I'm baaaaaaaack!!!

Hi Kids!
So I took a break! I really needed it. We went to Mexico for 5 months. I called it my healing journey and my daughter's cultural journey. We had a great time. Well there were some bumps. There are always bumps.

You can check it all out here if you weren't following us.

and if you like Instagram well you can check out all the photos I posted under #AdventurezInMexico

So I am going to take it slow and easy. So proud to see everyone at the #ProtecttheInlet last week. I couldn't make it, I was staying out in Mission but I tweeted everything I could.

Check out the rainbow I saw on my way out to Mission last week. There was even a rainbow in my hair. Ha! Ha! Goofed up the selfie but it actually turned out.

Check out this beautiful eagle I saw the other day. I felt really blessed. He/She was up in the big tree looking down, watching over me. It was a powerful sign to me, they both are, rainbows-hope, eagles - ancestors watching over me.

Well I am going to keep this short and sweet. Hope all is well in your world. Sending out lots of love and light.

Take care of yourselves. If there is one thing I learned in the last year but especially last five months. Put the oxygen mask on yourself first. You can't help anyone unless you are healthy and happy. So that what we did. I went to a beautiful place and took care of myself and my kid and re-focused.

Stay tuned.

Signs: Eagles & the Moon

Well I haven't posted in 8 days!

How are YOU doing out there?  How is life treating you?  Have you had some really interesting happenings in your lives.

I have.

Many strange happenings and goings on.

We have powerful forces at work I must say. With all the cRaZy energy generated from just the whole Trump thing...the world has whiplash.

Pipelines, Indigenous Rights, Human Rights, Mother Earth Rights, #WaterIsLife, #MniWiconi, #Standing Rock, well I don't know about you but whoo eee, there's some strong opinions out there and a lot of unenlightened people who think the $$$ rules...

Now let's throw Christmas into the pot and BOOM!

Has the stress monster got you?

Families are just not jiving from what I am hearing and a lot of people are just buggin' in or buggin' out.  Forget the holly jolly happy family get together because no one is speaking to each other and if they are, it's an argument... sort of an analogy for what's going on in the world ...when you zoom out and look at the REALLY big picture.

Anyways, we are going to have a lovely quiet little Christmas,(let peace begin with us) and I have been getting in the spirit with the help of the greater powers that be.

Yesterday I had a very successful little shopping trip and on the way home connected with this woman who needed directions. Turned out we were heading the same way. She was going through some very hard times with the loss of a loved one and I could totally relate. Christmas is so hard the first year after you lose someone and every year after because you miss them so much.

We had a great chat. I felt our loved ones put us in each others path for a reason.
Later I had a fun little experience...

I saw Santa.

He was at Granville Island. I was looking for a gift and he was calling kids for storytime. He's so sweet, suggested we have a selfie together and then this lady offered to take it. (Thank you!! )

When I was walking home I saw how beautiful the mountains were, so I grabbed my camera and went out but clouds had rolled in and I couldn't see the mountains but then guess what!!

The eagles were there!!
Hurray! These are the best photos of eagles I have ever taken.

I have lots more, these are the best. It was hard to do, I wasn't using a tripod. I love my camera, it has a fantastic zoom and auto focus. I am going to make a video and maybe put the eagle and moon photos together and try to carve them.

And then this morning the beautiful moon in all her glory!!

Today I ran out to Surrey to drop off some gifts and WOW! they still have snow and it's COLD! Cold here in Kitsilano but no snow. The sun is shining and I love that. Okay will post more photos/videos soon.

Sending out love and light that good things are happening to you...Just to let your know...it was just after I had sent out a little prayer to help people who were missing someone this Christmas that I connected with this woman. Send out love and light to all and put your loved ones in bubbles of love this holiday season and keep everyone safe and happy!

Save BC's Endangered Forests

Please sign this petition. I believe our survival and children's survival depends on preserving our forest. I want to take my child to see these huge giants and the eagles and all the incredible flora and fauna that is critical to a healthy environment.

One day I would like to take my child and spend time with a wise elder and learn the precious knowledge about the forest that needs to be passed on to us.  Please take action to protect all forests.


Petition to Protect British Columbia’s Endangered Old-Growth Forests and Forestry Jobs http://www.ancientforestpetition.com/

Old-growth forests are important because they:
  • Sustain wildlife, including species at risk that can’t flourish in younger forests.
  • Store vast quantities of atmospheric carbon. Coastal old-growth forests store twice or more carbon per hectare than the ensuing second-growth tree plantations that they are replaced with.
  • Provide clean water for people, salmon, trout, and wildlife.
  • Act as fundamental pillars of BC’s multi-billion dollar tourism industry.
  • Are important parts of many First Nations cultures.  Read and sign petition here

Seen here is Canada's largest tree, a western redcedar named the Cheewhat Giant growing in a remote location near Cheewhat Lake within Pacific Rim National Park Reserve on southerwestern Vancouver Island. The tree measures over 6 meters (20 feet) in trunk diameter, 56 meters (182 feet) in height, and 450 cubic meters in timber volume (or 450 regular telephone poles worth of wood). Luckily the tree, discovered in 1988, is within the Pacific Rim National Park Reserve, which was created in 1971. Read more here
