Simplifying and Downsizing

March 4, 2010

Well, my new place is a basement suite in the corner of a house not even the whole basement, and it’s about 500 sq feet. … I will be sending quite a bit of furniture back home with my Dad to go into storage, but I also need to figure out some space-savers when it comes to stuff that I’m keeping.

Ten on Tuesday

February 2, 2010

I have some really deep posts swirling around in my head but I was having a lot of trouble articulating them in a blog post last night. Writers block, I suppose.
Anyways, I’ve decided to participate in another installment of Ten on Tuesday. I always love reading these and really need to participate more often!

1. What is [...]

Happy Birthday, Webster!

October 28, 2009

Well, it’s not *actually* his birthday. But a year ago (I don’t remember the exact date, unfortunately) Eric and I drove over to the North Shore, down a creepy back alley in the dark and a man handed a tiny, orange kitten over to us. Anyone who saw us probably would have thought we were dealing drugs.
It was [...]

When he thinks no-one is watching…

August 24, 2009

“Hey, that looks like a toy in there!!!”

“I’m going in!”

“Got it!”

“Best toy, ever!!”

“Uh oh, busted!”

Even on my crappiest days, Webster never fails to make me smile!

Dewey Readmore Books

August 12, 2009

Last week I finished reading Dewey. It’s a book about a cat who lived in a library in Spencer, Iowa. He was stuffed in the library drop-box on the coldest night of winter when he was only eight weeks old, the pads on his poor little feet were frost-bitten and he was so dirty he looked [...]

Funky town

August 6, 2009

I’ve been a bit neglectful of the blog lately and the reason is, I’m in a funk. A big one.
I wrote two semi-whiney, bleh posts last week and I didn’t want to continue that trend this week so rather than writing about how blue I feel I decided not to write at all.
I’ve been very [...]

Weekend update

June 15, 2009

- I started watching the first season of Gossip Girls this weekend. I’m obsessed.
- I’ve started joining a local trail running group for runs on Saturday mornings. This has been a challenge for me because a) the runs are at 7:00 am and b) we have been running for 60-80 minutes each time on hills [...]

Animal cruelty issues: How do you feel?

March 20, 2009

I was doing my daily news reading yesterday when I came across this article. It’s about two german shepherds that were locked in a garage in Vancouver, left to starve to death. One dog was already dead when police found them, the other resorted to eating elastic bands off the floor. The one that was [...]

Why curiosity killed the cat…

March 3, 2009

I don’t think you can fully understand that statement until you get a cat.
Webster in the dishwasher.
Webster in the washing machine.

Doing “down dog” on my yoga mat. (aka: Scratching the shit out of it). This is when I want to kill him.
If it’s something he can climb INSIDE of and I open it, [...]
