SO HAPPY THAT I HAVE BEEN ABLE TO CONTINUE WORKING ALTHOUGH I HAVE HAD TO UNDERGO FOOT/ANKLE SURGERY. BEING CREATIVE KEEPS ME GOING AND MAKES ME SO HAPPY. HERE ARE 2 PAINTINGS I RECENTLY COMPLETED FOR DIFFERENT FOLKS WHO REQUESTED THEM.
I’M ALSO ILLUSTRATING ANOTHER CHILDREN’S BOOK . SO LIFE IS GOOD , I AM HEALING , AND ALL IS WELL .
IT WAS A BEAUTIFUL DAY TO GATHER AS FRIENDS TO CELEBRATE THE VOLUNTEERS WHO GIVE OF THEIR TIME TO THE MARIAN CENTRE . MADONNA HOUSE WANTED TO SAY THANK YOU TO THEIR FRIENDS AND HELD A WONDERFUL INDOOR PICNIC COMPLETE WITH A MEMORIES VIDEO AND ENTERTAINMENT.
TERRY AND I WERE HONOURED TO BE ASKED TO SING.
ONE OF THE DIRECTORS, STEVE, ASKED FOR A MOMENT ON THE MIC TO SAY HIS FAREWELL TO THE LARGE CROWD AS HE IS HEADING TO COMBERMERE, ONTARIO TO BEGIN A NEW CHAPTER IN HIS LIFE IN HIS MADONNA HOUSE MINISTRY.
GLAD I KNOW THESE WONDERFUL , GIVING FOLKS AND GLAD TO BE A PART OF IT.
IT’S BEEN A LONG TIME . BUT ALBERT FELICITAS CERTAINLY HAS A BEAUTIFUL TOUCH ON THE PIANO AND I AM THE LUCKY ONE TO RECEIVE HIS TALENTS AGAIN ON MY UPCOMING ALBUM. WE HAD A BLAST AT BITTERNORTH STUDIOS WITH MY DAUGHTER, THE SOUND ENGINEER, EMILY . SHE IS SUCH A PRO AND I AM GETTING EXCITED TO SHARE THIS WITH YOU !
THE RAIN HELD OFF FOR OUR CONCERT YESTERDAY AND WE WERE SO PLEASED WITH THE VENUE AND THE EXCELLENT SOUND. GLAD WE WERE ASKED TO PARTICIPATE ….IT WAS A BLAST !
HAVIN’ A BLAST REHEARSING OUR SPIRITLINE TUNES FOR JULY 3RD/18. WE CHECKED OUT THE GROUNDS AT THE WORKS AND I LIKE THE STAGE SET UP EVEN BETTER THAN CHURCHILL SQUARE. 
WHAT A WONDERFUL DAY FOR A PICNIC! GLAD SPIRITLINE WAS ASKED TO PLAY FOR THE FOLKS WHILE THEY ENJOYED LUNCH.
I AM SO HAPPY WITH THE MANY EXCELLENT INSTRUMENTALISTS THAT I AM SURROUNDING MYSELF WITH FOR THIS 3RD C.D. . THEY SOUND GREAT ! LITTLE BY LITTLE I AM MAKING PROGRESS IN BETWEEN CONCERTS, TRAVELING AND PAINTING, ETC. LIFE IS GOOD .
I HAD THE HONOUR RECENTLY OF WORKING WITH A MAN I ADMIRE SO MUCH : MY HUSBAND ! TERRY DID A GREAT JOB ON THE BASS AND I AM THANKFUL THAT HE WAS ABLE TO TAKE THE TIME TO HELP ME OUT.
WE ARE ALSO GOING TO BE PLAYING AT ” THE WORKS ” SOON . #THEWORKSFEST
I’M REALLY LOOKING FORWARD TO PERFORMING AT THE WORKS THIS YEAR. I HOPE YOU CAN JOIN US ON JULY 3RD AT 3:45 .
I WILL BE SINGING MY ORIGINALS FROM MY FIRST 2 ALBUMS AS WELL AS A COUPLE OF NEW SONGS FROM THE ALBUM I AM CURRENTLY RECORDING. I AM JOINED BY MY BELOVED BASS PLAYER, TERRY, AND HE TOO WILL BE SINGING HIS OWN ORIGINALS …A MIXTURE OF FOLK AND INSPIRATIONAL WITH THE 2 OF US THAT DAY.

May 11th , 2018 !I AM VERY THRILLED TO ANNOUNCE THAT WOMEN OF SUBSTANCE RADIO HAS CHOSEN ANOTHER ONE OF MY SONGS …THIS TIME FOR THEIR ” CELEBRATING MOTHERHOOD SERIES ” .
HERE IS WHAT THEY HAD TO SAY :
THIS SONG IS ABOUT A WOMAN WHO HAS A DREAM THAT SHE COMES BEFORE GOD AND HE ASKS HER WHAT SHE HAS DONE WITH THE TALENTS HE GAVE HER.
SHE GOES ON TO TELL GOD THAT ALTHOUGH SHE MIGHT NOT HAVE DONE AMAZING THINGS BY SOME PEOPLE’S STANDARDS …SHE IS VERY PROUD OF RAISING HER BEAUTIFUL FAMILY AND SHE SPEAKS OF OTHER SIMPLE JOYS IN HER LIFE.
IN OTHER NEWS, WE HAD THE HONOUR RECENTLY OF HOSTING BART MILLARD ( OF THE BAND, MERCY ME , AND REPRESENTING TRINITY WESTERN U.) IN OUR HOME. HE TOLD US HIS PERSONAL STORY OF WHERE THE SONG ” I CAN ONLY IMAGINE ” CAME FROM AND WE WERE VERY MOVED BY IT.
TONIGHT , A FEW MONTHS LATER AND VISITING VANCOUVER WE WENT AS GUESTS TO THE MOVIE ABOUT HIS STORY AND IT WAS EXCELLENT AND I CAN HIGHLY RECOMMEND IT !
