West End Girl

And now time for some health catch up...

This has been a long time in the making. It's kinda complicated and I've mainly written it for my own personal documentation, for anyone who may want to know more about my throat issues, or anyone who may have been struggling with similar issues. There's not a ton of info about this online, so hopefully this will help clear a few things up.

Goodness, I'm so behind on updates about crafty projects and health stuff that I hardly know where to start! But I'm going to get this one up because it's short and sweet!

I don't know how I'd missed this, but Dr. Brian Goldman of CBC's White Coat Black Art did a TEDx talk last year, and it's wonderful. It's called: "Doctors make mistakes, can we talk about that?" (The video is at the bottom of this post if you'd like to watch it in its entirety.)

No, no, my site didn't get hijacked. This is really a post about dental care. More specifically gum care. I've been meaning to write this post for ages, to tell you all about another one of my little TMI secrets... I have tricky gums!

Before we get to the photos, for those who asked, I've digitized Chronically Yours and have it up for sale online! More details here... it's B+W with a bit of colour and since it's a digital copy, there's no shipping!

I went for a little solo photowalk the other day, in some strange yellow sunset light... As most of you know I'm no longer really a West End girl, so these shots are around East Van. Hope you like em!

Ok, so when I said in my last post that the Firestarter Sessions led me to a health related epiphany, here it is. There is a section on "ease" in the book, that talks about doing what's "easy". We talked about this at the group meetup a couple months ago, and I still didn't get it. I just couldn't wrap my brain around the idea of doing what's easy. Because NOTHING felt easy.

Here's the short video about ease to give you the gist of what the book section talks about.
