July Empties
This was a big month for using stuff up. Some of it makes sense, a few things I have been using since last November and some were purchases I had to make because I haven’t yet got used to having to be prepared and planning ahead to avoid using plastic/packaged products. This is a great…

Mid-Week Procrastination: the return of movies, Tennessee’s Queen, and Snoop
It was a long weekend in Canada this week, so Tuesday was the first day of our week, but I really felt like it punched me in the gut, so it is the perfect time for this post. A photo-journal of WASP Rot. The best and most good Tennessean, Dolly Parton’s favourite makeup looks. And…

What I Read in July
July was one of the reading months where I tried to make myself read some books that I had purchased, somewhat on a whim, simply out of joy of being in a bookstore and most of them were mediocre at best. I also kind of think that I was trying to make myself read and…

Obsessions: July 31: Sneakers and Black Widow
Instagram Obsession: Olivia Muenter I found Olivia through her appearance on the Bad on Paper Podcast, I missed her fall candle review (she and her then-fiancé got drunk and reviewed ALL the Bath and Body Works fall candles). She’s super funny, fun, and shares tips about freelancing, writing, and productivity. I also love that she…

Being Prepared for a Breakdown
I feel like I should immediately clarify that this is an automobile break down and not a mental health break down. When I first started working on this post I didn’t even think about how this title could be interpreted in multiple ways. If you are looking for support for a mental health break down…

(Semi) Long Weekend in Thunder Bay, Ontario
So this little trip didn’t end exactly the way I planned (more details in tomorrow’s post!) but I had a great time, and I really loved getting into the city for a bit. I have 100% concluded that I am better in a city. I don’t necessarily think that Thunder Bay is my home, but…

Mid-Week Procrastination
I’m having another week where I am super exhausted and am struggling to get out of bed at a decent time each morning. If you read my birthday reflections post, I realized that the only goal I set last year that I didn’t met were my “physical” or health ones. So I’ve made a plan…

Late Summer Needlepoint
Late summer is in my opinion, second only to the holidays for best season to needlepoint. It is so hot, and you have done most of your summer things and just want to sit by the water or in the air conditioning and stitch. Some of these are canvases I have in my stash, I…

Obsessions: July 24
I’m down in Thunder Bay for the weekend and it’s fully hitting me how much I miss city life. Walking every where, working in coffee shops, getting take out and walking down to the water to eat, BOOKSTORES, actually being able to get everything on your shopping list. I’m not hating living in Sioux Lookout,…

Mid-Week Procrastination
I pushed this to Thursday for my birthday yesterday, I hope you don’t mind. I’m really excited for this weekend, we are finally allowed to go to Thunder Bay without self-isolating on return (per work, not the government) and I am going to go to Chapters! and Michaels! and a good Farmer’s Market! and eat…
