personal finance, waste reduction, skincare, single living, and needlepoint; hopefully travel at some point in post-unprecedented times
I love a list. I love to cross things off a list, I put things on a list just to cross them off. I make lists for everything. I also don't think a list solely belongs on paper and that a "list" is more of a loose category of things like Pinterest boards, bullet journals, … Continue reading Lists I’m making in 2022
Happy weekend everyone! I am tackling Kitchen Week from Go Clean Co.'s Fall Cleaning Challenge. I may have to buy some paper towel for it, which I literally have not bought a roll of paper towel in years, I generally use reusable rags, but if my oven is as dirty as the ones on @GoCleanCo … Continue reading Saturday Scroll
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 … Continue reading Mid-Week Procrastination
Instagram obsession: @meghandono Meghan has become one of my favourite bloggers/influencers. I started following her for her sunscreen recs and her Francophile style. She had skin cancer a couple years ago (so I believe that would have put her in her early 30s, and I am rapidly approaching my late 20s) and has become super … Continue reading Obsessions: July 3rd
Well I did not write blog posts for Thursday and Friday, I had every intention, but I should have known I would be too tired after each day of vaccine clinics to do anything besides the bare minimum of taking care of myself. And the power went out after this crazy wind/rain/hail storm on Wednesday … Continue reading Obsessions: June 26

I realized that the pandemic would not be over by summer and that I needed … Continue reading Confident Bishes Unite!
This has been a very heavy week at work, I work with many Indigenous people and serve Indigenous communities and the news of the mass grave in Kamloops has hit them all very hard particularly and has hit the entire country very hard. We ended up scraping (appropriately and mostly my idea) my big project … Continue reading Mid-Week Procrastination
This was the last thing I put together before I unexpectedly stopped writing for two weeks. It wasn't planned, I had like 8 posts half-written to be finished or take photos for in my drafts and just stopped. But here we are with one of my favourite posts to put together, mid-week procrastination: a bunch … Continue reading Mid-Week Procrastination: The Return
It has been a busy week! I didn't sit down last night until 9:30! Today I am working at a COVID vaccination clinic, I'm super excited not only to help people get vaccinated but also to see humans! In person! And have interactions! It's so exciting! Aly and AJ have a new album out and … Continue reading Mid-Week Procrastination
I've noticed myself doing something the past few weekends that has been really working for me, in my head I've been calling it "gentle productivity". Meena Harris has those tweets that went viral: https://twitter.com/meenaharris/status/1376266342580412416?lang=en https://twitter.com/meenaharris/status/1388636824021524480 And I know I don't have kids or dogs or even a partner to have to do things with and … Continue reading Gentle Productivity is my New Weekend Routine and it’s Adding so Much Ease to my Life
