  • Old Clothing Fits

    So, one of the things I did recently was pick up some clothing that I’ve stored at my cousin’s place for over two years. It was a box, mostly filled with clothing that I didn’t even fit into when I bought it, but instead of returning, I held onto, in hopes that I would get… Read more

  • Distributel

    Georgetown doesn’t have many good high speed Internet options. It is really a Bell and Cogeco stronghold. I contacted Acanac as well as Teksavvy, but neither of them could offer me a cable Internet connection. I am not really against DSL, but because I’m not planning on getting a phone line, the dry loop fees… Read more

  • Money Stress

    The hardest thing sometimes is looking at my finances. During the last few years, I’ve spent far too freely, and with the added cost of moving, I’m feeling the financial pinch. Soon, I’ll be sending a bunch of money to the government for the taxes I need to pay them on this years income. On… Read more

  • Dad’s Old Fashioned Root Beer

    Most people that know me, know that I’m a huge fan of Root Beer. My favourite being Barq’s, but most varieties are usually up my alley and their tastes are all so very different. Today, I had a bottle of Dad’s Old Fashioned Root Beer, a variety that I had liked as a child. Unfortunately,… Read more

  • Settling In

    Now that I’ve been in my apartment for nearly two weeks, I’m starting to settle in. I am still waiting to have an Internet connection at my apartment, but beyond that, I’m doing well. I have all my stuff in my apartment, and it doesn’t look like it is going to be over full. I… Read more

  • Pinterest

    I’ve been looking at Pinterest for a long time with interest. I avoided signing up because it looked really like a club for girls and women to post things they found pretty or interesting. And I am such a text focused person versus an image focused person, as many of you might have noticed by… Read more

  • Looking for an Apartment

    So, my digital nomad plan isn’t going to go the way I expected. I had thought that I would take a few more months and travel around a bit, but I never assumed I would be in a relationship, and even while in a relationship, I never thought it would be serious enough to warrant… Read more

  • Goals for 2013

    After reading Annie’s sister’s blog post reflecting on 2012 (Looking back. And forward.), and discussing her goals for 2013, I figured I should do the same. In 2012, I lost nearly forty pounds of weight. In the next year, I am hoping to lose at least another twenty. My goal for weight loss isn’t a… Read more
