I just wanted to take a moment to share with my wonderful readers that yours truly, MapleMouseMama, has been nominated in not one, but two categories for the 2013 Canadian Weblog Awards!!! This nomination means more to me then I can explain. It is a show of recognition for all of the hard work, time, […]
Happiest of Birthday Wishes Mickey!!
My beloved Mickey Mouse has a special birthday today. He turns 85 years young!! Can I get a whoot, whoot?! Did you know that our favorite cheese lover made his screen debut a mere 85 years ago in the iconic Steamboat Willie? I have to admit that I am more a fan of the modern […]
Two Cents Tuesday: Get Your Hands Off Me!!
Earlier this week it was reported that an elementary school in British Columbia has implemented a “no touching” policy for, get this, Kindergarten. Apparently the latest threat to society is that little Jimmy and little Johnny might hurt one another when they play Star Wars with their pretend Light Sabers. Really? The rule goes on […]
#SpiritDay Will You Wear Purple?
Did you know that today, Thursday, October 17th, 2013 is Spirit Day? I didn’t. Not until just now. That’s not a good thing considering how Social Media centric I am, or at least hope I am. On Spirit Day people across the world wear purple to show their support for gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender […]
The Suicide Disease…
I have given some thought to writing a post like this, but never really made the effort to do it. The reason? My experience with Trigeminal Neuralgia, also called TN, was one of the most difficult times in my life and not just because of the physical pain it caused. I wanted to write about […]
What does your #DisneySide look like?
Disney has debuted a new site this week called Show Your Disney Side. I think the little description they provide is spot on: “Beginning today, you’ll be hearing a lot more about the idea of showing your Disney side – the side of you that says “yes” more often, laughs louder and lives life to […]
Is it too Late to Homeschool?
The past few weeks have been as predictably busy as they should be. A new school year means not only the start of a new grade, but also the start of extra curricular activities, adjusting to new teachers and how they “do” things, sometimes doctor’s appointments for annual check-ups and even, in my case, renewing […]
Two Cents Tuesday: How Much is Too Much?
My daughter belongs to a local chapter of the Girl Guides of Canada. This is a great organization and we are lucky to have energetic and caring leaders who volunteer their time. Coming up is the Girl Guides first camp out of the season and it is a doozy. You see only […]
My Magical Moment: August 2013
This is coming a little late in the month, but I figure that is a good thing. Late means I have been busy and busy means, hopefully, only good things. While the first part of September has been flying by fortunately the summer did not. At least not from my perspective. August of 2013 brought […]
Life Lessons: Am I Qualifed to Preach, Teach or Reach?
Just a couple of weeks ago Doug and I celebrated our 15th wedding anniversary. It has been an interesting 15 years. Definitely a roller coaster at times, not knowing what the next dip or hill will bring. At others its been like a nice, soothing float on the swan boat, all calm and tranquil. Ya, […]
