In a few short days, I enter my 30s. It seems insane to me that I'm about to embark on my fourth decade, and I'm not sure whether I still feel like a spring chicken or I've matured into a summer chicken. Either way, I'm getting older and as of Tuesday this cat is 30. [...]
I have never been so glad to see the end of a year. We have a running saying in our household that the even years always seem to be the worst. 2018 has taken the cake as the mother of all bad years for me. I am not sorry to see the tail end of [...]
AWOL /ā, wôl/ adjective; "absent from one's post but without intent to desert." I have been hella absent on all my social media for months now, and have completely slacked on blogging more than anything else. I've been either working 12 hour days for 7/7 rotation, or back east taking care of my mama, or [...]
I have been feeling very antsy and restless being solo at home this past week so here is my first brain dump of the new year. Don't get me wrong, I love our house. It just somehow feels less like home when I'm alone. We're in the process of remodelling the basement which is super [...]

And you just can’t describe what it is that’s making you feel so unusual. It’s a hard feeling to explain, but [...]
I think the last post I published was April maybe? I haven't gotten any better about being consistent and I doubt that will be changing any time soon so I'm putting that goal on the back burner for now. It's been a whirlwind of a year, and this summer consisted of yet another move (which [...]
One of my favourite things about my father was his poetry. He had such a beautiful way with words, and he used to write my Ma love letters and poems and paint her pictures. He was so raw and open and honest with his love for her, and he swept her off her feet and [...]
My personal qualms with social media and the three main issues I have with its ridiculousness.
I've been wanting to write about my experience and opinions on the fitness competition I did in 2015 for EVER now, but as we all know I slack and get "writer's block" aka I'm lazy. And this is going to be a pretty detailed post so I had to wait for the inspiration to strike [...]
