Preparing for Travel/Vacation Announcement!
This post just keeps getting more and more timely. I am going home to my parents for 10 days and now I am also travelling for work for 5 days that I don’t have an itinerary for and I get back to Sioux Lookout at some point on Friday evening (I don’t have an itinerary…

Friday Favorites: 09/08/22
This week was a roller coaster, I was riding high Tuesday and Wednesday thinking I was done pet sitting forever, which came crashing down on Thursday when I got a message confirming that I was still good for this weekend. I didn’t know whether to laugh, scream, or cry. But it is more spending money…

What I’m Buying in September
September is going to be an expensive month for me. I have budgeted for it, and I am not concerned about it, it’s just a statement of fact. I’m going home for 10 days, going to Montreal with friends for a weekend, and will be doing a big “city stock up”, as I have taken…

What I Read in August
After an insane month of reading in July, it’s only fitting I guess that I only read one book in August. Beautiful World, Where Are You – Sally Rooney Overall, I’m still not certain what I think of Sally Rooney’s books, I have now read Normal People and this book, and I’m not sure if…

August Slipped Away
August is such a weird month, I think especially since I now live so far north and have such clear memories of how miserable I was this past winter August felt like there was so much pressure. To do things, to have fun, to go to the beach, to swim. But then it was also…

I Want to Talk About Body Image
I hope the title gives away the trigger warnings, but to be safe: TW: body image, body dysmorphia, disordered eating, eating disorders and weight/size. I have unintentionally lost weight this summer. I don’t own a scale, I don’t know what I weighed at the beginning of the summer and I don’t know what I weigh…

End of Summer Bucket List
I am so nervous for summer to end this year. I have no concrete plans to leave the north yet (as in I don’t have enough money saved up nor a new job), so I am staring down the barrel of another Northwestern Ontario winter and I am terrified. So I want to eke out…

August Favorites
Instead of doing weekly favorites I thought I would do a monthly favorite, except I haven’t done a very good job of keeping track of things so far this month so I’m not sure how well this will go. My very first favorite has to be the late-summer, late-afternoon light, as you can see in…

A Week-ish in Outfits
This week was a blur, I love long-weekends, but I’m starting to really hate short weeks. You always have to get the same amount of work done but one less day in the week to accomplish it. High: I went to trivia this week (we don’t have it every week, I wish we did), and…

Getting back into waste reduction
As per usual with my birthday, I got a little reflective last week. And I realized that I’ve really been slacking on the whole zero waste/low waste thing. I used to be very into it, kind of around the whole girl boss, peak hustle culture, doing everything to the utmost and to esthetic perfection, the…
