personal finance, waste reduction, skincare, single living, and needlepoint; hopefully travel at some point in post-unprecedented times
I missed this post last week, I wrote last week about getting out of a funk, and then promptly continued to be in one, but I spent last weekend really working on things that were bothering me (and while my tailbone still hurts when I sit on it, my back doesn't hurt anymore which means … Continue reading The Friday Edit: Vol 8
What I did// This week was all about work and rest. We were doing this intense, I don't know, they are calling it a retreat, but it is wayy too intense for that. There is nothing relaxing or rejuvenating about it. It has been rough - between the back pain and the subject matter it's … Continue reading The Friday Edit: Vol. 7
What I Did This Week// This week was all work and routines focused. On Monday, I had to get up at 6am for work, like that was the absolute latest minute I could get out of bed. But then for the rest of the week a little voice in my head said "What if we … Continue reading The Friday Edit: Vol. 3
What I Did This Week This week has been completely focused on getting back to real life after vacation. Unpacking, cleaning (I've washed my bedding like 8 times because Mr. Montana has been exercising his anger through bodily functions on the bed), resetting my routines, and restarting at work. And I am already tired again … Continue reading The Friday Edit: Vol. 2
I am so excited for this weekend, I need to sleep and not talk to anyone. My voice is gone. I don't know why, but every time I get sick I lose my voice. In high school, I used to keep a whiteboard in my locker to carry with me. Also, no one talks about … Continue reading Saturday Scroll: 11/05/22
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
What a weird week, I didn't realize that yesterday was a federal holiday, I would have taken two more days off to take two full weeks off. But given that it was Truth and Reconciliation Day and I work for an Indigenous organization, it felt right to be back at work for it. I don't … Continue reading Saturday Scroll: 10/01/22
I am at the point where I am not wondering "Am I the Drama?", and started asking are these external factors the chaos or am I the chaos. I am severely overwhelmed. But I am slowly but surely making it through. I don't currently have Apple TV+, but this show, Gutsy, is very intriguing to … Continue reading Saturday Scroll: 09/10/22
I have decided to just go with the flow, on everything. Work stuff that is out of my control, my blog schedule, so when the last day of August came on a Wednesday and I knew that is when I would want my August in Review post to go up I just decided to go … Continue reading Saturday Scroll: 09/03/22
Sorry this is so late! I packed up all my work stuff from my pet sit and took it home, including apparently my personal laptop charger. So my computer died on Friday night when I was working on this. Then when I finished my pet sit and got home I stripped my bed and washed … Continue reading Saturday Scroll: 04/30/22
