  • March 2024

    Doh! Missed another month; not that March is a very exciting one for me, just taxes, taxes, taxes… And chilling with Lucy, while we stare out at those crazy birds that keep entering the backyard without our permission.

  • February 2024

    I mentally missed the end of the month, not at work, there I was very aware of the end of February because it is the deadline for tax slip filing, but here I missed it. I had been on a good run of posting at least monthly. So let’s pretend it is still February when…

  • January 2024

    The more orbits of the Sun I do, the more I realize that my brain doesn’t align with the “new year” starting on January 1st. Yes, I live in a Western society that ascribes to this calendar new year, but even if I take time off over the holiday season I still start January exhausted…

  • Year’s End Is Nigh

    I don’t know about you but I’m ready for a new year. I’m hoping my Christmas stocking will be filled with tasty treats and a million dollars. It won’t be, because I haven’t had a Christmas stocking in years so instead I’ll hope for a new year that has less stress, more happiness and lots…

  • November 2023

    This has been an absolutely exhausting month (on top of a year of irritating months). It started with my being disappointed by someone who I thought was a better person than they turned out to be. They took a multi-year professional relationship and made a number of decisions leading to its destruction, while also making…

  • Happy Hallowe’en

    October has been another crazy month, in an already chaotic year. I’m just waiting for this year to be over to hopefully start the next one with a fresh outlook since there are some changes happening starting in November which I’m hoping are for the best.

  • As Requested…

    She looks like an angel but behind that cute facade is a food driven monster. 😉

  • Attempts

    I have tried to write a post this month on numerous occasions. I open the window, stare at the blank page, get distracted by something, try to refocus, stare some more at the screen but eventually abandon the effort closing the window. Is it because I don’t have anything to say? No. I could probably…

  • Just Another Tuesday

    I’m bored. With what you may ask? With everything I would answer. You would think, that is not possible, there is so much in the universe, how could one possibly get bored of everything? It’s like this, once you are a little bored with one thing, you start to become bored with all the other…

  • Ugh

    June was disappointing, well not the month itself but it encompassed a bunch of disappointing/irritating occurrences so yeah… The second half of 2023 kicks off tomorrow and I could use some more positive happenings for the next six months. I think the whole world could really. I’ve tuned my news feeds dramatically to avoid being…
