Oh my goodness this is me every Monday! Only I buy the eye refreshers from amazon, im sure Reese gets designer ones. Hang in there ladies! 🤣Posted @withrepost • @reesewitherspoon Monday Lisa gets it... #mondays 🍷

One of my greatest lessons so far this year has been About learning to be more patient. More patient with others. More patient with circumstances. More patient with myself. If you slow yourself down, it’s easier to be patient. I’ve been a witness to a couple of emergencies recently and now when every day inconveniences like a long line at a bank or a traffic jam or one more day without news about a book deal comes up, I try to remember that this is not an emergency. It’s a blessing to have a bank account and a car and a book being considered by major publishers! I have always tried to think this way, but practising yoga for the last 10 weeks has improved my ability to slow down and look at life with fresh eyes. 10 weeks ago when I tried to do this dancers pose I started laughing; there is no way I could stand on 1 foot holding my back leg up by my butt for three minutes! But with many weeks of trying, and with a little self love,I was able to realize this goal. Is there something you’re waiting for? Something you feel anxious about because it’s just not happening for you? Sometimes trying something new, instead of focusing on your problems, helps you look at your circumstances in a whole new light. #authorsofinsta #authorlife #yogadanslesvignes #modoyogalove #flowyoga #amazoninfluencers #canadianpoet #canadianauthor #balance #believe #hope #inspire #trysomethingnew

Yes I do house calls! 🤣👍🏻What a pleasure to be asked to read my poems and part of my novels to a group of visiting Chinese students. It was their first night in Canada and they asked for me to visit their host’s home and do a reading! My daughter also spoke about the life of a Canadian teenager. Did you know that Chinese students go to school from 7:20 AM to 10 PM? My goodness we have it lucky here. Thanks again to my new Chinese friends for being such a captive audience. #authorsofinsta #poetrycommunity #poetryreadings #canadianpoets #canadianauthors

Sometimes a new look is exactly what the doctor ordered. Thank you Mila for keeping my natural roots and @avedacanada for your beautiful plant based product line. I love Aveda hair products so much! #carolestpierresalonetspa #authorsofinsta #brandnewchick #plantbasedcolour #avedablonde #goldenblonde #brandnewday #brandnewchick

Posted @withrepost • @cleanbeautynicole Happy Thursday! 😂🥰😘 #lifeisgood #authorsofinsta #spreadjoy #spreadlaughter #canadianauthors

You guys know I’m always transparent; I like to share my real uncensored life, however it would be gruesome to post photos of hubby’s sutured finger, or the horrorific scene I saw on the 417 on Sunday After a criminal decided to drive the wrong way on purpose, or cat barf All over our house today because our youngest cat ate a lily, which is very toxic and now we have to watch him and decide if we need to send him to an emergency vet clinic. 😢Has been a rough couple of weeks, and when I say that I realize we are blessed, living in an amazing country and generally healthy And it’s all relative. But please remember when you see me (and most people on social media) smiling in downtown Montreal after shopping and McGill U exploration trip with my daughter That there’s all kinds of crap going on as well. Life is messy. As my readers know I like to write about that mess because it’s what makes life tragic and beautiful all at once; If there were no lows we could never appreciate the highs. If we weren’t afraid about going out there in the world, which can be a scary, dangerous place at times; If we didn’t take a chance on love and open our minds to new people and places in these dangerous times would we truly be living? This is one of the themes I explore in my fifth novel, #laurenfromlastnight And I cannot wait to get it into all of your hands! Gotta go. Have to feed more charcoal to our stupid but wonderful cat. #authorlife #keepingitreal #montreal #mcgilluniversity #realshit #authorsofinsta #lovethisdress #amazonfashion #amazoninfluencer #sanfranciscostore #alfredsung #messylifehappylife
