Family Members on Vacation. Top Story - October 2020.
Vacation is something we dream about all year. The beach, slow mornings, new memories and experiences, sunshine…and family. Have you ever realized how each family member has their own agenda for vacation? Those different agendas often clash and when we’re not in the heat of the moment, it’s pretty funny to look back and reflect on. That’s why I wrote this sketch. I was laughing while writing this, because it reminded me my family and myself so much! I’m sure you can relate to one of these personalities (if not all of them), and can name which family member belongs in which category.

Sweetheart Rock
You can’t tell, by looking at the photo, but let’s just say, I am glad my iPhone was waterproof. This rock is a symbol of my first Thanksgiving, with my daughter and parents. While trying to figure out what to do first on our visit. We chose going crabbing. My daughter said, “yes, I love crab!”My dad was telling us, he knew a great spot off a peir in Fontana, California.

post lockdown escape
the lockdown has cost me 3 concerts and meant my wedding and subsequent honey moon is delayed a year. Also it means I will not be able to visit my son for his 30th birthday and he wont be able to see mine for my 50th. He lives 50 miles from me and due to his autism and other needs he lives in a supported living care home. He seems to be coping with the lock down so far as he hasn't been in contact to complain.

Strollers Should be Banned on Public Transportation During Peak Hours
One of my pet peeves is strollers on public transportation. If it were up to me, I would ban them. While I understand that parents and their children need to get around, during peak hours strollers should not be allowed on a train, bus or streetcar.

Leaving
Being able to leave for a year seemed crazy to many people around us. First of all because of the children's school. They will do their 4th, secondary 1 and 3 on the road. what better, in my opinion, to learn without compromises and scheduling conflicts!
