Continue reading →: Journals and The Nightmare Before Christmas
Im finished the eighth journal ive had; I write nearly every night (unless im really sick or too tired). Ive primarily written in books that I found cheap in a bundle off amazon or something from the dollar tree/dollar store, which isn’t bad; they were useful, convenient and handy, so…

Continue reading →: The Healing Power of Pancakes and The Lion King
It has happened, I hoped it would miss me, but the cold/flu bug going through my coworkers has hit me. It started yesterday with a sore throat, dizzy, essentially feeling like ive been run over and in the same mood. Today I feel like I was run over again on…

Continue reading →: Writing and Happy Realizations.I wanted to test my writing, so I did some little challenges, and the results are pretty good. In the last year, my writing style has gotten less chaotic and more structured than it was; my grammar is still a bit funky at times, but it’s a good deal better…

Continue reading →: Sunflowers, Mac and Cheese and more.
It’s going on about eight years since my grandmother (let’s call her Mae) passed away, she passed after a long battle with cancer, and a lot has happened since then. I think of her daily, every time I see a sunflower and when I do/get my nails done. Im told…

It was my birthday a few days ago; it’s been an interesting week so far. Work’s been busy and keeping me on my toes (i got my new shoes, so thats been fun!); between the pup and my other hobbies, it’s been a little easier to balance and enjoy the…

Continue reading →: Let’s Talk About Myths Baby! and Tomato Sauce
I woke up a bit later than intended; I tend to catch up on the sleep im missing on my first day off. I decided to make a sausage and rice stir fry with a tomato sauce (loaded with veggies and some spice), it’s simmering as I write this, and…

As it’s Autumn and it’s getting into the cozy sweater weather, cooler rains and the transition that never lasts as long as I hope it will, I thought id share a recipe. For this, you will need: One package of Turkey, Half an onion A bulb of garlic About a…

Continue reading →: Writing and ??
I’ve been having many ideas for what to write while im working (and not able to write things down) or when im sleeping/just waking up and lose the idea as soon as I try to write it down. I dont really know what to share as I feel like some…

Continue reading →: The Becoming and Random Life Bits.
I haven’t finished the book yet, but it’s a wonderful read, and im enjoying it so far. It’s been a strange few days, so im looking forward to having some more time to enjoy the book and do some things I haven’t found the time/energy to do specific tasks. Im…

Continue reading →: A Review of The Awakening (The Dragon Heart Legacy Book 1) by Nora RobertsI thought I read the majority of Nora Roberts books; however, I was surprised to find a new book that ive yet to read. It starts slow but paints a beautiful picture of the story and how it changes throughout the chapters. Breen is a wonderful character, and as I…

Continue reading →: Burnout and Career Paths
Im not sure what to call this post; I have lots of thoughts im going to try to get out as legible as I can. I was not feeling the best yesterday; I napped for about 4 or 5 hours (which is not something I typically do), and I feel…

Continue reading →: Cozy Reads
Ive been in a cozy reading mood lately, and that included books ive previously read or ones that are more like Betty Hechtman’s A Crochet Mystery style. It’s been nice, and light with a touch of romance with more of what happens in life, which is nice to read about…

I was bored recently and decided to put something that looked meh on in the background, and Victoria’s Secret Angels and Demons caught my eye, so I put it on. It’s something I remember well from ads, and I remember my dad had a bras club card with them from…

Continue reading →: Summer Feelings and Random ThoughtsI got to thinking on my way home from work that I had some inspiration and motivation to write. I was sitting over at the dog park/sports area by my place with the wee pup and enjoying some sunshine and watching someone with a young (im guessing eight weeks or…

Ive been radio silent on the blog, I tried to write a few things, but I just didn’t have the words flowing, and I wanted to post something regardless, but I couldn’t do it as it felt wrong not wholly to be behind something ive put onto the internet. It’s…

Continue reading →: Happiness and Slow Mornings
I started today by sleeping in, slowly getting out of bed, having a quick shower and taking the dog out. We played for about 30 minutes outside, met a few people, had a cup of coffee, and got my laundry started. Im sitting down after a short walk and waiting…

