personal finance, waste reduction, skincare, single living, and needlepoint; hopefully travel at some point in post-unprecedented times
I did not read a lot in September, I picked up so many different books trying to get into one, but I just did not want to read and couldn't get into any of them. The only book I read was The Song of Achilles by Madeline Miller. This is a book that is all … Continue reading What I read in September: Song of Achilles

If you're anything like me Wednesday's are the worst. So far from the weekend but enough into the week that any reserves you built up the previous weekend are done. Although hopefully this week isn't too bad, if you live in Ontario like me, Monday was Family Day, a holiday, and I think it's President's … Continue reading Mid-Week Procrastination
