Going with the FLOW!

"Go with the FLOW." 
-Proverb


"Of all the five vital principles, LOVE is the foremost. It is still love that FLOWS as the under current for the other four values. How does it FLOW this way?" 
-Sir Sathya Sai Baba


"A laugh, to be joyous must flow from a joyous heart, for without kindness, there can be no joy." 
-Thomas Carlyle





Mariah and Jana joined me for the
FAMILY DAY BODY FLOW
class at GOODLIFE GYM
yesterday.


Mariah looking happy just before the
FLOW class yesterday! 


Mariah and Beau here for supper on Sunday night.
A little sisterly loving was all part
of the FLOW of the evening! 


Mariah spinning Beau around on the chair...
check out the FLOW to her hair in the breeze! 


ELLEN had these TuTu cuties on once again yesterday...
They are becoming part of the regular FLOW of her show! 


ELLEN shared another cute pic of the
TWO ENGLISH cuties, SOPHIA GRACE and ROSIE,
 on the red Carpet at the Grammies...
Ellen seems to just love these two...
as do I!
 


For those of you who missed my Valentine's day blog,
Here is the picture we received from my son COLIN
that day with his girlfriend, CARO.
These two seem so happy together in Montreal.
We also chatted with him on the phone last week, too!


This 42" by 33" framed masterpiece of Bobby Orr's
signed Boston jersey along with photo of his famous
1970 winning goal at the Stanley Cup...
was a prize Brian got for a contest at his dealership.
He is pretty proud of this and is planning
 to send it to Colin who will also love it!


Today's blog is all about
going with the FLOW!

Normally at this time on a tuesday
I would be going to a FLOW class
at the gym, but this week my
gym plans are on the back burner,
as I am babysitting all week.

Yesterday was FAMILY DAY
so it was a holiday, and Jana's store was closed. So she and Mariah joined me for a specially designed BODY FLOW class
for families at GOODLIFE GYM.
I felt so honored to be doing a class
with my two girlies. When they played my favorite ANGEL song for the cool down,
I even felt my mom's presence
with us there, too...
making it a 4 generation class for us!!!

Just on Saturday night I had a
very real DREAM with my mom in it.
It felt great to hang out with her even
if it was only a DREAM.

Often when I'm here at the computer
doing my blog, I hear the same tune
from a bird outside my window, too.
I believe that is mom and or dad
singing to me!

I enjoyed a Starbucks coffee visit
with my cousin Gwen on Sunday,
followed by a yummy supper here.
My brother Brian and Jana, Nels and
their kids joined us for that.
I'm so lucky my hubby is such a
good cook and enjoys doing that as well!

A couple of weeks ago I visited
a skin specialist and am now being
treated for a suspicious mark on my nose.
The specialist said it looked as though
it could be "PRE- CANCEROUS"...
so I now have cream to apply twice
a day to that. She also told me it
 would form an ugly scab...
(which it now has)...
so I will just go with the flow on that!
It looks unsightly, but it is a sign
that it will get better... so all is good!

Yesterday I found that my email account
had been hacked into... and some weird
and strange emails were FLOWING through. Today the problem continues... hmmmm...
this is not only annoying, it is frustrating.
I want to apologize if it has caused
anyone's email accounts any
inconveniences... just do not open any suspicious mail from me!!!

For today Jana is taking Mariah to work
with her, but will be dropping off Beau
very soon. We sent Shuffle to
doggie daycare for the day
for her to have a big play
with her doggie friends!

I am quite sure my day will have
a real FLOW to it chasing after Beau...
and I will capture many of those pictures
on my camera. I am guessing I may
not get another blog up
until the weekend now...
but will have plenty of fun stuff
to share for my next one
when ever I get around to it.

I hope everyone's spring break
FLOWS along well for them...
and on that note...

This week I'm off my schedule,
but I'll go with the FLOW.
I'm babysitting grandkids...
so much fun, I know!
It's sometimes very tiring,
and my energy runs out,
But I will make the best of it,
and still have fun no doubt.

  1. I love the 'flow quotes' how ingenious of you! As always your photos are lovely. Your grandchildren are adorable as always. I love how Mariah looks at Beau...you can see how much he loves her also, it's super to see them share love of each other. You have a wonderful family Diane, you are one lucky GrammieD and mom for sure!
    Your hubby is very lucky to have won such a great piece of NHL history, Bobby Orr was one of my Mom's favorite player (along with many others over the years)
    Thank you for always sharing such well written (and loved filled) blogs with your readers Diane!