I’m not sure what to call this; I know that I haven’t been writing too much, and I have had some blockage creatively. Ive been having a lot of technical issues that im still trying to fix, my keyboard is permanently stuck in french and fn mode, and nothing ive…

Continue reading →: Puppy Training and Some Thoughts
Puppy training is ongoing, and while it’s going, it’s not going as fast as Mint would like as mint is working longer hours away from home, and while he listens to me, she would like the puppy to listen to her more. When she picked up the puppy, she asked…

Continue reading →: Tapas and Dramas
Tapas is a wonderful app for finding all types of comics; I lean towards slice of life or romance over most genres. One of my favourite comics was turned into a Netflix show, and I put off watching it till I had time to sit and watch cause I had…

Continue reading →: My Dream House
While on my walk the other day, it got me thinking of my dream home, it’s nothing too fancy, but it’s very comfortable. I would love to live in a cottage by the water that feels like a hobbit hole with some newer tech to make life a little easier…

Continue reading →: Walks and Dogs
It’s my weekend, and I had a funny experience that I wanted to share with ya’ll. I finished work on Saturday early enough that there was enough daylight left to go for a walk on a nature trail nearby. We started our walk (3.3 miles all in all), and on…

Continue reading →: Libraries and Celtic Traditions
I decided to use my first day off in 10 to run some errands yesterday, and it was a pretty good run around. I got a library card and took a tour of the branch. It’s a beautiful location with various movies, audiobooks and more available on the website, which…

Continue reading →: Some Rainy Day Thoughts
I was at work earlier just doing my thing, and I saw a gentleman taking his wife’s arm as they walked to the car; he was helping her in and standing in front of her blocking the rain from hitting her till she was settled then going around and getting…

Continue reading →: Quiet Nights In and Curling Up
I’ve been having quiet nights in the last few nights, and I’ve been writing or cleaning or anything but relaxing, so I decided to curl up under a fuzzy blanket and put a movie on and do something creative. Tonight I got part of a rug im making done, and…

Continue reading →: Laundromats
I haven’t been at a laundromat for quite a while, and it’s a charming place! The owners are generally lovely people and very welcoming once you step in the door, and the place seems to have a universal smell (laundry soap, clean clothes, meadows and mint) while changing size, the…

Continue reading →: Spring Needs To Come Soon!
In Canada, spring likes to tease us; it starts slow, then a few days later, it will be below freezing with ice rain, possibly hail but be bright and sunny, melting it all away the following day. It feels like a false hope but the sunshine and wearing fewer layers…

Continue reading →: Im Not Sure What To Call This Part 2?
I feel like as ive gotten older, the definition of being an adult seems to change. As a kid, I thought it was freeing; you didn’t have anyone telling you what to do, where to go and you had little stress. I used to think that being an adult was…

Continue reading →: Things I Forget Sometimes
I have an interview today, and I was given a tip to write out the things in your control and what’s not in your control before anything where you may be nervous. It does help significantly for me, it seems strange to begin, but it helps especially if you’re the…

Continue reading →: Music That Moves Me Part 5?
In the past two posts I’ve mentione I’ve been walking more and using that time to listen to some favourites and new jams. It’s been an eclectic collection this month so far; it’s a mix of stuff I grew up with and things I just found putting music on shuffle.…

Continue reading →: What I’ve Been Up To The Past Few Weeks
I have a very mixed up sense of direction; it can lead to interesting adventures with me trying to find my way back to where I started. I’d love to say I can find my way in the small town I grew up in, but I get lost there to…

Continue reading →: Croissants and Gloomy Mornings
I woke up this morning, and I didn’t feel like cooking much, so I decided to make croissants. I can’t tell you how much joy and happiness it has brought me cause it’s a bit blah looking outside and its more of a curled up cozy day. The Croissants are…

Ive been making a plan for changing my way im going for a good little bit; life being what it is has rushed part of the plan, so im MacGyvering the plan as I figure it out; it’s far from being complete, but it’s somewhat solid. It’s not a bad…

Continue reading →: Pumpkin Pie Ice Cream and Seasons
So you can buy many types of ice cream and customise as well depending on where you get it. We made a pumpkin pie ice cream with graham cracker crumbles, and it is just amazing; it’s not as sweet as you’d think either, considering there’s molasses and some sugar in…
