Feisty Seniors at Lawrence Heights Community Centre

I love to teach techniques. One of those techniques is knotting on string. My students have ranged from pre-teen to middle age. Today, I taught Jean. Jean is 83 years young and with a zest for learning the likes of which I have never seen. Jean at the age of 83 drove herself over to the Lawrence Heights Community Centre from Guildwood in Scarborough where she awaited my arrival. Classes began at 10 a.m. and Jean arrived at 9:30 a.m. That's enthusiasm! Jean tells me she drives all the way to this community centre because she loves the programs, not to mention the members. This group of Feisty Seniors dazzled me. With nifty fingers, and complete concentration they mastered the technique of knotting as if they had been doing this all of their lives. Lawrence Heights Community Centre offers seniors Games & Crafts on Tuesdays, Healthy Cooking on Wednesday and Bingo on Thursdays. The women I had the pleasure of meeting today were lively and spirited with a zest for learning. I was honoured to be be in their presence and am looking forward to seeing them again.

Time for Sharing

Because I feel blessed and I guess a little sentimental at this point in my life, sharing music that I love is my gift to you.

Please listen, reflect and think about the year to come and what you can do to make someone's life a little more joyful.

Music for the Soul

Diamond or Zirconia

Cubic zirconia (or CZ), is the cubic crystalline form of zirconium dioxide The synthesized material is hard, optically flawless and usually colorless and comes in a variety of vibrant colors.



Because of its low cost (in comparison to diamonds), durability, and close visual likeness to diamond, synthetic cubic zirconia has remained the most gemologically and economically important competitor for diamonds since 1976.



There are a few key features of cubic zirconia which distinguish it from diamond, some observable only under the microscope or loupe.

Zirconias are admired and treasured in jewellery design.
