This weekend, my family and I did something new. We were offered the opportunity to have a staycation at Sandman Signature Saskatoon South. Although we didn't leave our beautiful city, we were able to go to a brand new hotel, and not worry about anything. Usually if a staycation involves not leaving my home, and …
I am behind on posting, and today is actually a bit of an anxiety filled day. I have a lot of posts to catch up on. Including getting back to days of Social Distancing. I'm currently on Day 54. Things have changed a bit, but I'll get into that in a different post. I also …
I have written about my Katimavik experience a couple of times in my blog. https://thewritingmommaca.wordpress.com/2019/02/20/letter-to-my-teenage-self/ and https://thewritingmommaca.wordpress.com/2018/12/07/nanowrimo-and-katimavik/. I don't think that either of those posts were able to represent my experience. Those were more about the many feelings of a 17 year old. Many many feelings. I am still working on that in short novel …
Thailand My next adventure came right away. I was home for three weeks before leaving again. As I said in my last post, I decided to teach English in Taiwan. I wanted to keep travelling, and enjoyed making money while doing it. My friend, Katie, decided to join me. We were going to spend three …
Sometimes I think my life would have been easier if I had my son in my late 20s instead of mid 30s. (Although I didn't meet my partner until my early 30s so it wouldn't have happened either way.) However, I know that if I had chosen a different path, I would have missed out …
Travelling with a tot is always going to be an adventure. I've already spoken about our trip to Ontario with my son. However, while discussing blog post ideas with my mom she said I should talk about the best kind of fruit to throw at your son while driving. This is now a running joke. …
Day One Here I go! Day one of 28 days of writing in a row. Today's post will basically just be a 'table of contents' of what I plan to write this month. There is no particular theme to my post ideas, but because February is a month where love is the focus, I choose …
I'm trying something new next month. I'm going to write a blog post every day of February. I've tried blog challenges before. I usually find them on Pinterest. This time, I don't want to use ideas I've found on the Internet. They are never all perfect, and unfortunately in February, they're pretty much romantic themed. …
One of last weekend's goals was to slow down. It turns out, I'm not very good at slowing down. I always want to be doing something. Even if I'm watching Netflix, I don't sit down and watch it. I choose shows I've watched a hundred times so I can be writing, or cooking, or tidying …
If you follow my personal Facebook account or my public Instagram account, you may have already seen this. I am sharing it here anyway because it's one of my goals for the New Year. I haven't written them out yet, but I already know that I'd like to write LESS posts on my social media …
