New Site

Hi everyone, I have decided to give my own site a shot.. I have had the domain for years now but didn’t bother to get it up and running.. so I have moved my blog to: http://inspiredmind.ca/wp/ The focus of my blog has shifted a bit.. less about the journey from my surgery and more about my life currently. Additionally, I will be posting the occasional product/restaurant/book review as well. Eventually, as I have time and ambition, I will also be building and developing my main website to hopefully include all of my poetry and art projects… hopefully it all lives up to the name of my domain Hope you follow me over to my site! If you have any questions/issues, email me! Pia
