Fortune #82.

Kindness is a quality of the soul? And here I've always thought that was more of a heart thing. Interesting.

Fortune #81.

It's true. No matter how much I sometimes wish I could quit them.

Fortune #80.

I have no idea what this could mean but I'm sure looking forward to it.

Fortune #79.

I'm not sure how this is a "fortune" per se. In fact, the more I think about it, the creepier it gets.

But, this is really good chocolate. So good it's almost sexy.

Fortune #78.

I don't know about me, but with her fashion sense I'm sure this kid is going places.

Fortune #77.

Three-in-one of a double.

It's starting to get a little creepy.

Fortune #76.

A two-for-one.

Does this mean I should have articled? I think my Mom is writing these things.

Fortune #75.

Fell asleep and forgot to post this one.

Needed my rest to keep up my energy for all that narcissism apparently.

Fortune #74.

The trees are alive again! Spring is finally here!!!

Fortune #73.

Happy Mother's Day!

Another double. Not a good one. Time for a new box of cookies methinks.

Fortune #72.

A double. But my toes looked kinda cute so I didn't mind.

Fortune #71.

Our sweet neighbours gave me their son's old bike after mine was stolen.

And I bought a new lock that's worth more than the bike. Just try to steal this one asshole.

Fortune #70.

My good friend in Alberta had her baby today. A little girl named Cordelia. So sweet!

Fortune #69.

My family is the best part of my life.

Fortune #68.

I had something funny to say about this one but then some douchebag stole my bike and I'm too bummed to be clever.

Fortune #67.

Today is the first day I'm riding my bike to work.

By coincidence it's also the first Monday of "Bike to Work Month".

It's also raining again (still?).

Fortune #66.

Me as a baby. About as emotional as I've ever been.

I'm a Scottish Virgo. Unemotional is how we role.

Fortune #65.

Someone is certainly a whole handful of trouble.

Fortune #64.

I'm not going to lie, I have no idea what this could mean. I guess I'll just have to wait and see.

Fortune #63.

The power was out for 12 hours.

Thank god for whisky and candles.

Fortune #62.

Suck it.

It seems that this is my kid's motto.

Fortune #61.

I also enjoy hyphens.

Fortune #60.

Spotting a familiar friend near the on-ramp to the 401.

SUNDAY, APRIL 24, 2011

Fortune #59.

I think this one applies more to our gracious host than me.

SATURDAY, APRIL 23, 2011

Fortune #58.

Or my not-so-hidden talent for picking up toys. Again, and again, and again.

FRIDAY, APRIL 22, 2011


Fortune #57.

Getting to sleep in before our drive to Toronto.

Fortune #56.

I did manage to con a couple of extra Easter eggs out of the office "bunny".

However, it's currently f@#king snowing so I guess wasn't charming enough for winter to take the hint and piss-off already.

Fortune #55.

What? I got snacky.

Fortune #54.

Pictured on top of a very small portion of my first Good Food Box.

Many thanks to Zoom@Knitnut for the heads-up on this great program!

Fortune #53.

Leaving on Friday to spend the Easter weekend with the in-laws. Some seriously gracious and generous people. Yup, I married me into a good family.

Also, a double. I must be an awesome guest.

Fortune #52.

I'm just praying the $15 I spent on dollar store crap today will help me survive a 2 x 5 hour road trip with a 20 month old.

Fortune #51.

Can you say "dialing it in"?

Of course, can someone really say they have good luck when they need to overcome so many hardships?

Fortune #50.

Damn straight!

Fortune #49.

Coffee with a good friend confirms this one.

Fortune #48.

I did manage to sell someone our old patio set today. Money in the bank.

Fortune #47.

My two favourite people always make things better.

Fortune #46.

I'm not really sure how those two ideas go together. Does imaginative mean dishonest intentions generally?

I'm not even sure that I know what a dishonest intention would be.

Fortune #45.

I feel that the less I say about this one, the better.

Fortune #44.

This must be referring to something other than my "success" at these grocery surveys because I never win a damn thing.

I think they're rigged.

Fortune #43.

Maybe not such a silly pack of cookies afterall.

Loving my new FiveFingers!

Fortune #42.

I'm thinking I need a new box of cookies. This one is a tad too chirpy for my taste.

Fortune #41.

I've got a bottle of wine and a great cheesecake brownie recipe: bring on the invites.

Fortune #40.

I'm happy to settle for a cool postcard.

Or a big cheque.

Fortune #39.

Blue skies. Nothing but blue skies.

Today I'd even settle for some goddamned rainbows.

Fortune #38.

It literally took me all day to come up with a staging for this photo.

Let's hope I handle actual problems with a bit more skill and promptness.

Fortune #37.

Sometimes doubles aren't so bad.

Although, I definitely didn't need to be told twice.

Fortune #36.

Normally I'd never describe myself as a sensitive person but lately I've been obsessed with this rather sappy lovey-dovey album.

Maybe I'm getting soft in my old age.

Fortune #35.

I blame Jen.

Fortune #34.

Another very accurate one.

I have much confidence that I will be able to finish this bag of MiniEggs.

Fortune #33.

Oui, c'est vrai.
