James Brown Practising his song he wrote

Run For the Cure !

I had an inspiring thought that ,where I was into walking alot that I should put that effort into something worth while. Something to give to the community and have fun doing it. I decided to raise , or try and raise a little funding for " Breast Cancer research. So many of my friends have had this life changing disease so any help I could give I would try my hardest to accomplish. I raised over $300. and trained all summer for the run/walk. I DID IT ! Never thought I could run 5 KM but I did.

It's a new day !

Well, It's certainly new to me ! After living in the valley area of Nova Scotia my entire life ,things change unexpectedly sometimes.I met my personal challenge of closing a business I owned and operated in Wolfville for 15 years . One of the hardest things I ever had to do, but things were out of my control. Now the search was on to build a new life . My search brought me here to this place, Bedford . My boyfriend suggested I try and find work in the city, something that I would never have done on my own. I am so glad that I followed his lead. We now live in Bedford and share a cute apartment, my new job is close and it is starting to feel like home. Although I will always call my home in the valley , HOME . This is the next best thing.

Enjoy my video !

My first stop at the Halifax Public Gardens this summer was worth every second. In the heart of Halifax there is this little piece of heaven. My boyfriend Terry showed me around one Sunday and I must say , Very nice !!This is a place worth taking a few minutes to take a stroll and smell the flowers . We decided to take in the waterfront as well , and took the ferry across to Dartmouth over the Halifax Harbour. It was a nice Natal Day Holiday.
