    My poor blog has been neglected for a few years. And, the last few years? Holy moly. How are you? If I were to summarize, do a “Reader’s Digest” version of the recent years it would look like this: 2018: Wrote short film script: The Rolling Pin 2019: Edited script and it received funding from…

    For those who read this blog, I have begun another blog dedicated to senior care, and issues that have a senior theme. There is just so much out there that wants to be addressed and stories to be shared. Today’s post brings back the reoccurring theme of the “new” Riverview Manor in Montague, PEI and…

    Last Saturday night I watched a documentary called “What About Me?“. I scanned through comedies, dramas, and documentaries to find something that would soothe my despair over losing a friend to suicide last week. Imagining the incredibly bright light of Haigan Day in her final darkness alone sent myself stumbling blindly. “What About Me?” was…

    Imagine: You’ve led a full life in a community where you paid your taxes. You’ve purchased over and over again in your community, spending your money at local businesses. You’ve had a family. Your own home. Your own house. Your own garden. A dog. Maybe a few. Some cats, despite that damn hair on the…

    Yes, it’s true. The PEI government has chosen to construct a new liquor store in the community of Montague, Prince Edward Island, and postpone, once again, their 2009, 2015, 2016 promise of a brand new Riverview Manor, residence for seniors, to (we’ll see) 2017. BUT, the new liquor store will be ready for business in…

    Today, the announcement for the new government liquor store in Montague was published by CBC in a positive light, gleefully optimistic about an increase in liquor sales next year, in their new building that will be constructed. A new building that will break ground as soon as ….. next week. Ready for an opening in…

    The Riverview Manor in Montague, Prince Edward Island. A place no-one wants to spend the last part of their life. But the decrepit nursing home building is full of the community’s elderly. The community’s loved ones. I know it well. Because of my Dad. Last week I wrote an article to light a spark of…

    Over eight thousand views. That’s how many times “Enough is Enough, Prince Edward Island” published this past week was read. Witnessing the stats of my blog post growing the past few days and seeing the unbelievable amount of shares on FaceBook, is confirming. Montague needed a match to light the smoldering embers of hope gone.…

    October 26, 2016 I’m back. I haven’t written in here for awhile. A long while. Over a year. And, it’s been quite a period of time. Starting with the death of my best friend, my Dad, May of 2015, looking after my Mom, doing my one woman show (Dusty Shoes) because I had promised my…

    I’m not a “political” person. That’s how I see myself. But, what does that actually mean? Does it mean I don’t lie, speak bafflegab, do sly underhanded things to get what I want, manipulate polls, not think about the people I live with, not care for them, not listen, take advantage of the poor (especially…
