Happy Friday everyone. And what a glorious week it has been — a few things to share.
Firstly, tonight is the book launch for Fran Kimmel’s book — Cattail Lane. That’s at 7 p.m. in the White Gallery below Sunworks proper. There will be wine and snacks. Come down and enjoy the celebration. Pick up a couple of Fran’s books. Get them signed. Enjoy some time with the author.
Fran Kimmel is an award-winning author of numerous short stories, plays for both theater and radio, and the novels No Good Asking and The Shore Girl. Born and raised in Calgary, Fran now lives in Lacombe, Alberta, and can be reached at frankimmel.com.

Mother’s Day is two days away.
This weekend is the perfect time to pick up a nice gift for mom or the other special women in your life. Whether it’s your mom, wife, sister, or friend, show them you care. Do something lovely to help them feel appreciated and more loved on this important day.
We’ve received several orders this week. Including new Moonglow Orion Jewellery, Socks, Books, Mother’s Day Cards, and clocks. Today we’re expecting a few more things, in fact one box just rolled through the door. Always exciting.
Moonglow is charming. Here’s how it works. We have a book that you can look up an important date in, like your mom’s birthday, a anniversary… The book tells you the phase the moon was at during the time. The jewellery depicts your moon phase which gathers light during the day and glows at night. It’s such a beautiful gift. We have two collections, the black Orion series, and the Silver series. Prices range from $59 to $89.
Upcoming: An avid reader event
Book Launch: Saturday June 14th — Blaine Newton
Book your calendar for the launch of Blaine’s first book of short stories. Rag Pickers.
And a final word.
In life, remember that it’s how you respond in relationship with others that creates meaning in the present. Take the opportunity to create some magic moment with those in your life. Talk about things you’re curious about. Go places that change who you are for the better. Do things that bring you joy and help you grow. Surround yourself with beauty. Think great thoughts.
As Always, Paul, Janet, Loraine, Michelle, Blaine, and Lea.
