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…

Reflections on 27
On my last birthday, when I turned 27, I journaled a huge reflections on 26 that was really fun to look back on this year and see that I had actually done a lot of the things I set out to do. So, today as I turn 28, I’ve been journaling my reflections on 27.…

Northern Diaries: Ojibway Provincial Park
I’ve been telling myself lately to actually go do the things that I find myself wanting to do, whether I have company or not. So this was one of the things I made myself go do. It was hellishly hot though so I just did the short trail but this is a great and very…

Obsessions: July 17th
It was a busy week and I think I’ve finally figured out why I have been so tired the past couple weeks. It is HOT and humid but there is no rain in sight to break the heat or help calm down the wildfires. It’s 31 degrees C here, which is about as hot as…

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…

Going Back to the Office
We were supposed to back into the office last Monday, it got cancelled the Friday before at the last minute because there was another change and now we aren’t going back until September 7th. However, I got all prepped to go back in (“back” as if I have ever been there before); so I thought…

Obsessions: July 10
I have been so tired this week. Every day was a struggle to get up on time, so I slept in til 11 today! I never do that, especially not up here where the sun is up at 4:30. But I clearly needed it. I hope you have a fantastic weekend planned! I was going…

Northern Diaries: Vaccine Clinics and Operation Remote Immunity!
COVID-19 vaccine clinics have been one of my favourite parts of my job so far. I’ve heard that down south they’ve gotten a little angry a few times, but everyone who has come through here in town and in community has been happy and excited to get vaccinated. Even if they are scared, they are…

Mid-Week Procrastination
Should I start numbering these? Organizing them somehow? Putting some kind of additional descriptor after a, I don’t know, colon? I feel like after what’s got to be getting to close to 20 of these Mid-Week Procrastination posts I should have them down, but hey the imposter syndrome and professional doubt have been real so…
