What I’m Buying in March
This month is feeling a bit less predictable than February did. I’m expecting a very large paycheque so I might have a bit more flexibility to be able to do some of my other goals that require spending money. But I’m not sure, I need to see how much it will be before I can…

Saturday Scroll 03/05/2022
I have joined the wordle crew. I am so exhausted. I’m pet sitting this weekend, but I fully plan on spending most of the weekend napping with the pup when he doesn’t need walks or to go outside. I really wish I was in my own home, because I never sleep as well when I’m…

The Challenge of Adding a Habit
This is going to sound very naval-gazing and artificially deep for a moment, but bear with me. I have been trying to add in a week in outfits post, as you’ve seen here in January and the beginning of February, but remembering to take the Outfit of the Day, the OOTD, the ooh-tah-dah, is proving…

Work-Life Balance is a Spectrum
Over the past two weeks I have been responding to a COVID-19 outbreak, affecting about 25% of the population of the community with even more in isolation, in one of the northern First Nations communities my work serves.

Spring Wardrobe Wants
I may be far too early on this for where I live, and how short the transitional seasons seem to be where I live, but the days are getting longer every day, the sun actually feels warm on your skin, and I am in need of hope that the days of cute clothes are coming.…

Saturday Scroll: 02/19/22
I am so looking forward to sleeping and not wearing masks for a couple days. I am going to park myself in that corner of the couch and only get up to flip laundry. My face still feels like there is an N95 pushing into the bridge of my nose and my ears have dents…

What I’m Buying in February
This is going to be a new series, a part of the financial accountability I’m striving for. But I don’t feel like that quite sums it up, it’s about being thoughtful about how I spend my money, what I bring into my house, what I put onto and into my body and just generally overall…

A Week in Outfits
I think this week is like a D on the effort scale, like steps were taken to try, but not as much as I would like. I also ran out of base makeup and it’s hard to want to get ready when the part of your routine that makes you look better is gone. I…
