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 →: Testing and ADHD
I was going through a bin the other day, and I found all of my records from schooling that showed IEPs (Individual Education Plan), Assessments, Therapy records and my paperwork saying that I had to ADD inattentive (when I was six or so) and my Report diagnosing me with ADHD…

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…

So Ive been doing some training for a job I had an interview for last Thursday/Friday and im going to be starting on monday and im quite excited! Between that, spring cleaning (of walls and things), laundry, walking and all the other stuff I’ve forgotten that ive done, it’s been…

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…

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…

In my search for a job, it does feel like im rolling a stone up a hill and feeling like getting somewhere then realising I haven’t made progress at all, so I figured I’d share some of the things ive done to make the experience less annoying and stressful. This…

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…

Continue reading →: Chickadees And SunShine
The past week feels like a bit of a blur. I was with wee man and Mint and we were watching movies, playing games, cooking, going for walks and crafting. We went to a local pathway and toured it, while there we found a bunch of birds and wee man…

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…

I have several drafts (6) that ive been trying to finish up, but there’s just something off or missing from it that I can’t put my finger on. Ive tried tips from other people to not waste what time I have put into them, but nothing seems to work for…

In the past two weeks, ive been looking for some new music to listen to, and the vibe ive been going for is relaxing and calm. Ive found these artists, now some I already knew but found some songs I haven’t heard before. Yoga Lin (Presenting Yoga Lin) I like…

Continue reading →: Mondays
I woke up today feeling blah and not really here, if that makes sense, so I took it easy. I made some coffee and food; even if it’s not the healthiest meal, food is fuel, and coffee helps to wake up. I then decided to sit and finish my book…

Continue reading →: Following Serotonin Part 2?
So it’s been a bit of a depressive slump from late December to last week (always annoying but usually happens around this time). Because of this, I’ve been following the serotonin as it comes; it led to some interesting activities and some surprises. Sketching/Drawing; digital drawing is not my ideal…

Continue reading →: Where Do You Read From?
One of my favourite things to do when im sitting at night while watching tv is to see where people are reading the blog. As I haven’t been anywhere the last twoish years with the pandemic going on, it’s like a bit of a tour to see where I’ve travelled…

Continue reading →: The Witness
I have been in a cozy reading mood, and I decided to reread The Witness by Nora Roberts. Ive said it before about Nora Roberts, and I will say it again, I love their writing! I highly recommend this book as it’s just delightful and makes you want to sit…

Continue reading →: Self Isolating and Keeping Busy
This past week I’ve been self-isolating, and while I’ve been self-isolating, it’s been interesting. I normally dont mind staying home but felt a need to be social, yet I was so tired that I didn’t want to. I spent days listening/half-watching Rizzoli & Isles/Midsomer Murders and a handful of other…

On the past weekend (well, now two weekends, I started this last monday), the truckers and protestors were jamming up the downtown core, blocking access to public transport, interrupting people trying to get to work, go grocery shopping, get to appointments, among other things. Some may be peaceful, but that…

Continue reading →: Music Streaming Services
I’ve been using Spotify for about four or so years now. I’ve been relatively happy with the service, but the last two updates have had me feeling annoyed, and with the other things in the news lately, im not comfortable continuing to use the service. As I’ve been thinking of…

Continue reading →: Slipping and Memories
I got talking with Cinaed this weekend about random things while cooking, moving some stuff around and running around. Part of the weekend brought up memories of being a kid watching my dad cooking while listening to AC/DC, Lynyrd Skynyrd, Ozzy Osborne and more. It was a cozy weekend, and…

I’ve been lucky to have…

Continue reading →: Im Not Sure What To Call This …
I’ve been thinking of changing my career, but im unsure of what id like to do. I could do trades; however, math isn’t my strong suit and im not the most coordinated, so there would most likely be more injuries than work done. I’m tech-savvy enough to get by, but not…

Continue reading →: Emotions, Writing and ADHD
Emotions are strong with me; I either feel 1000% or 0%. When talking with someone or getting the feelings after time processing what I’ve been told, I know that it’s something I can’t necessarily change, but I find it very frustrating and annoying to deal with. I am a cautious…
