Today is December 17th, it's the 40th Anniversary of my Skating Accident. The day my precious skating was taken away from me. I was 18. I should have won Canadians that year. I was at the very top of my game. I was both incredibly artistic as well as technically brilliant. Skating was my favourite thing in the whole world, I lived it, I breathed it, I lived for skating.

Tonight I thought I'd make an early supper, I had made a beautiful paelle of sorghum grains, with veggies & beans, a salmon pattie that was calling my name, a few fresh fruits in the fridge, salad and a nice bottle of red wine. I poured myself a glass of red wine, and savoured my supper, and then wondering if I'd actually made great choices health wise.
