  • My Deck is Now a Pool

    Luna is getting some serious cat business done and I’m sitting down to write this post. It’s not exactly how I had planned to spend my day off, but all my plans for today are fuzzed due to the torrential rains outside! Weather in Canada is always a good topic of conversation, but this is […]

  • Scoot on over to the shop blog…

    Hey folks, it’s been a while. Yes, I’m still pissed about Rogers (post below) and they haven’t done anything to help me. I am definitely switching providers when my contract is up. I’ve been away from here for a bit because real life has been demanding a lot of me lately! I got that new […]

  • Yup, I’m at it again + cat photos

      Well, I’m still pretty bored with things these days. So I found another random item to paint. Above is my lost, forlorn chair. It came with the apartment when I moved in 4 years ago and was ugly in it’s unfinished state. A chair with good bones, though. I reupholstered it Red Green style […]

  • Why I’ve Been Flaky

    I’m such a flake. I haven’t been around at all. My reader has a backlog of 3000+ posts to go through, my poor PR reps are wondering where I’m at, and I haven’t been on Twitter for ages! But it was all for a good reason, I swear! Most of my longtime readers know that […]

  • How much is my purse worth?

    This is an interesting little meme going around the internet right now, several bloggers that I read (FB, Asian Pear) have tallied up the approximate costs of everything they regularly carry in their purses. It seems the average total of all items for most gals is around $300, but since my purse alone is $300 […]

  • Moving Day!

    Well, today’s the big day! My old, financially-unreliable roommate is moving out, and the new one is moving in! What’s funny is that it seems everyone else had the same idea for this weekend! My street is positively filled with moving vans, giant garbage heaps of old furniture and people milling about with boxes! It’s […]

  • Oh Hello, February

    Ahh, I can finally get back on track! Can you believe that January is over already??? At times it seemed like it was dragging on, but now it feels like it went by in a flash! Both me and my blog turned another year older, I had a great birthday party, several blogger meet ups, […]

  • Where did my week go?

    Oh my gosh I can’t believe it’s Thursday. I feel like I’m caught in some kind of time bubble. Yesterday it felt like the week was already over, but today it feels like it went too fast! I’ve been pretty busy this week with work (things are finally picking up. Yay!) and with other after-work […]

  • Hoarders

    I just finished watching a couple of episodes of Hoarders, and I can’t help but think how interesting the show is, and how engaging. It’s such an emotional thing for these people, and I find that watching the show makes me emotional too. I sat back and watched as we toured the homes of hoarders; […]

  • Random thoughts from people our age

    Just got this forwarded in an email to me and I had to share. It’s just TOO true. -I wish Google Maps had an “Avoid Ghetto” routing option. -More often than not, when someone is telling me a story all I can think about is that I can’t wait for them to finish so that […]
