The Blog is Haunted
Weird stuff is broken. It’s not always broken, just sometimes. Other, more important bloggy stuff is broken all the time and if I had any wits about me, I would be at the very end of them. If you can see this I’ve managed to find a temporary work-around. More likely, though, I just got …

Possible Writers’ Block Work-Around + Reboot-My-Life Hack AT THE SAME TIME?!
I’m going to wave my magic wand and declare that this next mini-project will guide my life. I may be crazy, yes, but I’m interesting. Kylegoing my future!! Am I rich? Meh – maybe? Depends on your definition of “rich”, but by mine, I’m already there. Am I famous?! Gawd, I hope not. Share my …

It’s Been a Minute…
It’s been a looooong 3 years. Years full of drama and angst and writers’ block and more angst and “over-coming” and “crumbling”. And angst. I’m slowly climbing out. I’m getting rid. I’m sweeping house. I’m blowing the dust off. No promises (not to mention “no readers” anymore, I don’t think, but if you’re still here, …

I’m Really, Really Busy Doing All the Wrong Things
I’ll be spending a lot of time playing catch-up with my web spaces at the rate I’m going. All I want to do is “fix” the state of my belfry apartment. It’s all wrong in arrangement for anything creative, whether crafting or writing. I spend most of my time in the greenhouse, getting ready for …

Blah…
Some days, it’s this dreary for weeks. It feels that way, this time of year, although “this time of year” is earlier than usual. This wet, yucky weather doesn’t generally happen around here until April, but that’s just more proof to me that we’ve most certainly broken the planet. The weather has been wonky for …

Today’s Post brought to you by MapMyWalk
I’ve been using the “Map My Walk” app of late, to see the maps of where Kaylee and I go every day. I’ll likely not bother for long, as truthfully, it’s usually the same route every day, with us sometimes adding an extra block or two now and again when the dog seems to have …

The “Accountability” Post – March 1-5, 2021
I quit using Facebook in order to single-handedly resurrect the Blogosphere. I was pleased to discover during this first week of March 2021, that some die-hards are still out there. I`m going to build my blog roll back up and start rekindling old relationships. I`ve started putting the Gift Shop store-front back up. It will …

It was a Morning…!
Kyla ordered Carson a new bed, and it came in yesterday… all one thousand pounds (and one thousand pieces) of it. The Purolator guy was kind enough to offer to heft it into the apartment for me – I don’t think he realized he had to navigate the huge and awkward thousand-pound shipping carton up …

Today’s the Day!
I’m done with Facebook - it sucked so much time out of my day that there wasn’t any room left for anything else. I fought starting a Facebook account because I just didn’t want to believe that it was going to be so popular that all my blog friends would embrace the shiny new thing and abandon …

Post Office Wants to Bring Back Pen Pals!
I’m excited about this! Check out this Sootoday article concerning Canada Post… Why would this news excite me? Well, one reason is that aside from having fond memories of getting postcards and letters in the mail from the time I was a small child, right up to my early 20s when I eventually lost touch …
