What I read in April
I hit a reading rut in April. I think it was partly because I was trying to read (a really good) non-fiction book and I’m just slower at reading non-fiction (it took me 6 weeks to read Barack Obama’s tome of a book). But I also just wasn’t in any kind of mood to read,…

April Empties
Compared to March it looks like I didn’t use anything up this month! Mostly, I just finished up some samples that I have had for several months. The nice thing about a Project Pan is that you actually do use those random things that you have accumulated over your years of purchasing. I do see…

Mid-Week Procrastination: Earth Week Edition
We’re sticking to a theme this week (which means that next week’s MWP post will be super full of fun, random stuff- hint, hint). But the ultimate Earth Week procrastination item would be to grab some shoes, a garbage bag, and a set of tongs and a container (if you live in an area where…

Earth Week: Low Waste House Cleaning
I am a fastidious house cleaner. Maybe excessively so, I just find it so much more pleasant, but it has not escaped my desire to use less plastic. I think I have made great strides here, but there are still areas I can work on. I also don’t think that there is any increased costs…

Obsessions: April 17
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,…

Mid-Week Procrastination
This week is pretty heavy at work but I am really enjoying it! I normally hate making videos, but a) I actually suggested the video as an option and b) it’s not that bad? It’s definitely time consuming! I’ve been working on it for nearly 17 hours now and have nearly designed and animated about…

My biggest leadership lesson
I wrote in my post on National Badge Day about how and why I still volunteer with my sorority. I felt kind of fake writing it because at that point I had already announced to the organization that I was stepping away. Essentially, I felt as though I hadn’t really figured out how to balance…

Obsessions: March 20th
Whew y’all. It has been a week. If you read my last Obsessions post (my most recent post, I’m sorry a week is too long!) I mentioned that we were on the road to Thunder Bay from the Ottawa Valley. I got a job up in Northwestern Ontario, about 4 hours north of Thunder Bay!…

Black History Month Round-Up
Over on my Instagram in February 2021 I did a daily story feature of a different favourite Black creator. Sometimes it was influencers, others artists, poets, and dancers; they were almost always female. But I was choosing the people that I truly admire their content or their work and those people happened to be women.…

Mid-Week Procrastination
I really love this desk set up from Julia Berolzheimer Grace blogs about her last trip pre-pandemic, I love that she finally felt like she could share it. It was so close to everything shutting down in North America that it felt insensitive for her to share it previously, but it is so beautiful and…
