personal finance, waste reduction, skincare, single living, and needlepoint; hopefully travel at some point in post-unprecedented times
I have decided to just go with the flow, on everything. Work stuff that is out of my control, my blog schedule, so when the last day of August came on a Wednesday and I knew that is when I would want my August in Review post to go up I just decided to go … Continue reading Saturday Scroll: 09/03/22
We have a much better week of content this week, perfect for my first full week of work in two weeks. It also is worth noting that I wrote this while listening to the now 20 year old debut album from Avril Lavigne, so no, I can't chill out, and yes, that is what I'm … Continue reading Mid-Week Procrastination vol. 3
Firstly and most importantly: A Ukraine explainer, the historical context and what's happening now; and how to help and more options. Now, I write this blog to be an escape, from unemployment and living with my parents (how it started), to being a rapidly burning out public health worker in a pandemic. This blog provides … Continue reading Saturday Scroll
Paris Fashion Week is happening, and it is stunning, simple, and unbearably chic. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ykYI5iMUwdk I haven't watched this yet, but it will be my Saturday brunch companion. The fact that I am single does not make actively dating a requirement for my life. A thorough bashing of Canadian architecture. I think I may have just … Continue reading Saturday Scroll: 01/29/22
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, … Continue reading Obsessions: July 24
I don't have any pithy remarks to kick this off, so let's just get into the procrastination shall we? Yesterday was a perfect day, the 20th anniversary of Legally Blonde, definitely in my top 10 movies of all time. The outfits, the cast, the music, all *chef's kiss* perfection. Related: Were Elle and Vivian supposed … Continue reading Mid-Week Procrastination
This feels kind of ironic to write this week as this week I do not need anything to get me through the week as a) Monday was a holiday for me and b) today I am heading up to one of the communities we serve, North Spirit Lake First Nation, to help with youth vaccine … Continue reading Mid-Week Procrastination
So this is super late - oops, but I totally forgot that today was Wednesday and then I got a last minute appointment to have my summer tires put on and drove my car out there and then decided to walk back. The walk took two hours. It started raining. I got completely soaked. And … Continue reading Mid-Week Procrastination
This hits differently now that I am employed again. Wednesday has more hope, structure, and less dread than it did while I was unemployed, but I'm writing this paragraph on Monday evening and when I woke up this morning I struggled hard. I was exhausted. I'm not sure if it's moving, starting work, quarantine, or … Continue reading Mid-Week Procrastination
