I am curious to know if any of you drive the Subaru BRZ?

Would love to hear from you if you do.I am car shopping as you may have guessed.  This one was not on my radar initially but it is now.

Friends connecting with friends

There are many who love facebook and many who do not. Say what you will but there is room for both views.  

Yesterday I heard from a Bell-retiree lady, we had only met once 'on the job' and now, years later, she is facing a cancer journey and wanted to contact me. She found me on facebook easily enough.

I an a great believer in leaning on family when they have more knowledge than I and I will be contacting my sister/brother in law (nurse/doctor) to learn more about a cancer that is new to me - chondrosarcoma.

I am grateful that with all this lady has to deal with she was able to find me with quick trip to facebook.

From the heart,

Carol Ann

Toronto's Distillery District ...worth the visit

 It's like stepping back in time honestly and you feel worlds away from where you actually are - in the heart of a concrete jungle!  Plan a trip to the Distillery district - you'll be glad you did.

A beautiful rainbow in a Toronto sky

It really is a beautiful sight.

A Toast to the Coast - Halifax October 18th

We often ignore the quality of quiet. 

I will speak about our listening skills (or lack of) and much more when I speak at the 9th annual Toast to the Coast on Friday October 18th at the beautiful Lord Nelson Hotel in Halifax.  www.atoasttothecoast.com will give you lots of information about the event. This is a huge fundraiser for the Canadian Breast Cancer Foundation - Atlantic Region and is put together and hosted by the School of Business Alumni at Dalhousie University.

I hope you will join me.

Love

Carol Ann
