New Goals, Baby-Inspired
I’m now 32 and we have a baby and so much has changed! Obviously my 33rd year will be dominated by baby adventures… there will be so many firsts, and challenges, and memories to cherish! Thus when I thought about my goals, it seemed natural that baby would take the forefront. That said, I also […]
Unexpected Luxuries (or why I didn’t get all my goals completed last year)
A year ago things like diamonds, private jets and fancy cars would have topped the list when I thought of luxury. Taking incredible vacations and having endless funds and not ever having to work anymore would have also been considered. Certainly, the act of setting and completing goals wouldn’t have even crossed my mind. It’s funny how […]
Life Loofah’s Lost Months (aka That Time I Had a Baby)
I birthed a baby y’all! Wahoo! These past few weeks with our brand new baby boy have been amazing and frustrating and tiring and exhilarating all at once. And when he’s cooing and smiling and wiggling, time seems to fly by. But when he’s uncontrollably crying and I’m in pain from breast feeding and I’m exhausted […]
There’s No Time Like the Present
I spoiled myself yesterday with this most beautiful bouquet of flowers! It wasn’t because I was feeling down and needed a pick-me-up. It wasn’t a reward for some job well done or a special occasion. It wasn’t because I’m pregnant and hormonal, or because I needed to stop at the flower store anyways. It was just because.
Framing Our Decor Situation
One of my favourite ways to make a house (or a townhouse) feel like a home is to put pictures up on the walls. A few years ago in our previous house, I embarked on a risky endeavour creating two collages on the walls of our living room/front hallway. I briefly tried out some arrangements […]
Gratitude Gems: Happy Birthday to Me!
Welcome to Gratitude Gems, where I show a little appreciation for the good things in my life! It was my birthday yesterday, and I have lots to be thankful for! I got to hang about in my pajamas for as long as I wanted, and I played video games, and I read, and I got lots […]
Wayward Goals
Over the course of this year, I’ve set out to accomplish a lot of goals. Some of those goals are even lists in amongst themselves, and so the list really is quite lengthy. As I near my 32nd birthday, I’ve been considering how best to approach completing as many as possible on that list, and […]
The Chess Adventures Continue…
I sure am a glutton for punishment sometimes. If last year’s goals taught me anything, it’s that sometimes forcing the issue really doesn’t help. Take chess for example. Sure, I learned to play chess, and it got me spending more time with my hubby doing something he likes to do, but did I ever come […]
32nd Year, 32 New Goals
I’m 31! Yep, my birthday was almost a month ago already, which just goes to show how time flies when we’re super busy! We just moved at the end of March, so since the new year our lives have been consumed with finding a new place, getting things at our old place in order, organizing, […]
