What I’m Buying in December
December is going to be quite a boring and practical month, except for Christmas presents, but everything I am buying for myself is going to be replacements or services. One. Plane tickets home for the holidays. Two. Christmas presents, I honestly have no clue what I am going to buy for most people. Three. Tights.…

What I Read in November
I read two whole books in November, which I maybe should have read more given I was going for a No-Spend November, but I didn’t. I did read a whole book in one evening, which was lovely. A Discovery of Witches by Deborah Harkness I read this book because I watched the television series last…

November in Review
I spent a lot of time at home with this man this month. I mean, look at him. The one thing about later mornings in the winter is that I usually miss this light in the summer because it happens so early in the morning. I have once again conquered my fears of cutting into…

What I’m Buying in November
Short form: not much. This is a very boring, very practical monthly shopping list. And that’s the shopping list for the month. There is no fun spending this month, I need a hard reset on spending after the past five months. You can read about how I am doing a No-Spend November in this post.…

Financial Fitness Check-In: October 2023
October was baaaaad. I knew it was going to be an expensive month. I spent a full week down in Guelph at an AirBnB (it was paid for in September), and I ate out a lot basically the entire week, got some beauty appointments done, and bought some things I wasn’t planning on buying. Let’s…

What I’m Buying in October
One. Vintage White Beaded Clutch. This is what mine looks like, but I bought mine at the Aberfoyle Antique Market so there isn’t a link to it and this one is beautiful too. Two. Leather Mini Skirt. Again, I bought mine on Poshmark, but this is similar enough, this is for my Halloween costume, but…

Financial Fitness Check-In: September 2023
This is the second last month of the Year of Weddings and I CANNOT wait to be having a normal budget month. It’s only going to be November because in December I will be travelling home for the holidays, and then in January be coming back up north. So we have November and then February…

What I Read in September
September was booked and busy. But I did still get a couple books read! And now that I’m looking at them again, they are pretty thick, which is satisfying! The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes by Suzanne Collins I initially had no interest in reading this book. I do occasionally re-read The Hunger Games trilogy,…

What a wild month, OMG. I feel like literally everything that could have possibly happened in a month, happened this month. Big work stuff, grown girl problems, my little sister getting married, and seeing people in person that I normally only see on a screen. I have also been all over the place. I started…

What I’m Buying in September
This month is a small round-up, however, not inexpensive. I haven’t 100% figured out if I am going to get all of the dress, jacket, and boots; I still have some birthday money burning a hole in my pocket (actually my kitchen cupboard lol, I should probably move it now). So I am considering putting…
