Jury duty



Have you ever been called for jury selection leading to jury duty? I have not - until now.

Gives an entire new meaning to "Walk a mile in my shoes."

Day one for jury selection was last week, to be continued this week and then the jury will be in place for a first degree murder trial.

The Judge was very firm, educational and professional with us. Makes you think, about many things.

If I am selected (the final selection is via names pulled from a drum so it really is a selection versus being chosen.  I didn't know that.) I won't be blogging about the trial at all.

It is official ...



We have a hockey player in the family!

Love the mouth guard.....

Speaking of time flying ...



It's true - get busy!

Maybe I will wrap a few gifts today!!

JJ turns eight!

I won't share pix of Jalen's NINE friends who came to celebrate with him but trust me they had fun and were very loud.  Tracey and James monitored a hockey game outside and all fights that broke out inside - just kidding about the fight part. 

Lexi couldn't quite figure it all out believe me. She sat on my lap and kept saying "boys." I do believe she was saying it with some confusion in her young mind.  Too funny.

Have a great Monday.

LASS


Lexi loves hanging out in Nana's car - we don't go anywhere of course because she needs a back seat but she loves it anyway.

Thank You!



My goodness, thank you for your interest in my novel, Paradise Pu'Olo. 

When I blogged earlier today that I am working on a book about Comfort Heart stories many of you contacted me to ask what happened to my novel. Not to worry - it is still on the front burner. Simmering as I type.

It's called multi-tasking and I know you all do it!

New book - From the Heart



For the past few days I have been working on what I hope will be a new book - and a fundraiser at the same time.

I could use your help.  This book will contain stories about what the Comfort Heart has meant to you, or to someone you have given a Comfort Heart to. 

I have hundreds of letters to pour through but some of you may not have yet shared your favourite  "Comfort Heart story" so please share it with me now.

Have a gentle Friday and a great weekend.

I will be with family this weekend. Jalen's birthday party with his little 8 year old friends will be on Sunday so there is much to do!

Love

Carol Ann
