10 Goals to Complete in 2016

  It’s December 11th and there are only twenty days left in 2016, but I’m not letting that stop me from setting some eleventh-hour goals for this year and drive my productivity home. This year has been a crazy ride. I returned to Bridges feeling my life had no direction and in an extremely fragile state. I worked my ass off in counselling and on my application for a grant that would change my…

My Journey into Minimalism: Facing the Clutter

When my daughter and I moved into my two-bedroom downtown apartment just over a year ago, we had very little for possessions. A classmate of mine happened to be moving across the country two weeks after we moved in and bestowed us some necessities for the house. We also received a donation of needed household items from a women’s charity in town. Slowly our new home was coming together. We were…

I've gone insane! 30 DAYS OF BLOGGING

I’ve gone insane! 30 DAYS OF BLOGGING

The end of the semester has arrived and I survived with a decent GPA to boot. I’m very proud of myself. Returning to school as an adult is never easy. Returning as a single mother with zero familial support is another challenge altogether. Add in court dates, illnesses, IT conferences and it’s been quite the journey the last 3 months.  I’ve decided to keep stretching my writing skills over the…

I'm baa-aack

I’m baa-aack

Well, kind of. I miss writing, so I’m giving it that old college try again. Ironic since I’m incredibly busy being enrolled in college again. That’s right folks, I did it. I got my ass back into school. I’m working my way towards my Legal Assistant certification for the next twelve months and it is fantastic. I’m pushing myself and working my brain. I’m also learning more about myself and my work…

Messy Mind, Messy Life

Messy Mind, Messy Life

There’s so much pressure on people to have this perfect image online. I do not have that, online or in life. I’m a mess. I wasn’t always a mess, but somewhere along the line it happened. When it happened, where it happened isn’t important anymore. The thing is though, I don’t want to pretend my home life is perfect. Some of you know of the trials and tribulations I’ve been going through…

Re-reading a favourite with some tea and a treat. If you haven't checked out @piercebrownofficial's Red Rising and its sequels yet, do so. And be prepared for some feels. I had tears in the first two chapters. #redrising #howlers #piercebrown #tea #eveningtea #relaxing #books #bookstagram #blogger #iggppc

Officially obsessed with Snow. So many options for fun filters compared to Snapchat, and no commercial accounts - which I don't care about. I do love the stickers in Snapchat still, so I won't be dismissing it anytime soon. #apps #photoapps #filters #snow #snowapp #snapchat #appreview #quickreview
