personal finance, waste reduction, skincare, single living, and needlepoint; hopefully travel at some point in post-unprecedented times
I feel like this summer, particularly June and July, we really started to see places, especially Alberta and the USA going back to their lifestyles pre-pandemic. I don't really feel like that has been the case in Ontario, especially not for me.

How does time move so slowly and yet so quickly at the same time?! I am still over here thinking that 2022 is two years from now but we are in the second week of August 2021!

Normally I write this post on Friday nights, but the news of our lockdown being extended made me not do anything last night. I agree that lockdown should be extended, we need further public health measures because this is the worst the pandemic has ever been in Ontario. Our new cases daily, our hospitalizations daily, … Continue reading Obsessions: April 17
This week I am feeling both the joy of warmer temperature and sunshine that actually has some heat to it and still very much running into the pandemic wall and remnants of seasonal doldrums. However, Monday was International Women's Day which means that there are all kinds of lovely stories about women on the internet, … Continue reading Mid-Week Procrastination: Engagements, Babies, and Agatha All Along
