personal finance, waste reduction, skincare, single living, and needlepoint; hopefully travel at some point in post-unprecedented times
I started doing Project Pan around the same time that I started this blog, not because I started the blog, but because I moved, pretty far, twice in three months and was seriously disturbed by how much space all of my products took up in my move. And how many products I had that I … Continue reading Two Years of Project Pan
What a week, I think I hate a short week. They are so rushed, I don't know if a four-day work week would be better or worse than a five-day work week. This is a heavier one, but why inflation is so persistent. The best Tom Hanks movies. Which had to be such a hard … Continue reading Saturday Scroll: 10/14/22
It's Sephora sale time! I have always thought that there is a privilege in being able to shop sales. Being able to afford to stock up on your normal products and try out some new things with less financial risk because you got 20 or 15% off.

September felt like a big use-up month. I think that is more because of the GoCleanCo fall challenge and cleaning out my bathroom (I didn't include those items in here, I didn't use them up, but I might do a round-up of what I'm getting rid of in that clean out to see if we … Continue reading September Empties
These are back, it only took a couple weeks, but I've decided I miss these in the middle of the week. I love these so much, a Wednesday pick-me-up, a booster to get through the week. Also, knowing I was doing this, I didn't publish on Saturday, so we have a week and a half … Continue reading Mid-Week Procrastination: WFH, #FreeBritney, and skin care
