In spite of all the medical appointments, I have also managed to have a social life over the last week!
Last Thursday I attended Opera Atelier’s Season Closing Party. I decided to resign from the Board for the time being, so the party was a nice opportunity to socialize with some of my fellow Board Members. It was a lovely event at a historic Toronto home located at 2 Wellesley Place, a location which has been used for filming numerous movies and was also rented by the Rolling Stones for a period of time. Full disclosure, the gates in the photo are not from this home!

On the following evening, along with my “sister” Andrea, I attended an event of a much larger scale… the U2 concert at the Rogers Centre! It was phenomenal. When Bono started to sing, I experienced an overwhelming moment with the realization that I was actually seeing U2 live in concert. It was truly a “Whoa!” moment. To cap it off, the Masters of the Roof decided to open the Dome for the performance, so we had a fabulous view of the CN Tower from our seats. What a great backdrop for the show!
And, the fun doesn’t stop here… (it really was quite a busy few days leading up to my tour of the University Health Network this week!)
On Saturday I had yet another great evening at The Arkells concert which took place at the Amphitheatre. It was another beautiful night and our crew had a blast. And apparently the folks at the River Bar knew I was going to be there…
So despite the not so fun activities I’m experiencing these days, I am also enjoying life at the same time!
