If you have yet to get a contactless delivery to your home amid the new normal we are now living, chances are at least one will be on the way at some point in the coming weeks and months. From groceries to goodies from amazon, I’ve got a lot of things on their way to me. But there is one delivery that I am really excited about and it’s contains items to help me look and feel my best inside and out.

A Bit of a Fitness TuneUp

So let’s be honest – I haven’t been sharing a lot of fitness updates online and here on the blog lately. I, like many of you, have found myself falling a bit behind on my promise to be more active. But, that’s okay.

After all, I am human and I can’t be in two places at once. While not here with you, I’ve been working away at a job I love and building towards my goal of children with Julio. That in and of itself is something that deserves to be celebrated! But on the path to being more active again, I thought I’d share a few tips that I’m using in a fitness tuneup of sorts with myself.

Finally, A Reason For Me To Go To Yorkville

I have officially been living in Toronto for eight years. Prior to calling myself a Torontonian, I used to visit the city as often as I could. Born in Montreal, and having grown up in Ottawa, Toronto was always the city I felt most at home in. My friends and I would drive down the 401 for any number of concerts, exploring Queen St. West in its heyday, and exploring parts of the city that embodied the vibrancy Toronto is known for. Very rarely in the thirty six years I have lived have I found a reason or had the desire to go to Yorkville. Always seemingly too good for the rest of the city, it rubbed me the wrong way. It was trying too hard. It was elitist and it wasn’t for me.

All that changed for me last year when I was introduced to UpMarket. Upon it’s return this year with UpMarket: The Floral edit, there is FINALLY a reason for someone like me to go to Yorkville to enjoy myself and feel like I belong there.

A Reason To Hope

May 24th is a day that I’ve always gotten confused with May 28th in my mind. I think it’s because my Dad’s birthday would have been on the 28th (he would have been 59 this year) but it’s around the May 2-4 weekend. Who knows – I’ll chalk it up to the fact that I am in desperate need of a vacation. It is also World Schizophrenia and Psychosis Day and it marks the 40th Anniversary of The Schizophrenia Society of Ontario (SSO).
