THE FIRST DAY OF MAY

THE FIRST DAY OF MAY

Loving my new HTC One. I’ve got a campaign launching with them any day now. As soon as the link is live I’ll share with you. This phone was MADE for someone like me. I had training on it yesterday at lunch. There are sharing and social components to every aspect of it. I took a bunch of photos & used Zoe, the photo assistant on my way to work today and it made this video from all the content. I didn’t edit the video, add effects, or music, it was ALL DONE BY THE PHONE. THE FUTURE IS NOW.

I am so in love with this weather. Woke up with a smile and biked to work early. Life is good. This is my favourite month, my birthday is on May 8th. 🙂

Hope you have an awesome day.

Where do we find the will and the courage to continue?

This is one of my fav songs on one of my fav all time albums. This weekend I sat alone, late and at the cottage kitchen table writing, finally working on that book I’m been talking about, and finally doing some web stuff I’ve been avoiding. It wasn’t until I slowed down, I realized how fast I was going. I’ve always liked MIA but “Live fast, Die Young” isn’t in my creative “take over the world” plan.  If I’m ever having a bad day, I go put on Lisa Loeb – Tails or White Stripes – Elephant. I love those albums.

This is Dad and I doing the CN Tower Eggewalk about a year ago, almost to the day. It was so awesome.

This Makes Me Happy

When problems overwhelm, us and sadness smothers us, where do we find the will and the courage to continue? Well, the answer may come in the caring voice of a friend, a chance encounter with a book, or from a personal faith. For Janet help came from her faith, but it also from a squirrel. Shortly after her divorce, Janet lost her father, then she lost her job. She had mounting money problems. But Janet not only survived, she worked her way out of despondency and now she says, life is good again. How could this happen? She told me that late one Autumn day when she was at her lowest she watched a squirrel storing up nuts for the winter, one at a time he would take them to the nest. And she thought, if that squirrel can take care of himself with the harsh winter coming along, then so can I. Once I broke my problems into small pieces I was able to carry them, just like those acorns, one at a time. – White Stripes, Little Acorns

Been there like Janet, and I worked my way out. You can work yourself out too. Your life if your movie and you are the director, and you choose what roles you play and who stars in it with you.

All the worlds a stage, babe.  Take centre.

Wore some bright pants from Gap today. Brought the sunshine everywhere I went. New Killigrew cotton mixed with poka dots. Ted Baker London scarf, Tom’s, and a smile.

Here’s to a great week.

It’s Everyday

It’s Everyday

Wake up. Get dressed. Go to work. Internet. Make things. Build things. Do stuff. Lunch. Meeting. Work more. Do more. Build more. Write. Read. Event. Back stage. Red carpet. Driver. Dream. Deep breath. Hair done. New clothes. Busy week. Fashion Show. Talk. Watch. Talk. Tweet. Smile. Photo. Write. Sleep.

Oh, just floating on the dock reading about advertising and ideas in the sun.

There is nowhere else I would rather be right now. Waves crash on the wood every time a boat crosses the lake.

When I close my eyes, it’s like I could lay here forever.

Planning to BBQ some steaks for dinner and hopefully watch sunset by the fire. Maybe a canoe ride and Sean can do most the paddling! (You will see this before him so haha!)

This sun is so nice. Wear sunscreen!

Green Eyes, Snoop Dogg, Flowers! Spring?

Green Eyes, Snoop Dogg, Flowers! Spring?

SPRING? WHERE ARE YOU! We had the cottage open this time last year and I’m pretty sure I had a tan. I’ve just about had enough, who do we call to make something happen about this weather? I hate to complain about it but that’s what we do in Canada, ok, say sorry heaps and talk about the weather. Ha!

Despite it being kinda meh the sun sis out and I took a stroll through the park. I love that the tennis court in Trinity Bellwoods has turned into some kind of public (and very random) art gallery space. Thought this iceberg and boat was really neat. Makes me think of creative people, you see one thing on the surface but below that is a wild undersea upside down mountain of creativity.

I am really into this car. I would like to drive around in it and listen to Snoop Dogg.

You know what I’m sayin? Hit play and you’ll know.

Wearing Green contacts from Air Optix Colors. They look really bright in the sunshine. It’s seriously been so fun trying out all these different colours the last few months. Check out all the other colours I’ve tried out here.

You can get Air Optix Colors from your eye doctor and as a new contacts wearer, I like that they are comfortable and allow my eyes to breathe. I reckon if you are someone who wears contact all the time this would be the most fun cause you can switch ’em up each month. For more info visit airoptixcolors.ca.

These are for you. You deserve them!

Sister selfie! Follow Jenie on IG at @jeniestewart.

Hope you are having a great day and enjoy the flowers. I’m sending sunshine your way since ol’ Mother Nature is still holding out on us.

* Disclosure: This post is sponsored by Alcon + Air Optix Colors. TBH these contacts are awesome and I’ve had a blast changing my eye colour around. Thanks for supporting me through reading about my personal experiences and life adventures This is the best job I’ve ever had!
