The Art of Moving

March 11, 2010

How to make moving an art form:

2. Feed her, and yourself, mini-eggs, nacho chips and pepsi for dinner.
3. Spend approximately 1.5 hours putting together a shelf that looks like this:

If you think that shelf looks a [...]

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.

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.

Webster really missed Eric, he followed him everywhere!

Living Alone

September 25, 2009

I’ve been officially living on my own for three weeks now. It’s a number of things all at once; it’s lonely, it’s relaxing, it’s tidy, it’s fun, it’s scary, it’s boring.
Do I miss Eric’s presence? Absolutely. Do I miss running the dishwasher every. single. day. and constantly putting the toilet seat down? Not so much.
I went [...]

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 [...]
