Still writing, still learning, still discovering new ways to write fiction. Paradise, my first fiction is a work in progress and I am devoting much of my time to this. I hope you will understand. <div>

<b><span style="color: purple;">I haven't blogged for so long - sorry to all of my friends who catch up with me here. I have no real excuse other than I took a break from this social media site for the summer. I find Facebook, Linkedin, Twitter and Blogging a bit much on top of my website but as long as I maintain my speaking business I will maintain all of the above. ... with the exception of this blog for long periods of time as you have seen this summer.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: purple;"><br /></span></b>
<b><span style="color: purple;">I took a long vacation this summer and spent over a month in my home province - Nova Scotia. With the exception of "Arthur" the weather was the best it has been in the month of July in years. </span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: purple;"><br /></span></b>
<b><span style="color: purple;">These pictures of Lexi were taken yesterday. Jalen is away with his other grandparents for the week so a visit with my son and family meant I had a bit more one on one time with Lexi. She is such a delight.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: purple;"><br /></span></b>
<b><span style="color: purple;">One very funny exchange with Lexi went like this ...</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: purple;"><br /></span></b>
<b><span style="color: purple;">Lexi: Nana I know what the lights mean (the stop lights as we were driving along).</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: purple;"><br /></span></b>
<b><span style="color: purple;">Me: Okay, what does the red light mean?</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: purple;"><br /></span></b>
<b><span style="color: purple;">Lexi: Stop.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: purple;"><br /></span></b>
<b><span style="color: purple;">Me: The green light?</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: purple;"><br /></span></b>
<b><span style="color: purple;">Lexi: Go.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: purple;"><br /></span></b>
<b><span style="color: purple;">Me: And the amber light? With hands in the air and in a very loud voice the reply came.....</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: purple;"><br /></span></b>
<b><span style="color: purple;">Lexi" SLOW DOWN PEOPLE! </span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: purple;"><br /></span></b>
<b><span style="color: purple;"><br /></span></b>
<b><span style="color: purple;">It was a laugh out loud moment.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: purple;"><br /></span></b>
<b><span style="color: purple;">From the heart,</span></b><br />

<b><i><span style="color: #990000;">They say you can't go back and I guess if you expect things to be the same that expression might be true.</span></i></b><br />
<b><i><span style="color: #990000;"><br /></span></i></b>
<b><i><span style="color: #990000;">Margaretsville was once a hub of activity on a Sunday afternoon. Walking on the wharf, eating homemade ice cream and sitting on the huge rocks....today, not so much. </span></i></b><br />
<b><i><span style="color: #990000;"><br /></span></i></b>
<b><i><span style="color: #990000;">The wharf is no longer maintained so you enjoy it at your own risk, the ice cream is no long home made and only available for a couple of hours on Sunday. </span></i></b><br />
<b><i><span style="color: #990000;"><br /></span></i></b>
<b><i><span style="color: #990000;">However the rocks are still there! Phyllis and I walked down memory lane and loved it. The Artist Shop is alive and well and I always try to shop there - great to support the local artists.</span></i></b><br />

<b>Sam, Judy, JC and I had our annual luncheon yesterday here in Yorkville. We were working together when I retired from Bell in 1994 and now we work very hard to ensure we find time to meet at least once a year. We talk about Bell, friends, family, kids, grandkids and so much more.</b><br />

<b>Friendships are so important don't you think?</b><br />

<b>Recently, this has happened to me in reverse. </b><br />
<b><br /></b>
<b>A friend pushed and pushed and pushed - too much - and finally I realized I simply can't help. It isn't a case of not giving a damn but rather a case of realizing I am not the one who can help them.</b><br />
<b><br /></b>
<b>First, they have to realize they need help. Then, of course, they have to want it.</b><br />
