Money, Money, Money: 1
I really want to get my finances in order. I’m tired of living paycheque to paycheque and have half my money go to paying off loans or credit cards every month. I want to buy furniture and travel and have savings so that I can do those things in the future. But I also get…

Obsessions: April 10
I can’t remember if I said it on here last week, but I was starting to feel a little useless at work, like I wasn’t doing enough or that I had gotten through the intro/transition work a bit too quickly and that they didn’t have anything for me to do. However, this week I am…

A Real Adult Apartment
I got really lucky with my apartment up here. There is a huge housing shortage (rich developers, hi if you’re reading this, there is a huge housing market up here). There are a ton of jobs here, it is kind of the “last town” before the real north and this is where people come to…

Mid-Week Procrastination: Travel bitterness, being “nice”, NFTs, and hiking
Happy Wednesday! I hope you are having a good week so far and that it’s not one of those short weeks that feels like an extra long week for you. And if you are reading this from outside Canada or because it’s not actually a stat holiday on Monday and you had to work Monday,…

March Empties
This series is to help keep me accountable in my journey to reduce my single-use plastic consumption and Project Pan progress. This empties post is a little different. I don’t have a nice big class photo of everything this month because I couldn’t bring myself to pack up and haul what is basically garbage across…

Sunset Country Hikes I want to do

The sunsets here are truly stunning every single night so it makes so much sense. Note: the blog post’s featured image is actually from the Eagle’s Nest Trail in Calabogie, Ontario. I…

Obsessions: April 3, 2021
This week I am really starting to feel settled. AND I won a gift card to my local grocery store by completing a survey for the nutrition department at work, I never win anything so I am pumped! It’s been really nice to feel more settled and have a bit more of a routine. I…

What I read in March
I hadn’t thought that I had read that much in March, what with the new job and the big move and all. But I read 4 books! Only three are pictured in the stack because one was my parents and I obviously didn’t want to take it with me. That’s also why Louise Penny is…

Mid-Week Procrastination
To be honest it is a lot harder to get material for these posts now and I need it even more. It’s actually such a break to make this. I’m all about shopping small, so I love that The Sorry Girls made this video. I am definitely going to get a planter/basket from Viridi. Since…

March in Review
This was a big month! I made posting here a priority, got a new job, moved across the province, quarantined and then got out of quarantine (getting out of quarantine is one of the best moments). I baked this pretty cake. I’m really wanting to master some of my family’s traditional recipes. I don’t know…
