Véronique Lemieux

My name is Véronique I’m the super average working mom! The different parts of my life tighten up my schedule like coffee for an espresso: professional, couple, family, friends and of course training. That last one helps me keep all the other sanely together. If I don’t move I implode.

Aug 11 Mont-Saint-Hilaire

Un de mes parcs favoris est tout simplement celui que je vois de mon salon… C’est le Mont-Saint-Hilaire!

J’habite à St-Hilaire depuis une douzaine d’années et ce fut une des raisons principales du choix de cette ville, soit la montagne à proximité, qui créé un effet enchanteur dans toute la ville. > MORE

Jun 22 Treetop Trekking

One of the things I enjoy doing as a mom, when I can, is volunteering at their school activities. My youngest had this great activity planned at school, at Arbraska for a treetop trekking, and I thought  it was a superbe idea that perfectly suited 50 feverish/ jumping/ screaming 8 years old kids. A challenge I was in! > MORE

Jun 18 Girls night out in May

Last May 21 was Girls Night Out with my girlfriends. We go out once in a while, only girls (no husbands and no kids), and we do something special, always different, that one of the group organise for the others. It was Viki’s turn to be leading the evening on such a beautiful Friday with extra sun and extra summer feeling. Viki asked us to meet her at > MORE
