  • 175 of 365

    So 175 days ago I started doing a second 365 photo challenge when I realized that I had it on my list of 101 things to do in 1001 days and I only had 365 left of those 1001 days, so it was now or never. As with my previous 365 day challenge, a lot of the photos are […]

  • Hair Extraordinaire!

    And now I’m just on a roll of talking about businesses that I like, so I think that I’ll make that the theme for today. Which brings me to my hair stylist, Jenny Lynn, the owner of Oh Hey Style ((As with the other postings, this comes straight from my heart – it’s not a […]

  • My manicure one month later

    Hey, remember that time that I got my nails done all fancy like? That was almost a month ago and my nails are still, to my great surprise, perfect! Of course, near the cuticle you can see that my nails have grown a bit in the past month, but other than that, they are perfectly […]

  • Backlog of Drafts

    I’ve just realized that I have 80 (!) draft blog postings in my appropriately named “Drafts” folder ((Apparently I’m a digital pack rat in addition to being a pack rat in real life.)). Some are partially written, some are just a title to remind me to blog about something. Since I’m looking for ideas for […]

  • On the TTC

    Writing this out on my iPhone on the subway, on my way to meet my friends Jen and Tanya for dinner. But I’m writing it as a note instead of as blog posting on the WordPress app because there’s no cell phone reception in the subway here in Toronto. I have been spoiled by Skytrain […]

  • Holidays Begin

    Written earlier today, on a plane where they don’t have the Internets. On a plane, heading to see the fam in Toronto for the Christmas holidays. I’m strangely antsy – we’ve only been flying for an hour so far, but I’ve alternated between deciding I should nap, then that I should read and then flipping […]

  • An Eventful Weekend

    So I posted for 29 of 30 days in National Blog Posting Month (missing the full completion only because of a technical glitch)… and then disappeared for a week. Typical. In my defence, I was finishing up all the course work for my MBA. Yup, that’s right. I have now completed all the courses for […]

  • Nails

    On Monday, I decided to treat myself to some fancy nails, as I had my grad photos taken that day ((My convocation isn’t until May, but we had to get our photos done by Dec 1 in order to be in the class composite.)) I figured that since I’d be holding scrolls and flowers and […]

  • Stuff I Want To Do When I’m Done My MBA

    As I’ve been talking about the end of my MBA program being nigh, I find myself constantly defending my claim that “I’m not going to do anymore school! I swear!” My friends and colleagues are skeptical of this claim ((I’ve had basically the same conversation with, no exaggeration, at least a dozen people in the […]
