.html
The world through Debs eyes. Monday, March 28, 2011. I remember a time in my life when I was very independent; insistent to never have to depend on a man for anything. Somehow over the years, that changed. It's not even worth my time to go over the old stuff and the beliefs I've formed over the years that were not my beliefs to start with. Not to mention how my body likes to remind me day after day. Getting older does that, doesn't it? While I let Mollie out to do her 'biz'. As for starting the fire, I'd...

The world through Debs eyes: July 2010
http://theworldthroughdebseyes.blogspot.com/2010_07_01_archive.html
The world through Debs eyes. Tuesday, July 20, 2010. I've been somewhat following the news coverage of the recent G20 summit in the GTA. I'm not going to even bring up the topic of all the wasted tax money that could have been used elsewhere. That's why we had peaceful protests to begin with. What really bothers me the most is how our tax dollars were spent on paying bullies to harass the peaceful protesters and perhaps, as theory has it, even started much of the violence. She was blowing bubbles. In the...

The world through Debs eyes. Tuesday, August 12, 2014. Robin Williams, Depression and Suicide. I'm not generally somebody who follows the lives of celebrities, unless they make big news and even then, nothing in their lives has affected me like reading "Robin Williams dead in apparent suicide". I literally cried. And I'm still crying as I put my thoughts into words. I've lived with depression for as long as I can remember. I can think of two reasons right away. 2 Misinformed or not understanding. I can o...

The world through Debs eyes: Saying Goodbye Creatively...
http://theworldthroughdebseyes.blogspot.com/2011/05/saying-goodbye-creatively.html
The world through Debs eyes. Saturday, May 7, 2011. There's an old expression I've never liked: "there are two thing you can count on.death and taxes". I don't really mind the taxes so much but I can honestly say, I've had enough of death. As I'm hitting fifty this year, death has become something I feel even more strongly about. Or maybe it's just that there's been so much of it. There's even a company out there who claims to make a diamond out of your ashes. So much to choose from. My Father-in-law rec...

The world through Debs eyes: A Very Special Tree...
http://theworldthroughdebseyes.blogspot.com/2011/12/very-special-tree.html
The world through Debs eyes. Sunday, December 4, 2011. A Very Special Tree. My mother turned seventy-three almost two months ago. She's always been a real go-getter and though she's gone through surgery for knee replacement and suffers with arthritis, she hasn't really slowed down. Well, my mother, being ever so wanting to please, standing 4' 10" and weighing 87 pounds; bought me my watermelon. Like many people, things have been tight since I'm been out of work. Barry and I decided together that havi...

The world through Debs eyes. Thursday, August 18, 2011. My celebration of the big 5-0. It seems that after such an extremely hot July that August has brought Autumn with it. Even my garden is reacting to the colder nights. This August is also bringing in a special celebration for me as I will be turning fifty years old. It's really funny how fast that happens. One minute you're holding your new born baby and the next, you're holding your grand-child. Many children lose their hair due to medical condition...

The world through Debs eyes: October 2010
http://theworldthroughdebseyes.blogspot.com/2010_10_01_archive.html
The world through Debs eyes. Thursday, October 21, 2010. I Work at a Call Centre. From the time I was about Eighteen years old until I was Forty, most my working life was taking the call. I started out early in an answering service in Toronto. Back then we used the old cord boards. I didn't enjoy it very much at all and thankfully, after a month or so, was transferred upstairs where my job entailed taking the calls. And paging them out; as well as monitoring alarms (fire, burglar, etc.). My older son is ...

The world through Debs eyes: A Cat Named Troll...
http://theworldthroughdebseyes.blogspot.com/2011/11/cat-named-troll.html
The world through Debs eyes. Thursday, November 24, 2011. A Cat Named Troll. He came into our lives when I needed him the most. They called him Dustball as he looked a lot like a dustball, blowing in the breeze. I will never forget the day we went to the Oliver farm to choose one of Taz' offspring. They were all orphaned at two weeks of age as their mommy, Taz, was hit by a car. I instantly fell in love and he came home with us. Of course in our home, all of our furry family members have nick-names. ...
