November 2024
It has been a long month. I spent the first half trying to exit my old job, we went back and forth a bit with them trying to keep me on staff but in the end I just had to walk away. In the latter half, I was overwhelmed and exhausted by the new job.…

October 2024
I am getting really bad at remembering to post at the end of each month. Perhaps because general life stress is keeping me preoccupied or perhaps because not all that much is worth writing about. I think October passed me by so quickly because there were added stressors, elections (here in BC, though the one…

Over It
Over what you may ask? Everything. And I do mean everything. Normally, despite my cynical opinions, I am (secretly?) optimistic about things but lately (noticeable in previous posts) I’m disappointed, grumpy and there is nothing hidden about it. I’m feeling negative about everything from work to the future to life in general. This isn’t a…

June 2024
Well June failed to step up and kick the year back onto a better path. My hope that at this halfway point in the year life would feel more settled was dashed and it is the opposite, I’m feeling more stressed and unsettled than ever. Things that I hoped would be resolved aren’t moving forward…

Maaaaaaaaay…
This month seemed so long and yet it is over as we enter June. I am still waiting to settle into my new routine, the new job and just life as it is now. The last few years have been an upheaval for many and I’m no different. Family deaths, work changes, life stress and…

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…

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.

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…
