personal finance, waste reduction, skincare, single living, and needlepoint; hopefully travel at some point in post-unprecedented times
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
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

I am heading home for the holidays on … Continue reading December State of the Union

It's also so far, been a cozy month, maybe it's because I was sick, but I've spent a decent amount of time cuddled up on … Continue reading November State of the Union

I think in the future I will combine all of monthly recap style posts, the monthly empties, the what I reads in..., the financial fitness check ins, … Continue reading October State of the Union
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 … Continue reading End of Summer Bucket List
Even though I haven't lived in the USA since 2006 I still mark the start of the Christmas season by American Thanksgiving. I do not start listening to Christmas music, I do not watch holiday movies, I often don't even start my Christmas shopping before American Thanksgiving. But American Thanksgiving was this past Thursday and … Continue reading Christmas Movie Marathon
