personal finance, waste reduction, skincare, single living, and needlepoint; hopefully travel at some point in post-unprecedented times
There's this really cute TikToker and author named Eli @EliRallo and she makes these videos where she writes down a list of rules for a certain scenario. It could be rules for a specific month, a specific situation, a specific period of time. However, her rules often don't work for me because she's 24, wealthy, … Continue reading June Rules
I totally missed this post in April, I'm not sure what happened, but it must have been one of the many posts I missed during that month when I just got overwhelmed with work and life and sad that it was still winter. But we're back, baby. This is one of my worst performing posts, … Continue reading May State of The Union
Oh May, I am so torn on how to plan this. There are so many things that I would like to purchase before my trip, for the upcoming weddings, for my spring wardrobe that I cannot figure out how to plan it out and so we will be working this out together throughout this post. … Continue reading What I’m Buying in May
I almost didn't write this post this month because I did not take a lot of pictures in March, March was kind of a boring month. I did not do much in March, despite going to Thunder Bay twice. It was all business basically. I finished a puzzle that I bought when my back was … Continue reading March in Review
I hate February, I think it is officially my least favorite month. It is so dark and so cold and thank god it is short in days because it is long in feeling. I think it also especially sucked because I slipped and fell walking to my car from the office and broke my tailbone … Continue reading February in Review
We're only a few days into February, but it has this energy, there is a stress, an anxiety, a rushed feeling to the energy this month. February is such a short month, but it feels like time is moving so much faster than normal this year. Maybe it's age. Maybe it's just that things are … Continue reading February State of the Union
January has been such a great month, 2023 seriously has a lot to live up to. It was so fun, I spent so much time with people I love, and got to do so many things and it was just a great time. I started off the New Year with a hot mat Pilates class … Continue reading January in Review
Okay, that's a bit dramatic, but this is the last monthly empties post. I do have to say that it is already feeling very freeing to not have to keep my empty containers. I just clean them out and dispose of them according to my municipality's recycling instructions. It feels weird that it feels so … Continue reading December Empties: The End
This may have been my busiest December ever. In university I always assumed that after uni December would be a nice relaxing month, because you wouldn't have exams anymore that you needed to be studying for on top of Christmas prep. That was an incorrect assumption. I was home for 6 days this month between … Continue reading December in Review
It is so interesting to make this post this month, because despite it being December, famously one of the spendiest months of the year. I'm not planning on buying that much? Of course, I didn't put the Christmas presents I'm buying in the collage (I know my sister sometimes reads this, I don't think anyone … Continue reading What I’m Buying in December
