Today is October 15th, Pregnancy and Infant Loss Awareness Day. I’ll be lighting candles for my son Declan and the 3 babies I lost in miscarriage before him. For all participating in this meaningful global event at 7pm, I take comfort in knowing that my light will glow amidst yours around the world.

Feeling grateful for all of the love, family and food that surrounded me this weekend. Happy Thanksgiving! 🎃🌻💛

Every year on October 15th at 7pm local time, families around the world light candles to honour babies we have lost. Together, these flames create a continuous wave of light that travels across the globe and is a powerful reminder that the memory of our baby shines on. There is no cost to join us 💜

Oh Jane - thanks for your wisdom and compassion towards sentient beings. The animal advocacy world is forever changed because of you. 💛 #JaneGoodall

Pleased to announce the Wave Of Light for Hamilton this year is happening at the Stadium in the City Lounge. #HamOnt #October15 #WaveOfLight #PregnancyAndInfantLoss www.facebook.com/share/p/1CpR...?

Many of us women who attended Lilith Fair are now in perimenopause or have reached menopause. - don’t be effing with any of us.

Popped on to read all of the posts about the Lilith Fair documentary - I’m feeling all of the feels too! An AMAZING watch! Saw it on @cbcgem.bsky.social

Lilith Fair started when Halifax, Nova Scotia musician Sarah McLachlan, found the music industry wouldn't feature multiple female artists together. Promoters said, 'You can't do that. You can't put two women on the same bill. People won't come'. They were wrong. www.cbc.ca/documentarie...

If anyone needs a break from the noise, #CBC just posted the new Lilith Fair doc (think it's the one that was at #tiff ) Just started it now.. 🥂 to the 🇨🇦ian gem, Sarah McLachlan #CanadianContent 🇨🇦📢 @savethecbc.bsky.social 👀⤵️ youtu.be/R0DrZGl39as?...

Mega dairy farms confining 37,500 cows in North Dakota would cause a staggering amount of pollution to #LakeWinnipeg & enormous harm to animals—who endure horrifying cruelty in the dairy industry. This project must be CANCELLED! 🐮

Fellow Gen X Canadians and older, will we be taking a gander at Gander Social when it becomes available? Or are we just done with joining new social platforms? 🇨🇦 #Canada #Canadian

👎 Cruelty is NOT entertainment. Animal Justice staff lawyer Alexandra Pester joined advocates in Calgary to call out the #CalgaryStampede’s violent rodeo & chuckwagon events. Tell WestJet it's irresponsible to continue sponsoring this animal abuse ➡️ animaljustice.ca/westjet-cruelty

Yikes I had no idea this was happening at Park's Furniture. Shopped there a few times -- this is pretty awful. #HamOnt www.chch.com/chch-news/ha...

Nothing hurts my soul more working on the Gore Park line for people suffering in hunger and homelessness than seeing young women living in poverty so profound they don’t have shoes or a change of clothes. No one should live this way. We must do better as a society #onpoli #Ontario #hamont

It’ll always be Copps to me. Like how the Skydome is forever the Skydome. 🤷🏻‍♀️

Feeling rather zen after a weekend in Quebec at Nordik Spa.

Remember Spokey Dokes on bike spokes as a kid? Thinking this might be the adult version of those. 🚲🍷 #Kew #Niagara #Winery

Waiting in my car at one of those drive up windshield repair places. Never used one before but it’s impressive work they do here!

I’ve sent my vote off to Elections Canada This is the most consequential election of my adult life, the issues are quite literally existential for our country As chaos reigns in the world around us, all Canadians (at home and abroad) should make sure to vote and be heard 🇨🇦 🍁 #elbowsup #cdnpoli

A Moment In Time... It was one year ago today - April 8th, 2024 - that I was able to photograph the SOLAR ECLIPSE. It was the experience of a lifetime. 📸🇨🇦 { "All that we see or seem, is but a dream within a dream. " - Edgar Allan Poe } #SolarEclipse2025 #AstroPhotography #Sony #Ontario #Canada

Up close footage of this magnificent species 🦉

Fear has a way of being contagious. But courage is also contagious.

Went to see Jamie Petrie play and he brought up this kid from the #HamOnt band Lost Faculty who did a Glorious Sons cover of “Mama” and NAILED it! 🎶👏🏻

I walked over to Locke to pick up treats and used a lot of energy to dodge the rain, so I’ve probably burned all of the calories off ahead of time. ☔️🍩🍪🍷☕️ 🍝 #WalkOnLocke #Kirkendall #HamOnt #CraigsCookies #DonutMonster #Arties #LCBO #Starbucks

Discovered an old, but new to me little Hamilton gem last night. Live music and good food - with Keith’s on tap! 🍻 #HamOnt
