Two Pals in a Pod…
Dear Sis,
It is now November and today I was thinking about how it has almost been two years since I started my blog to you. I have published 52 and I still have 21 in “draft” lol I think of stories daily and have experiences that I so want to share with you. I miss you 🙁
Karen, I started that Podcast I mentioned to you in the last blog !!! That is why I have not written to you in a couple of months – sorry – I have not had too much extra time these days but you are always in my thoughts. I am also so happy that your kids reach out to me via FaceTime every Saturday so we can try to get a visit.
I started the Podcast with my friend Jayka. We are called “Two Pals in a Pod”. I know you will remember her – she was my roommate when I worked at Jasper Park Lodge Resort. She was 19 and I was 20 years old.
I know I have mentioned the Podcast to you a few times but as I said to your kids today, I am going to ask the Nurse or someone (Lu offered) to play them for you when they visit. I am trying to get creative with being so far away. Did I tell you I miss you ?
I was out for a walk this morning and I started laughing out loud – yes I often look like a crazy lady walking down the street – I do this all the time lol I think of something that makes me laugh and I can’t hold it in.
Anyhow, I was walking today and I started thinking, if you could talk you would be saying….
“Kathy I have been listening to your stories for the last two years now I have to listen to your voice ??? It’s not always about you!!” oh growing up – that statement – how often you would say that to me?? lol
As you know I came home often to Ottawa. I always had so many stories and experiences to share. It was a tradition for years…you and I would sit in your kitchen, you drinking a rum and diet coke and I would drink my gin and tonics. We would talk, cry and always laugh. Wow, did we ever laugh xo
I still / always have so many stories to share. Now that the Podcast is up and going – our last piece is putting it on Spotify or iTunes – my Pal is over that today 🙂 – I promise to blog more regularly now.
So this blog will remain short and sweet as it is all about putting the Podcast out there….
You know what I hope for ? Maybe there is a mother/daughter/ father/friend ect out there who will play my Podcast when visiting someone with MSA. OR read my blogs. I personally and very heartfeltly know how difficult visits can be. Let’s try to have some fun 🙂
I love you sis,
Kathy xo
ps. I also put a couple of videos at the bottom – I hope they make you smile.
