Easter Sunday


Last night I did a spring cleaning/tidy up of my room while 3 loads of laundry were also being done.  I'm in a phase where I want to get rid of clutter.  Anything that doesn't hold a very special place in my heart or is useful and being used regularly, needs to go.  I have a dream of fitting everything I own into the space of one large wardrobe.  It's that desire to pack up & live in a micro-home I suppose.

Today started slowly with all of us having a bit of a sleep-in.  Crockett and I went for a walk and now all I really want to do is laze on the couch in my jammies under a soft comfy blanket.

Crockett has been doing so well since he was diagnosed with Diabetes.  We have him on an insulin shot routine, he's eating a diet specifically for Diabetes and he's lost 4.5 lbs! 


This house had Easter decorations hanging from a tree in the front yard.  When I got closer, I realized they were all painted eggs. Adorable!

A Lovely Afternoon with Mom

Mom & I had a lovely Sunday afternoon together. 


We started with lunch (with Dad) at the Mövenpick Marché. We shared Caesar Salad, Seafood Noodle Soup, and a Turkey fancy bun/bread. I didn't take a photo of the crèpe we had for dessert.  It was so tasty.


 Then we went to Roy Thomson Hall to see the Toronto Symphony Orchestra.


 


 




The conductor was a young French Canadian named Mélanie Léonard and she was absolutely wonderful. I am so glad it was her.  The music was moving and it is a memory I am happy to have made.





 On the way back to Union Station, we came upon some more odd statues.  Whales and cows.  Always interesting.









I must apologize for the blurry photos. Needing new glasses and having a blurry spot n my lens makes for frustration and a whole whack of unusable photos.
