So this is something that I did eleventy billion years ago and never got around to blogging about: I made a fabric basket for the cats’ toys! You may remember that back in the summer, Cath, Steph, and I took a sewing class and learned how to make tote bags. Well, we enjoyed it so […]
Went to the gym after work today for the first time in more than two weeks – I’d put my membership on hold for two weeks as I was away for a week in Squamish doing data collection and then away for a week in Washington for a conference – and then I’ve spent most […]
I think I want to paint my condo. Back when I bought it, I didn’t have much turnaround time between when I got possession of the place and when I had to be out the place I was renting due to some travel that I’d booked before I knew I was going to buy the […]
Wrote this earlier today, but just getting around to posting it now! Taking the Skytrain to work today for the first time in a while and totally forgot to bring my kobo! So writing a blog posting on my phone is how I’ll keep myself entertained, I guess. I’m feeling much better today than I did yesterday […]
So I’m totes sick today. It started with a sore throat and a headache yesterday, and today I’m feverish/chilled/headachey/fuzzy headed. I worked from home today – I couldn’t take a sick day because there was stuff that happened while I was away that I had to deal with – but I was able to do […]
I can’t believe it’s only 43 days until Christmas! When I was leaving my sister’s place this morning to head to the airport, we were all like “See you in a month!” I know I (and everyone else) says this pretty much every year, but this year has *really* flown by! I feel like I […]
Got to spend a lovely day for my mom’s birthday! My mom, sister, three of my aunts, and I went to see the Murder on the Orient Express ((My nephew asked what movie we were going to see and we told him it was Murder on the Orient Express and he replied, “Is that the […]
Tomorrow is my mother’s birthday, so I thought it would be fun to show up unannounced for a surprise birthday visit! The conference I was at in Washington, DC ended today and, unbeknownst to my mom, I had to fly through Toronto to go back to Vancouver. So I decided that instead of having a […]
Still at the conference, still awesome but totally exhausting, and now dealing with eleventy billion work emails that I wasn’t able to deal with while conferencing. So instead of a blog posting, I’m giving you this video to watch, because we did a sing-a-long of this with modified lyrics and it’s been stuck in my […]
I’m working on my slides for my conference presentation tomorrow ((I’m not procrastinating. You’re procrastinating!)) and I am searching some sites that provide high quality images with Creative Commons or other licenses that allow their use in presentation ((Yay respecting copyright!)). I just searched “woman thinking” and a shocking number of them have topless or […]
