Welcome to another edition of our weekly update, where we share the highlights of our adventures and experiences from the past week.
Last Friday kicked off with Jean-Luc attending Mayfest, and returned home with our friend Renee, who spent the night with us. Saturday was filled with more fun as we brought Renee along to Mayfest at Exhibition Place and embarked on a mission to purchase a new laptop. As you may recall, Nick's laptop crashed during our show last Thursday, prompting the urgent need for a replacement. Unfortunately, the Best Buy we visited didn't offer much help, so we turned to Amazon for our purchase. On Sunday, Tia and her son Henry joined us for a delightful dinner and a game of Triominos.
As for the rest of the week, it was a typical workweek for us. Jean-Luc began his second week back at work after his tonsillectomy leave, and we're pleased to report that he's progressing well, with each week bringing noticeable improvement in his eating abilities.
Our week was also marked by laptop issues during our step classes. Initially, we encountered speed issues with the laptops affecting video quality, followed by audio problems with the replacements ordered from Best Buy's website. After troubleshooting, we believe we've resolved the issues and are eager to resume our Step classes next week! Just a friendly reminder that Step classes are canceled on Monday, May 20th, in observance of Victoria Day in Canada (Memorial Day in the US). We hope you all enjoy a fantastic long weekend, and we look forward to seeing you tonight (Sunday, May 19th) at 7 PM ET for our Sunday Chat!

🌟 Embracing Pause-tivity: A Journey to Positive Thinking 🌟
Positivity isn't just about plastering on a smile and pretending everything is perfect; it's about cultivating a mindset that sees the silver lining, even in the stormiest of clouds. Picture a shiny red corvette hurtling towards you at top speed - your natural instinct screams 'move!' Yet, in life's most trying moments, we have the power to hit the pause button, acknowledge our fears, and consciously pivot towards positivity. It's about embracing a state of "pause-tivity" where we pause to reflect, acknowledge our emotions, and choose optimism as our guiding light. By nurturing an optimistic outlook, even amidst adversity, we not only uplift our spirits but also train our minds to seek out the beauty and potential in every situation. So let's embark on this journey of positive thinking together, embracing the power of pause-tivity to illuminate our path towards a brighter, more fulfilling life. Join us as we delve into the transformative powers of mindfulness, optimism, and the unwavering belief in the inherent goodness of life. Together, let's hashtag our way to a brighter tomorrow: #PauseTivity #PositiveThinking #Mindfulness #Optimism 🌟
